Infrared Heating: The Innovative solution to damp and mould in your home
Owning or renting a home comes with a multitude of questions, including what the best type of heating is, the most affordable options, and, for listed buildings, whether certain types of heating can be installed due to building restrictions. If the property you have purchased has been out of use for years, it might have a literal growing problem: mould. Choosing the best heating for your home can be a headache, but we have an innovative solution: Infrared Heating.
What is Infrared Heating?
Infrared heating is a relatively new method of heating in the UK. It works by providing heat from panels as electricity is converted into Infrared energy to evenly warm up the room, emitting heat after only 30 seconds. In contrast to conventional heaters, they function efficiently by heating surfaces directly rather than the air. Not only does it save between 30-60% of consumer’s annual energy usage to decrease bills, but it is possible to install in listed properties.
Infrared heating has also been shown to have numerous health benefits. When the body absorbs Infrared heat, it increases blood circulation, enhances the immune system, and reduces joint pain and inflammation. There’s also no need to stress about mould you have in your homes, as infrared heating panels can tackle this issue too!
Infrared Heating and Mould Reduction
Mould in homes is a common issue, but infrared heating panels can help tackle this problem.
Take the latest case study: an infrared heating installation in a Homes program for a trial to reduce damp and mould. Prior to the installation, ways to remove/prevent damp from the property were identified. The subject of the trial, a vacant 2-bedroom property, had existing storage heaters removed and replaced with infrared heating panels. The results were astounding.
The results of the trial say it all: Infrared heating is the way to go. Energy saving with infrared heating panels is incredible in comparison to existing Gas, ECO 7 heaters. It’s not just energy-efficient but also effective in mould reduction.
