Baildon Methodist Church Testimonial
Transforming Church Heating: A Case Study at Baildon Methodist Church, Shipley
Historic buildings like Baildon Methodist Church carry not only architectural beauty but also heating challenges. Thick stone walls, high ceilings, and delicate fixtures often make traditional heating methods ineffective or even damaging.
Project Overview

At Baildon, we approached the project with sensitivity to both the building and its congregation. By using infrared heaters, we were able to provide zoned warmth — focusing heat where people gather, rather than trying to raise the air temperature throughout the cavernous space. This meant parishioners felt comfortable during services and events, even in the depths of winter.
Challenge: Baildon Methodist Church faced:
- Outdated gas heating system causing high energy bills
- Cold spots and uneven temperatures across the space
Solution
Our team designed a system using 350W Classic Infrared Panels and 600W Classic Panels mounted discreetly on the ceilings. This provided efficient, even heat while preserving the church’s architectural beauty. IHS provided a state-of-the-art heating system for Baildon Methodist Church, ensuring a warm, eco-friendly environment for its congregation. This project highlights how infrared heating can enhance comfort in historic spaces while reducing costs and supporting sustainability goals.

Lower Energy Costs: Significant savings over the old gas system.
Consistent Comfort: Even heat distribution throughout the space.
Preserved Aesthetics: Ceiling installation maintains the church’s beautiful interiors.
Eco-Friendly: Reduced carbon footprint supporting sustainability.

Client Testimonial
“We, at Baildon Methodist Church, have removed the old gas-powered boiler and associated radiators. The whole building is now heated by ceiling-mounted Infrared panel heaters. IHS were a delight to deal with — parts nearly always in stock, quick delivery, and competitive pricing.”
