As an architect, you’re hired to design. You want your creativity to flow but you have constraints. HVAC systems are costly, complicated and can impact your design.
An Electric Radiant Heating System can save you money … freeing up dollars for other design elements … and will blend in beautifully with your design.
Whether you are designing an office building, warehouse, school, stadium or home, delivering heat, warmth and comfort is a design element you must consider.
No matter how beautiful the design of your building is, if the people using it are cold they won’t see your building past their discomfort.
Why take that chance?

Our Electric Radiant Ceiling Heating Systems can be used if you need a more comprehensive renovation and are just tired of the lack of comfort and high energy bills.

While you need to consider material and labor costs to install the heating system, you also need to consider the effectiveness of the system in terms of environmental impact, operating and maintenance costs.
“My client called me after the final walk through to see if I simply forgot to include a heating system. He was ecstatic when I showed him how I designed for his comfort with Electric Radiant Heating Systems by ThermaRay.”

How Radiant Heating Works
The world is warmed by a direct transference of heat from the Sun to the Earth. Just like light, heat travels in straight lines.
Imagine standing outside on a cool, crisp spring morning. The air is cool and so are you. When the Sun pokes out from behind a cloud, instantly you feel that warmth of the radiant heat of the Sun.
The air temperature hasn’t changed, but your sense of comfort has instantly increased.
With radiant heating, heat travels naturally from warmer objects to cooler objects. The cooler objects act like a magnet to the warmth and the warmth is radiated directly to the cooler objects such as walls, floors, furniture and people.
Unlike conventional heating, radiant heating automatically warms people and objects first, not the air. Just like the Sun, radiant heating provides a direct transference of heat from object to object, naturally and efficiently.
Benefits
- Appearance: radiant heating systems require no visible delivery system (vents), enabling you to design a more aesthetically appealing building
- Efficiency: radiant heating systems allow the air temperature to be lower, enabling you to design a building that delivers more comfort at a lower cost
- Effectiveness: radiant heating systems do not require ducts, enabling you to design a building with no energy loss
- Costs: radiant heating systems are more affordable, easier to install, less expensive to operate and often require no maintenance, enabling you to design a more cost-effective building for your clients.
