The benefit of this heating method, over traditional convection heating is enormous.

• Far Infrared is 100% natural for our bodies, we are designed to accept and emit infrared waves.
• Far infrared DOES NOT heat air – it heats the fabric of the building (Thermal Mass)
• Significantly reduced operating costs.
• Heating for ‘Comfort’ – Similar feeling to being heated by the Sun. No stuffiness feeling when in a convective heated room.
• Reduced moisture, damp and hard to heat areas.
• Cost effective – significant savings in energy costs against Oil, Gas and other Electric based heating products
• Easily installed, with zero on-going maintenance costs
• ‘FAR’ Infrared they do not omit a light source
• Uses less wattage than other heat sources providing a more eco-friendly and efficient heat source.
• CO2 Free – When powered by wind or solar generated electricity. Great for reducing total carbon emissions and meeting corporate CSR policies.

Six Reasons Why Far Infrared is the only way to heat!

1. FAR INFRARED IS 100% NATURAL FOR OUR BODIES – Humans are designed to absorb and emit infrared waves. If you enjoy the warmth of the sun on your face and be in complete control of the ideal temperature, then you will enjoy the feeling of being heated by Far Infrared.
2. DOES NOT HEAT AIR, IT HEATS THE FABRIC OF THE BUILDING – Heating air convectively is not only expensive, in-effective and in-efficient, it is also now ‘old’ technology. Regardless of the innovation in technology of convective heaters of how ‘economical’ they claim; they are unable to get huge gains in real efficiency. As a technology, it has reached its plateau!
   Heating the fabric of the building creates better thermal comfort and is the solution of economical heating.
3. REDUCES DAMP AND MOULD – Far Infrared can create a uniformed temperature within an environment. When warm air meets cold air, as we all know creates moisture. This can cause issues and make areas susceptible to damp, mould or windows fogging over. All of which can be expensive to treat or change.
4. SAVINGS IN REDUCED ENERGY USE – Never before have we had a heating system and controls that converts energy into heating in as efficient manner as we do now.  Coupled with control systems, to maximise efficiency, you can create an almost perfect efficient heating solution, all at your fingertips.  Compared with other oil, gas or electric solutions Infrared heating saves between 30-60% annually on heating specific energy usage.
5. ZERO MAINTENANCE OR SERVICING – Unlike water based or fan assisted systems Herschel Far Infrared heaters have ZERO moving parts. This removes components breaking and any servicing, inspection or repairing.  All products are certified to safety standards.
6. ECO FRIENDLY – Not only through the reduction of energy consumption or the fact that ‘Far’ Infrared heats Thermal Mass which has storage capacity (Unlike air) but, when used from electricity generated by wind or solar it becomes one of the only heating systems that can truly claim to be 100% carbon free.  Doing your bit for the environment!
