As a heating solution we are confident that infrared heating provides one of the most sustainable options for the built environment. There is increasing need for the population to reduce their reliance on fossil fuels and utilise low carbon, energy efficient technologies.<\/p>\n

Herschel Infrared heating provides a future-proof heating solution that delivers lower emissions alongside improved efficiency and comfort levels for occupiers and can be coupled with renewable energy sources and battery storage. We have been chosen as the heating solution for a number of net-zero carbon emitting new homes, including the \u2018COP26 House<\/a>\u2019 in Glasgow, built by Beyond Zero Homes, as well as a number of other eco builds built by housing developers. We are proud to have heated the COP26 House which achieved a 59% reduction on its whole life embodied carbon assessment versus RIBA\u2019s \u2018business as usual\u2019 standard.<\/p>\n

Herschel Infrared panels are solid state and present a zero maintenance, long life solution, with low embodied carbon. At Herschel, we keep sustainability at the forefront of our proposition and our infrared panel heaters are over 95% fully recyclable at end of life and our packaging is close to 100% recyclable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
