Herschel Infrared is the chosen heating solution for the COP26 House

In the late autumn of 2019 we had already decommissioned our old oil boiler so we could finish knocking down a couple of single storey rooms at the back of our property. We decided to go down the ecologically friendly route and heat the house using electricity.

We tried a couple of Herschel’s 400W flat panels, mounting them on the ceilings in our small bathroom and a small bedroom used as an office. These were easy to fit and worked really well.

We were so impressed that a couple of weeks later we bought 6 1100W panels for the lounge, kitchen and master bedroom.

We’ve now been through two winters and we love these panels. They’re completely silent in use, a real contrast from the shushing, creaking and the occasional clunk we had with the oil boiler and radiators. We live in a quiet village and the silent operation made more of a difference to us than we expected. The dust levels are lower than we had with convection type heating (radiators or electric convection heaters). The rooms feel warm without the air getting too hot. We find it’s a more comfortable warmth than air heating.

The Herschel team was great. Very helpful. The calculator page on the website is really useful. I’ll be back there soon to figure out the number and size of the panels we’re going to need for our freshly rebuilt rooms.

Thank you all at Herschel. A great product, really well executed.

Just a hint for anyone thinking of ceiling mounting the larger flat panels to old (non entirely flat) ceilings. You may need to pack out the mounting bracket from the ceiling (approx 20mm in our case) to give yourself the space you need for the control until on the back of the panel.

I love the infrared heating panels that are fitted on my ceiling. They provide an energy efficient, economical, noise-less, easy, smart-operated, clean, zero-carbon emitting, moisture repellent, form of heating for this small space. I am so grateful to Herschel Infrared Heating (contact picked up at NSBRC) for all their excellent help and advice.

Excellent customer service and very fast delivery time. We would definitely order from Herschel again. We bought a 500W XLS towel rail panel to replace a ‘traditional’ chrome towel rail, and used the existing wiring. We bought the battery powered controller, which works well and allows us to have a warm bathroom when we get up in the morning. Must mention that the heat generated is incredible (and very different) when compared to our old chrome towel rail in the same location (and half the wattage is being used too!)

I just wanted to write to you to say how delighted we are with our recent purchase of the  Herschel infrared panels. I can’t tell you how impressed we are with them and how warm our home now is. The panels blend beautifully into the background and the warmth from them is perfect even though they are set considerably lower than previous heating systems. The service form yourself has been exemplary, we could not have asked for better service. We have no hesitation in recommending the panels and also your company , our experience with you has been fantastic from start to finish. With Kind Regards ( warm and toasty) Sheena and Lyndon.
