To put it simply, infrared heaters warm people and objects, not air. Infrared rays reach across the room, just like sunlight, and directly heat whatever they touch — your skin, your furniture, even the walls and floor.
That warmth sticks around, creating a thermal mass that holds onto heat much longer than air ever could. And because there’s no air movement, there’s no draught, no cold spots, and no heat escaping every time someone opens a door.
Infrared heating works just like the sun — without the UV damage.
Which infrared heater do I need??
Getting the right wattage is everything. If you choose a IR heating panel that’s too small for your room, it’ll struggle to keep up — and you'll be left in the cold (literally and emotionally).
At KIASA Heating, we help you work it out based on:
-
The size and volume of your space
-
How well your home is insulated
-
The room’s function and layout
There’s a formula to it — but you don’t have to figure it out alone.
