A Two-Storey Home Expansion with Kiasa EKO Infrared Panels
When Adrian began a two-storey expansion project on his home in Audley, Bristol, he knew one thing for certain: he wanted to move away from oil heating and bulky radiators. Working with long-time installer Ian Payne, founder of Plan and Expand, Adrian explored a new approach—infrared heating.
Having already tested a couple of Kiasa panels in his home, Adrian was impressed enough to commit to installing Kiasa’s EKO Infrared Panels throughout his new extension, including the kitchen, bathroom, and bedroom.
A New Concept for the Installers
Ian Payne has been in the trade for over 30 years, mostly working with traditional gas central heating and radiators. Infrared heating was a new concept for his team. At first, it seemed unfamiliar—but once installed, the benefits were clear.
It was a learning experience. Every day is a school day.
Why Infrared Heating?
Adrian particularly loved how the panels freed up his walls, creating a clean, open design
No bulky radiators
more freedom and space in each room
Efficient all-electric heating
perfect for removing reliance on oil
Modern comfort
warmth that feels natural, like standing in the sun
Kiasa’s communication and service was great—excellent support and phone calls. Everything went well. I would use Kiasa Infrared Heating again
