Infrared heaters work by emitting radiant heat that directly warms people and objects, rather than wasting energy heating the surrounding air. This makes them significantly more efficient than convection-based systems, particularly in buildings with high ceilings where warm air naturally rises and is lost.
Why Choose Infrared Heating for Commercial Buildings?
Featured Product
How does it work in commercial spaces?
Rather than heating up a whole volume of air like conventional systems, infrared warms people and objects directly, so Herschel heaters let you focus on specific areas that actually need warmth.
In large industrial spaces, you can position your heaters to gently warm anything from a single workstation through to all occupied areas. It’s a far more efficient way to heat, delivers much quicker warm-up times, creates a more comfortable working environment, and can be powered by renewable energy to help businesses meet their sustainability targets.
Benefits of Infrared Heating for Commercial Buildings
Superior Energy Efficiency
Their directional heating allows for zoned comfort, delivering warmth precisely where it’s needed, such as occupied workstations, without using energy on unoccupied areas. This makes them ideal for large, open, or drafty spaces.

Reduced Maintenance
Infrared heaters are solid-state units with no moving parts, meaning there’s very little wear and tear over time. Unlike HVAC systems or heat pumps, they don’t require annual servicing, helping to keep maintenance costs down and minimise system downtime.

Increased Reliability with No Single Point of Failure
Each infrared unit operates independently or can be configured in groups, reducing the risk of a complete system failure. If one unit happens to malfunction, it can be isolated while the remainder of the system continues operating as normal. This distributed design enhances reliability and simplifies troubleshooting.
Simple Installation
The installation of our infrared heaters is straightforward and cost-effective; they only require electrical connections (no ductwork or plumbing), making rapid deployment possible by licensed electricians. Thanks to their modular design, systems can also be scaled progressively to suit operational requirements and budget constraints, particularly where a complete fit-out isn’t being installed at once. Hear from Daley’s Electrical, UK Electricians, on how installing Herschel heaters compares to other systems (note film shows a UK thermostat).
Rapid Warm-Up and Enhanced Comfort
Radiant heat provides warmth quickly, significantly reducing heat-up times in large commercial spaces, resulting in a more comfortable and responsive heating solution for employees and visitors alike.
Power 3.2 – 6.4kW Workshop Heater
Optimal for Large, High-Ceilinged Spaces
Infrared heaters are well suited for commercial and industrial environments such as warehouses, manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, gyms, retail spaces, and sports complexes. They can be ceiling- or wall-mounted, freeing up valuable floor space while efficiently delivering heat from above.
Supports Sustainability and Decarbonisation Goals
Electric infrared heaters support carbon reduction strategies, especially when powered by renewable electricity or paired with on-site solar PV and battery storage. Time-of-use utility rates and off-peak charging can further improve energy efficiency and cost savings, helping organisations meet sustainability commitments and Net Zero goals.
Promotes Healthier Indoor Environments
Because infrared heating doesn’t rely on air circulation, it minimises the spread of dust, allergens, and airborne pollutants. It also helps maintain natural humidity levels and produces no on-site emissions, providing a cleaner, healthier heating solution. Hear from Dave about how switching to infrared heaters in his home provided his family with invaluable benefits to his son’s health condition, where other heating systems fell short.
Silent Operation
Infrared heaters operate completely silently, making them ideal for noise-sensitive environments such as offices, studios, and healthcare facilities. They produce no fan noise or mechanical hum, allowing employees, clients, and patients to work, study, or relax without distraction. Their quiet operation also makes them perfect for spaces where concentration, focus, or calm is essential, from open-plan offices and hot yoga studios to recording studios and medical treatment areas.
Case Studies
Customer Testimonials
“We think the infrared heating is fantastic”
We think the infrared heating is fantastic, it warms the space quickly and efficiently, and we love the discreet design. Having a ceiling-mounted heater has also enabled us to free up valuable floor space.
“Keep our paint shop drying area warm”
“I just wanted to thank you for your advice on the type and number of fittings to keep our paint shop drying area warm and dry (from air moisture), they work perfectly, thank you.
The units are really compact and suit our requirements to a tee, we now have a happy spray team”.
