Stone infrared radiators offer a technical alternative to convection-based heating by prioritising radiant heat exchange over air movement. Engineered from high-density stone composites, these units function as substantial thermal emitters that deliver long-wave infrared warmth absorbed directly by the room’s fabric and occupants. By heating surfaces rather than circulating air, this process creates a cleaner, anti-allergenic environment where dust and allergen movement is significantly reduced. Furthermore, maintaining a constant surface temperature on walls provides a proactive solution for moisture control, effectively mitigating the conditions that lead to damp in UK period properties.
The primary advantage of these architectural stone units is their high thermal inertia. Unlike thin-film electric panels that lose temperature the moment power is cut, the stone core retains energy and continues to radiate heat, ensuring a more stable and predictable thermal profile. This characteristic allows for more efficient energy management through precision timing, avoiding the rapid temperature fluctuations common in standard electric heaters. Available in over 200 RAL Classic colours at no additional cost, these slim, wall-mounted units offer a sophisticated, sustainable solution where heating is integrated as a permanent, functional element of stone architecture
