Radiant panels
Radiant panels, also known as infrared radiant panels, are technological devices that produce heat using infrared radiation. These panels use the principle of electromagnetic radiation to heat objects and the space around them.
Infrared radiation is a form of electromagnetic radiation that is invisible to the human eye in the visible light spectrum. This radiation is able to transfer heat directly to the surface of objects and the human body without the need to heat the air between them.
Radiant panels are usually made of high emissivity materials that efficiently produce infrared radiation. The heat generated by these panels is then absorbed by objects and surfaces in the room, increasing the temperature in the surroundings. This process is similar to the feeling of warmth from sunlight on a sunny day.
The advantages of radiant panels include fast and even distribution of heat, energy saving, absence of dust and allergen circulation in the air, silent operation and easy installation. Radiant panels are often used e.g. for ceiling or floor heating of rooms, terraces, spaces in commercial buildings and other applications.
It is important to note that radiant panels work on the principle of local heating, which means that they only heat objects and people in their direct range. Therefore, they are often used as an additional source of heat or in rooms with a need for targeted heating. When planning the use of radiant panels, it is necessary to take into account their performance, dimensions, location and other factors in order to achieve efficient heating with optimal comfort.
