When Installation Isn’t Possible — iHelios Ceiling Panels Replace Electric Heaters
🔥 When Underfloor or Ceiling Installation Isn’t Possible — iHelios Still Delivers
In many renovation and retrofit projects, underfloor or in-ceiling heating systems aren’t always an option. Structural limits, insulation thickness, or existing finishes can make it impractical to install conventional heating systems.
But with iHelios, that challenge doesn’t mean compromise.
Our custom-built infrared heating panels deliver the same intelligent, efficient warmth — even where traditional installation isn’t possible.
At iHelios, we design solutions around real buildings and real people, combining innovation, flexibility, and style.
💡 A Smarter Way to Upgrade Outdated Electric Heating
In this recent project, underfloor and in-ceiling installation were not feasible due to the building’s existing structure and electrical layout. Rather than forcing a compromise, our design team engineered a smarter alternative.
👉 Our iHelios ceiling panels replaced outdated electric heaters, transforming the space into a modern, energy-efficient environment with clean lines and balanced heat distribution.
Unlike bulky electric radiators or convectors, iHelios infrared panels emit gentle, radiant warmth that heats surfaces and occupants directly, not just the air. This results in a consistent, comfortable temperature that feels natural — similar to standing in sunlight on a cool day.
⚙️ Why Choose Infrared Panels When Installation Options Are Limited
Traditional electric systems rely on air movement, which often causes uneven heat, dust circulation, and wasted energy.
By contrast, iHelios infrared technology delivers directional, radiant heat that spreads evenly through the room, no matter where the panels are installed.
When underfloor or in-ceiling systems can’t be used, our custom panel approach offers several key advantages:
Simple, non-invasive installation — no need to lift floors or access ceiling voids
Perfect retrofit solution for homes, offices, and renovation projects
Low energy consumption and faster heat response
No moving parts or maintenance required
Smart control integration for zoning and automation
Sleek, contemporary finish that complements any design
These benefits make iHelios panels the ideal solution for projects where conventional heating simply isn’t possible — especially in older buildings, apartments, or spaces with limited access to floors and ceilings.
🌍 Sustainable Comfort That Adapts to Any Space
Every iHelios system is designed around the unique characteristics of the property. Our engineers calculate heat demand, insulation levels, and occupancy patterns to specify the most efficient configuration.
By replacing outdated electric heaters with intelligent infrared panels, we help property owners reduce running costs and carbon emissions without compromising comfort.
The result?
- Lower energy use.
- Cleaner air.
- A more balanced, comfortable indoor climate.
And thanks to smart control options via the iHelios app, users can set schedules, control zones, and monitor energy usage in real time — ensuring optimal performance and savings every day.
🏡 Designed for Refurbishment and Retrofit Projects
iHelios systems are increasingly specified for refurbishment, housing upgrades, and energy-efficient conversions, where underfloor heating isn’t viable.
Our panels can be installed quickly with minimal disruption, making them ideal for property developers, housing associations, and homeowners alike.
We’ve helped transform:
- Residential renovations
- Commercial office upgrades
- Modular and prefabricated buildings
- Social housing improvements
- Educational and community spaces
Each installation demonstrates the same principle — that intelligent design and clean technology can overcome physical installation limits.
🔋 Replacing Old Electric Heaters with Smart Energy
Old electric heaters and storage units are not only inefficient, they’re costly to run. iHelios replaces those outdated systems with a future-ready infrared solution — delivering clean, silent, and maintenance-free heating.
Our ceiling panels can be configured for any voltage or room size, integrating seamlessly into your electrical layout. They operate silently, require no servicing, and pair perfectly with renewable energy sources such as solar panels or home battery storage.
Combined with iHelios Smart Control, property owners gain intelligent energy management, automatic temperature regulation, and flexible heating zones — reducing both energy waste and carbon footprint.
