How Infrared Heating Works?
Customer Review
Landlord Frequently Asked Questions
Yes. Infrared is one of the best heating options for garden rooms because it heats surfaces and people directly, not the air. This makes it fast, efficient and perfect for small, well-insulated spaces.
Typically within 5–15 minutes, depending on insulation and room size. Infrared delivers radiant comfort much faster than panel heaters or convectors.
Absolutely. iHelios foil works perfectly with timber-framed studios, SIPs, log cabins, insulated pods and composite buildings. The installation depth is less than 6 mm, so it integrates seamlessly into floors or ceilings.
DIY-friendly installation is possible for confident users, especially in dry rooms. However, we recommend a qualified electrician for final connections and certification to meet local building regulations.
