Infrared Heating Calculation Frequently Asked Questions
The amount of infrared heating required depends on the room size, ceiling height, insulation level, and installation type. Most UK homes typically require between 25–40 W/m³. Our iHelios infrared heating calculator helps estimate the correct heating output automatically.
Infrared heating is commonly calculated using room volume multiplied by a heating factor based on insulation quality. Better insulated homes require less wattage, while older or poorly insulated buildings may require higher heating output.
Typical infrared heating requirements are:
- 20 W/m³ for passive or highly insulated homes
- 25 W/m³ for modern new builds
- 30–32.5 W/m³ for average insulation
- 35–40 W/m³ for older or less insulated properties
