Radiant heat, What is radiant heat, and where to get radiant heat!

Radiant heat is energy efficent What is radiant heat?

Radiant heat warms the closest and coldest mass, which radiates heat throughout that space evenly. In other words, radiant heat warms cold objects. Radiant heat will heat the floors, tables, and people.

Benefits of radiant heat:

The infra-red energy is absorbed by the building's heat sinks, i.e. concrete floors, machinery, fixtures, etc. This heat sink is what in turn re-radiates energy for the "warmth" that is felt in the surrounding air. Because stratification of air (difference between floor temperature and ceiling temperature) is significantly lower than conventional hot, forced air systems, the structure heat loss is greatly reduced resulting in large savings in heating dollars.

A method of heating, usually consisting of a forced hot water system with pipes placed in the floor, wall, or ceiling; or with electrically heated panels.

Use of radiation to generate heat such as with baseboard heating where the circulating hot water is radiated through conduction by thin metal fins at the bottom of the wall. The room is warmed by air circulating around the heating unit using convention.

Method of heating whereby much of the heat transfer is accomplished by radiation through space from warm building surfaces such as floors, walls or ceilings.
