Calorique Radiant Ceiling Heaters
We are an authorized distributor for
Calorique, Ltd.
Experts and
homeowners agree that the evenly distributed warmth that radiant heating
delivers to the entire room and the people within it is the most
comfortable form of heating. Radiant heating doesn't intrude in your
living space, it delivers comfort - silently and efficiently.

|
Conventional Heating System |
Radiant heat gently warms all parts of the room leaving
no hot spots or drafts. Because radiant heat does not depend on moving
large volumes of air, dust and contaminants in the air and room are
reduced. Our radiant heating system gives you the flexibility to place
furniture anywhere in the room. No need to restrict your room layout
because of vents or baseboards.

Calorique Radiant Ceiling Heating |
Calorique's radiant ceiling heating system is extremely
energy efficient. Homeowners have found that radiant heating systems are
as much as 20% more efficient to operate than electric baseboard units
because all of the heating energy is directed to the living space, not
heating air along the walls.
 |
|
|
Installed Warming Elements |
Attached to the underside of the ceiling joists,
immediately behind the finish panels, this system provides uniform warmth
from the evenly heated ceiling surface. Just like the warmth from the sun,
radiant ceiling heat warms all of the objects in the room.
Frequently Asked Questions

does the system use? |
|
|
| |
12" on center: |
13 watts per panel (roughly 12.5" long) |
| |
16" on center: |
20 watts per panel |
| |
24" on center: |
30 watts per panel |
|
|
| How much does it
cost to operate? |
|
|
| |

|
|
| |
Sheetrock (aka gypsum board) up to 5/8"
Sheetrock with plaster up to a total of 5/8"
Solid wood up to 3/8"

| Do I have to leave
access above the elements? |
|
|
| |
No. |
|
|
| Do I have to wire
both ends of the elements? |
|
|
| |
No. |
|
|
| Why would I want
to wire from both ends? |
|
|
| |
This protects the operation of the elements. If,
for example, a bus bar were severed during renovation work*, the
entire element would continue to operate.**
* Always turn off power to the elements when doing renovation work
to the ceiling or the floor above it.
** If a bus bar is severed, make sure that the severed ends are
properly insulated before restoring power to the system. |
