Radiant Heating Systems for Industrial and Commercial Use

Radiant heating delivers comfort and efficiency in even the most challenging spaces. Instead of heating the air first, these systems transfer warmth directly to people, objects, and surfaces. This targeted method reduces energy loss and keeps working environments comfortable, even in buildings with high ceilings, draughts, or open loading bays.

At Mark Climate Technology, we provide three main radiant heating solutions:

• Gas-fired radiant heaters
• Electric radiant heaters
• Radiant panels for heating and cooling

Each system is designed for specific applications, energy efficiency goals, and building types.

Why Choose Radiant Heating?

Radiant heating offers clear advantages over traditional warm air systems:

• High efficiency – Heat goes where it’s needed, reducing waste.
• Fast warm-up – No long pre-heating times.
• Better air quality – No dust circulation from fans.
• Silent comfort – Ideal for offices, meeting rooms, and sports facilities.
• Zoning control – Heat only occupied areas.

This makes radiant heating perfect for warehouses, workshops, garages, sports halls, offices, and more.

Types of Radiant Heating Systems

Gas-Fired Radiant Heating

Gas-fired radiant heaters are ideal for large industrial spaces, such as factories, garages, and logistics hubs. They use a burner to heat a metal tube, with a reflector directing infrared heat downwards.

Key features:

• Suitable for mounting heights of 4–20 metres.
• Linear and U-shaped designs for flexible layouts.
• Modulating burners for maximum efficiency.
• Long service life with low maintenance.

Applications:

• Garages and automotive workshops.
• Large warehouses and distribution centres.
• Retail spaces and sports halls.
• Off-grid locations with propane options.

Gas-fired infrared heaters are especially effective in draughty areas, as they heat people and objects directly rather than warming escaping air.

Electric Radiant Heating

Electric radiant heaters provide targeted warmth without combustion or ducting. They are quick to install and easy to maintain, making them a great choice for new builds and retrofit projects.

Key features:

• Ceiling or wall-mounted options.
• Silent, dust-free operation.
• Low maintenance – no pumps, fans, or burners.
• Works with renewable electricity for low-carbon heating.

Applications:

• Offices, meeting rooms, and reception areas.
• Shops, showrooms, and healthcare facilities.
• Garages, workshops, and industrial units.

Electric infrared heaters work especially well in spaces with high ceilings or intermittent occupancy, as they heat directly and efficiently.

Radiant Panels for Heating and Cooling

Radiant panels are slim, flat units that can heat and cool spaces quietly and evenly. They can be ceiling-mounted, wall-mounted, or integrated into suspended ceilings.

Key features:

• Water-based (LPHW/LTHW) or electric options.
• Space-saving – no floor or wall footprint.
• Minimal maintenance and long lifespan.
• Custom sizes and RAL colours available.

Applications:

• Offices, schools, and meeting rooms.
• Sports halls, gyms, and healthcare spaces.
• Industrial halls, warehouses, and retail spaces.

Some radiant panels can also provide cooling in summer, making them an all-year solution when connected to chilled water systems.

Installation and Integration

We design our systems to be quick to install and simple to integrate with your existing HVAC setup.

• Gas-fired systems: Pre-assembled components for easy fitting.
• Electric systems: Just connect to a power supply and mount.
• Radiant panels: Fit into suspended ceilings or mount to walls.

Our products can connect to:

• Heat pumps
• Building management systems
• Air handling units

Real-World Example

In a 10,000 m² warehouse, replacing outdated warm air heaters with high-efficiency gas-fired radiant units reduced energy use by 28%. Staff comfort improved, especially in loading bays, and heating response times were much faster.

Safety and Compliance

All Mark radiant heating products meet strict safety and quality standards:

• CE certified.
• Flame monitoring and safety shut-off on gas units.
• Overheat protection.
• Corrosion-resistant materials.

Sustainable Heating Solutions

Radiant heating pairs well with modern energy strategies:

• Works efficiently with destratification fans to reduce heat loss.
• Integrates with renewable energy sources like heat pumps and solar PV.
• Reduces CO₂ emissions compared to conventional warm air heating.
