It’s a slimline, wall-mounted heating solution that delivers comfortable, healthy warmth without compromising on style.
Infrared Heating Benefits for Modern Homes
Infrared heating works differently from traditional convection systems. Instead of heating the air, infrared panels warm people, surfaces, and objects directly—much like the sun—creating a more even and comfortable temperature throughout the room.
This makes the Herschel Inspire an excellent choice for energy efficient home heating in the UK, especially in well-insulated properties.
Are Infrared Panels Healthy?
Yes. Infrared heating:
-
Produces no air movement, helping reduce dust circulation
-
Does not dry out the air
-
Is ideal for allergy and asthma sufferers
-
Creates a more natural, comfortable indoor environment
Custom Picture Infrared Panel – Heating That Becomes Art
The Herschel Inspire is a custom picture infrared panel, allowing you to personalise the heater with your own photograph, artwork, or branding. Once installed, it appears as a framed picture rather than a heater.
