Calorique Radiant Ceiling Heaters
We are an authorized distributor for
Calorique, Ltd.
A heating system with no moving parts, takes up no space, and doesn't produce drafts. Is it a miracle? No, it's Calorique's radiant ceiling heating system. 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.

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. |
