Case Study:
Radiant Heating Helps Shoppers Feel Warmer
at C&W Mee Chemists
|
|
C&W Mee Chemists are in the
picturesque Devon village of Chagford on the edge of Dartmoor.
Their pharmacy serves the local community as well as many visiting
holidaymakers
The Problem
The Chemist shop is
open-plan but has two distinct ‘sections’. The general heating to
the establishment keeps the whole shop warm but in the winter there
is an acute problem to the front of the shop due to the heat loss
through the main entrance as customers come and go.

Electric Infra-red Heating
Infra-red heating is based on the transfer of thermal energy by electromagnetic radiation. Infra-red emitters are classified according to the temperature dependent peak wavelength which they emit and can be short-wave, medium-wave and long-wave.
Short-wave infra-red heaters have the ability to heat people directly without having to heat up the air first. They are compact, energy efficient and easily installed.
The element used has a thermal response similar to an electric light bulb so is instant. Infra-red heaters can be easily used with PIR movement detectors or with power controllers
