"Imagine heating your home from the ceiling, not from underfloor heating or
radiators. Once installed like wallpaper, hi-tech infrared fabric emits heat in
a similar way to the sun’s rays. This could be a logical way to add low-carbon
heat into existing homes that need retrofitting to improve energy efficiency.
Under the currently proposed legislative changes, no new home will be built
with an incoming gas supply after 2025. If you’re buying a new home that’s been
designed and built to the new Future Homes Standard, you’ve got little to worry
about.
But for older properties, retrofitting projects can be complex, inconvenient
and expensive. As gas boilers are phased out, heat pumps are usually the
preferred alternative for energy-efficient housing. However, infrared fabric
technology could be much better suited as a low-carbon heating solution for our
existing housing stock, and here’s why."
