Our panels are IP54 rated - what does that mean?

Our standard white infrared heating panels are IP54 rated for use in bathrooms, we suggest the panel is fitted to the ceiling away from the bath or shower but above where you stand to dry, ideally the heater should have its own timer or programmer so that the heating can be on at a lower temperature throughout the day, this will ensure a general all round warmth and comfort.

IP54 (IP rating is for protection of persons and protection against equipment -the 5 means that it is protected against entry of dust in sufficient quantity to interfere with satisfactory operation of the equipment - the 4 means that it is protected against splashing and spraying of water from all practicable directions.)

We can also supply a programmer to control just one or a number of heating panels in a zone, these programmers allow you the flexibility and control of your daily heating needs to help avoid wasting energy. Please discuss your requirements with your electrician, as there are a range of other controllers available from a very simple timer switch to a complex home electrics programmer.

As every home and situation is different we are happy to liaise with you and discuss your heating needs, we do not fit the heaters, this must be done by a suitably qualified electrician. We have tried to provide you with as much information as possible on the website and we are always happy to talk to our customers by phone, we would much rather you discuss your needs with us and choose the correct size heater than be disappointed next winter!
