About 5 years ago, I bought some carpet tiles to replace the rugs that covered the floor, but just never seemed to find the time to get them put down. As an internet based company tghe looks in the office were never that important.
However, time changes and with the advent of our new website Bideford Heating and our aim to be a "local" company as well as a the internet based company that we have become, it was time to smarten up our act, carpet tiles are now 85% down, a few edges and a corner to complete is all.
We aim to put up a complete range of our panels so that if - no, not if, when we have visitors wanting to look at what we have we look semi-respectable.
So, that is what I have been doing today!
Oh, I have also responded to emails, blogged, tweeted and updated facebook, and have been keeping one eye on the cricket.
Please check out our main website Multiheat if you are not North Devon based, otherwise check out our Bideford Heating website.
Thankyou!

Near, medium and far infrared - what's the difference?
Near, medium and far infrared - what's the difference?
The infrared part of the spectrum lies right next door to the red end of the visible light spectrum and comes just before the "microwaves"!
Infrared can be divided into three categories, near, medium and far!
We know that some infrared heaters glow orange/red and these heaters are generating energy from the "near "infrared part of the spectrum. In terms of measurement this is between 0.75 and 1.4 microns closest to the red visible light. Night vision devices would also use this area of infrared.
Short wavelength infrared is measured between 1.4 and 3.0 microns and is used for long distance telecommunications.
Medium infrared and far infrared do not give off any light at all and can be measured 3.0 microns and above. Heating panels generally fall in the 5.6 to 10.0 micron range.
The more dangerous microwaves are measured at over 1,000 microns and are a long way off the range that infrared heaters use.
As always Wikipedia is a great source for this type of information and if interested you can read more HERE and HERE!

What is infrared?
What is infrared?
Very simply, infrared is part of the light spectrum!
In the 1800's Sir Frederick William Herschel discovered that an area of the light spectrum produced heat. He directed light through a glass prism to create a spectrum and measured the temperature of each colour. He found that the temperature increased from the violet to the red end of the spectrum.
He continued to measure the temperature beyond the red end of the spectrum in a region where no light was visible and found that this area had the greatest temperature of all. This area has become known as the infrared part of the spectrum.
The warmth given off by the sun and why we feel warm when standing in the sun is because of this infrared energy.

I'm supposed to blog twice a week!
I have been on a social media course today where the call to action at the end was that I had to blog twice a week.
Actually I am supposed to be doing the following:-
Actually I am supposed to be doing the following:-
- Post 5 times a day on Pinterest
- Tweet 3 times a day (excluding interactions like RT's and replies)
- Post on Google+ 3 times a day (although in the trainers opinion G+ is near dead)
- Update business page on Facebook twice a day
- Upload something to Instagram twice a day
- Update status on LinkedIn twice a day (but just during the working week)
- Write a blog twice a week (I think she meant write two blogs a week on each blog/website that you have).

Business has been steady in the last few years but it is time to step up a gear.
We have been specialists in selling infrared heating systems, for home, for office, for sport, for health, for fitness, just about anywhere you need heat infrared has a solution.
Yes, infrared uses electricity to operate but it uses it efficiently and uses less of it than traditional electric heating systems, and depending on how it is used it gives traditional energy sources a run for their money to.
We aim to stay in that market, selling affordable, energy efficient electric heating systems.
So, if electricity is your only source of power, or you are looking for an alternative heating system rather than using oil or bottled gas, or whether you are looking for a product that will provide a bit of top up heating when it really isn't worth turning your central heating system on, then please bear us in mind!
