Technology evolves rapidly, with new innovations emerging daily. While some fade away, others prove their worth and become essential. Far infrared heating is one such breakthrough, offering energy-efficient, cost-effective, and comfortable heating for Australian homes.
One of the biggest misunderstandings about infrared heating comes from a confusion between the two distinct types of infrared heating – far infrared and near infrared. Far infrared is known for its deep gentle warmth and is ideal for indoor environments. In contrast, near infrared offers immediate, intense heat, and is used for targeted heat applications and outdoor spaces.
Despite its growing popularity, some remain sceptical. With so much misinformation about heating technologies, it’s natural to question whether far infrared heating lives up to the hype. So, let’s break it down and answer the big question: How efficient are far infrared heaters really?
Energy Efficiency and Cost Savings
When it comes to heating, efficiency is everything. The less energy, and therefore cost, to keep a warm room, the lower your electricity bills. This is where far infrared panels truly shine:
-
Immediate warmth – No need to wait for the air to heat up; you’ll feel the warmth instantly.
-
Targeted heating – You only heat the spaces you need, rather than wasting energy, and money, warming spaces where no one is sitting, or the air near the ceiling, for example. You only pay for exactly what you need and use.
-
Smart heating – With a smart thermostat you can operate your heating system remotely.
-
Lower energy use – Far infrared heating can reduce electricity costs by up to 65% when used efficiently.
It is pretty clear that far infrared heating is genuinely one of the most energy-efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable ways to heat your home.
But it’s more than just savings. Beyond energy efficiency, far infrared heaters offer several advantages over traditional heating options. They are low maintenance and easy to install; you can typically mount the panel and plug it in yourself without needing professional help. The heating panels do not come with lots of parts that could potentially break; meaning they are generally very easy to service and maintain. They also create a healthier home environment with less dust and allergens circulating in the air.
