Herschel Aspect XL2 Far Infrared Heater - 1300w

The Herschel Aspect XL2 Far Infrared Heater combines the effective, comfortable heat of far infrared with a completely discreet housing ideal for commercial and domestic applications. Its unobtrusive design allows it to blend into the background unnoticed and is the perfect match for any large, open-plan space that needs effective heating: be it a gym studio, a corporate meeting room or beneath a restaurant awning.

Comfortable Heat

Herschel’s Aspect range uses aluminised steel reflectors to help project heat out with maximum efficiency. They can take around 5 minutes to warm up because of the gentler radiant heat they provide but they more than make up for the wait with their comfortable and pleasant warmth. One of the main distinguishing features of the Aspect range is that they incorporate a protective grill over their heating elements to keep curious fingers at bay – an essential safety feature for domestic and public installations.

Aspect heaters are the perfect compromise between gentle heating and powerful output, providing all of the satisfying warmth of far infrared but with a greater intensity suitable even for outdoor installation. Completely glare-free heating elements and an IPX4 splashproof rating make these ceramic heaters the natural choice for understated heating in almost any environment. This product can heat a maximum area of 9m² with its 1300W output and can be used alongside other Aspect heaters to provide effective heat over a larger space.

Why choose a ceramic infrared heater?

Infrared is an unbeatable outdoor heating solution as it travels directly from the heat source until it comes into contact with a person or object. Radiant heat works in exactly the same way as the heat we feel from the sun, keeping us warm on a cool day even if the ambient air temperature isn’t very high. It’s a direct A-to-B heat transfer that doesn’t rely on the movement of air molecules to be effective and is the perfect means of warming draughty or open-plan rooms that are difficult to heat.

Shortwave infrared used by glowing quartz heaters is the most effective way of combating cooler outdoor temperatures because of its higher intensity. However, the type of heat shortwave provides isn’t comfortable for long-term use, and what’s more, it only provides a shallow sensation of warmth over the surface of your skin. Ceramic heaters use a gentle form of radiant heat known as longwave or far infrared, which is so safe that it’s even used in hospital incubators. Far infrared uses the same wavelength and frequency as the heat emitted by our own bodies, which is why these heaters provide a more lasting and satisfying sensation of warmth that other heaters can’t replicate.

Although the infrared they use is a little less intense, the strength of ceramic heaters lies in their ability to be used over long periods of time without any form of discomfort. Ceramic heaters are excellent primary heat sources for industrial areas like workshops and warehouses, or even commercial areas such as cafés, bars and showrooms. Wherever you need a robust heating solution for busy areas which are often in use, ceramic heaters are usually the best choice.
