Zero Glow Radiant Heaters Installed in Wagner Hall in Brighton

The Project

Wagner Hall is a large space that is used for various events including theatre, seminars, weddings and conferences. The hall has a high ceiling and often has raised, tiered rows of seats at the rear. The owners of Wagner Hall required a ceiling-mounted, noise-free heating system that would free up wall space and cannot be heard during performances.

Radiant cassettes are an unobtrusive means of heating various
commercial applications

The system was controlled via our PROTIM-7 7-day timer

The Solution

We specified 9 x 3kW longwave radiant cassettes. The cassettes were ideal for this application as they are designed to be installed at high levels and provide comfortable radiant heat with no light/noise output.

Conventional fan/convection heating systems are not always ideal for these types of premises as hot air rises and accumulates at the ceiling. The temperature gradient when using radiant cassettes is negligible meaning the temperature at the ceiling will be very similar to the ‘experienced’ temperature at floor level. This is ideal as the people on the back row of the tiered seating will not overheat.

The system was controlled via a tamperproof thermostat and our robust PROTIM-7 timer giving the staff accurate, 7-day control.

The Outcome

Everyone at Wagner Hall was very pleased with the system as it gave them efficient, controllable heat throughout. We would also like to congratulate Craig and his team at AC Electrical on their quality installation.

We design and supply heating systems for any commercial or industrial heating application. Call us on 01293 547 361 to discuss a project.
