Nothing on the walls. Heat only the rooms you use. Slim white PowerBoard panels on the ceiling warm people and everything in the room directly, instead of heating the air first. Supplied and installed across the UK.
Gloucester's GL-postcode area mixes Tudor-fronted properties around the Cathedral and Westgate Street with Victorian terraces in Tredworth and Barton, plus the new-build estates of Quedgeley and Kingsway. Gloucester City Council has prioritised regeneration of the dock and Greyfriars areas, and the city sits in a notorious flood-risk corridor along the Severn. Gloucestershire winters here average around 4°C with persistent damp from the river valley, and the heating season runs October to April. PoweRad's Gloucester installers cover GL1 to GL4, fitting ceiling-mounted infrared panels into family homes, HMO student lets and listed properties around the Cathedral precinct. Because the panels are mounted high and have no electrical components below skirting level, they're particularly suitable for properties with a flood-risk history.
PoweRad fits ceiling-mounted infrared panels across Gloucester and nearby areas including Bristol, Cheltenham and Worcester. With local homes typically rated EPC D, moving from storage heaters or an ageing gas system to room-by-room infrared is a straightforward way to lift comfort and efficiency.
No boiler, no radiators, no pipework. Slim electric panels sit flat on the ceiling and warm the room the same way the sun warms you.
Around 3cm thin and out of sight overhead. They free up every wall, and there is nothing for children or pets to touch.
Infrared warms the walls, floor and furniture directly, the way sunshine does. The warmth is even from floor to ceiling and does not vanish the moment a door opens.
Panels reach full output in under 10 minutes and every room is controlled separately, so you only ever heat the rooms you are using.
The numbers that shape heating bills in Gloucester, Gloucestershire.
Gloucester households pay around £130 a month in energy bills on average. Because infrared heats rooms individually rather than the whole house at once, replacing an ageing gas system can save up to 40% on heating costs, and swapping out storage heaters or oil saves more. See how we calculate savings
Plenty of Gloucester homes still run ageing warm-air units, gas boilers or LPG systems that cost more every year to fuel, service and repair. Infrared ceiling panels are the modern electric replacement: no pipework, no flue, no annual service. Panels are fitted room by room, usually in 1-2 days, and every room gets its own thermostat so you stop heating empty space.
Panels are independent of the existing pipework, so you can switch over room by room and cap the old system when it suits you.
No annual gas safety check, no boiler service contract, no parts to fail. A 10-year product warranty instead.
A free remote heat-loss survey gives you a like-for-like running cost comparison against your current system before you decide anything.

Understanding Gloucester's unique climate, property landscape, and energy profile
Gloucester sits in the Severn flood plain, and large parts of the city centre and Westgate are within active Environment Agency flood-risk zones. January averages around 4°C are routinely a degree colder in the low-lying streets near the docks than on higher ground in Robinswood. Persistent valley fog through autumn and winter is a defining feature.
The GL-postcodes mix Tudor-fronted properties around the Cathedral and Westgate Street, Victorian terraces in Tredworth and Barton, the listed Docks regeneration area, and the new-build estates of Quedgeley and Kingsway. Gloucester City Council has prioritised regeneration of the dock and Greyfriars areas.
Most Gloucester homes are on mains gas, but the city's flood-risk zone has accelerated interest in heating systems with no skirting-level electrical components - which is a natural fit for ceiling-mounted infrared.
The defining Gloucester heating problem is the flood-risk corridor along the Severn - properties that have flooded once will probably flood again, and any heating system with skirting-level boilers, valves or pipework is at risk. Ceiling-mounted infrared sits well above any plausible flood line.
