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.
Lancaster's LA-postcode area runs from the Georgian and Victorian terraces around Castle Hill and Dalton Square through the university village at Bailrigg out to the coastal villages of Heysham and Morecambe. Lancaster City Council has set a 2030 net-zero target and has been particularly active on community energy schemes. North-west winters here average around 4°C and bring close to 1,200mm of rain a year, so the heating season runs October to early May. PoweRad's Lancaster installers cover LA1 to LA5, fitting ceiling-mounted infrared panels into Lune-side terraces, listed properties around the Castle conservation area and university student lets in Galgate and Scotforth. There's no flue penetration through stone external walls, no annual gas safety check and no pipework to lag against winter frost.
PoweRad fits ceiling-mounted infrared panels across Lancaster and nearby areas including Preston, Blackpool and Manchester. 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.

See how we calculate savings
Plenty of Lancaster 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 Lancaster's unique climate, property landscape, and energy profile
Lancaster sits at the edge of the Lake District and the Bowland fells, with January averages around 4°C and over 1,200mm of annual rainfall - the wettest profile of any city in this list. The Lune valley brings persistent morning fog through autumn and winter.
The LA-postcodes mix Georgian and Victorian terraces around Castle Hill and Dalton Square, the university village at Bailrigg, and the coastal villages of Heysham and Morecambe. The Castle conservation area is particularly tightly controlled by Lancaster City Council.
Lancaster City Council has set a 2030 net-zero target and has been particularly active on community-energy schemes, including Lancaster Cohousing's award-winning low-carbon development. Most LA-postcode homes are on mains gas, with electric heating concentrated in the listed core and the student-let market around Galgate and Scotforth.
The defining Lancaster heating problems are persistent damp in solid-wall stone terraces, listed-building constraints around Castle Hill, and HMO billing in the very large student-let market around the university. Radiant ceiling heat addresses the damp by warming wall surfaces directly.
