Minimum ceiling height for a radiant ceiling

The minimum height for a radiant ceiling: a figure that has not aged well

What was wrong with the heated ceilings of the past

Plenty of websites quote a minimum of 2.40 metres for fitting a radiant ceiling, citing the drawbacks of earlier versions of the technology.

The first heated ceilings did carry a risk of overheating at head height, which called for a good deal of room above. Those pages are describing products from the 1980s.

Ceilingo: the height constraint has moved

Ceilingo has taken the radiant ceiling apart and rebuilt it around that constraint.

With our system the ceiling drops by only 5 cm, which is what changes the arithmetic in a renovation.

Discreet heating that stays comfortable

The ceiling temperature stays permanently below skin temperature, which removes any sensation of excessive heat at head height.

The way the heat is spread means you feel something close to gentle sunshine, without being able to locate where it comes from.

A well designed radiant ceiling is therefore discreet, effective, and workable at almost any ceiling height.
