Expert Heating Solutions for Homes & Businesses
Gunning Heating Products has been a trusted name in the manufacturing of heating solutions for over 40 years. Established in 1983 by Brian Gunning and his son Gary, our family-run business began in Billericay, Essex, and has since grown into one of the UK's leading manufacturers of trench heating systems, steel tubular radiators, and finned tube heat exchangers. Our commitment to quality and innovation stems from decades of experience, having acquired the manufacturing rights to renowned heating products from Myson Engineering in 1990. With the addition of Kevin Gunning in 2006, we have continued to expand our expertise, delivering bespoke heating solutions tailored to both domestic and commercial needs.Our promise is to exceed customer expectations by combining cutting-edge technology with meticulous attention to detail, ensuring every product meets the highest standards of durability and efficiency. We pride ourselves on listening to client requirements and delivering reliable, time-sensitive solutions, supported by a team with unparalleled industry knowledge. As a British engineering company, we prioritise local manufacturing, offering a refreshing alternative to overseas production while maintaining a reputation for excellence across the UK and beyond.

Trench Heating
Gunning's trench heating systems combat cold spots and condensation in glazed areas through discreet, floor-level installation. Natural convection technology ensures silent operation while maintaining aesthetic integrity in residential extensions and commercial spaces. The steel casing with aluminium-finned copper elements provides efficient heat distribution along glass perimeters, ideal for modern architectural designs requiring unobtrusive solutions.
Tubular Radiators
Our compact tubular radiators deliver high heat output in minimal spaces, featuring mechanically bonded steel fins for enhanced thermal transfer. Available in five standard lengths, these units suit conservatories, under-window installations, and commercial settings where wall space conservation is critical. The durable construction ensures long-term performance in both domestic and industrial environments.
Radiant Ceiling Panels
Premier radiant ceiling panels combine modular aluminium sections with copper tubing for efficient overhead heating. Designed for standard ceiling grids, these 50mm-depth units provide even warmth distribution in offices and public spaces. The lightweight, corrosion-resistant construction maintains performance in high-humidity environments without degradation over time.
Finned Tube Elements
Copper tube elements with mechanically bonded aluminium fins offer superior heat transfer for bespoke applications. Suitable for trench systems, airing cupboards, and industrial settings, these components operate effectively in both high and low-temperature water systems. The durable design minimises maintenance requirements while ensuring consistent thermal performance across diverse installations.
Conservatory Heating
Specialised heating solutions for glazed extensions combine trench systems and low-profile radiators to counteract significant heat loss through glass surfaces. Our engineered approach ensures even temperature distribution without compromising interior aesthetics, providing year-round comfort in conservatories through technically advanced, space-saving installations.
Questions
What makes trench heating ideal for glazed extensions?
Trench heating counters cold downdraughts from glass walls through natural convection, providing even heat distribution without visible units.
Can tubular radiators work in small spaces?
Our compact 200mm-high radiators deliver high output in limited spaces, ideal for under-window installations and tight architectural areas.
How do radiant ceiling panels integrate with existing systems?
Modular panels connect to standard hot water systems and fit within suspended ceiling grids for seamless commercial heating integration.
Are heating elements available in custom lengths?
Finned tube elements can be manufactured up to 3 metres and modified on-site through standard plumbing joints.
What warranty applies to Gunning products?
All systems carry a 10-year manufacturer's warranty covering material defects and thermal performance guarantees.
How does natural convection heating compare to fan-assisted systems?
Our systems provide silent operation without air movement, reducing dust circulation and maintenance requirements compared to fan-based alternatives.
