Services
Radiant Panels
Solray's radiant panels provide efficient heating and cooling by emitting infrared energy directly to objects and people. These space-saving systems maximise floor area while offering customisable sizes and outputs. Ideal for modern buildings requiring aesthetic integration and energy efficiency.
Trench Heating
Natural convection trench heaters distribute balanced heat around room perimeters, ideal for areas with large glazing. Manufactured in Swansea with durable materials, these systems provide silent operation and customisable specifications for commercial applications.
Gilled Tubes
Steel tubes with aluminium fins deliver efficient heat transfer for low walls and glazed areas. Available in multiple sizes and RAL colours, these systems combine durability with aesthetic flexibility for both new builds and refurbishment projects.
Air Curtains
Electric or LTHW-powered air curtains create thermal barriers at entrances, reducing heat loss. Available in standard and heavy-duty models with powder-coated finishes, they ensure energy efficiency for commercial and industrial settings.
LST Covers
Low surface temperature covers for radiators enhance safety in public buildings. Manufactured from 2mm steel with optional cut-outs and custom colours, they provide robust protection while maintaining aesthetic appeal in schools and healthcare facilities.

Questions
What makes Solray's radiant panels different from traditional heating systems?
Our panels use infrared technology to directly heat objects and people, eliminating radiators to maximise floor space while offering customisable outputs and aesthetic integration.
Can Solray systems be used in listed buildings or churches?
Yes, our electric panels require only electrical supply with no pipework, making them ideal for historic buildings where boiler infrastructure isn't available.
How do Solray panels improve hygiene in commercial spaces?
Ceiling-mounted designs have no corners or joints where dirt and bacteria can accumulate, maintaining cleaner environments for healthcare and education facilities.
Do you offer technical support for architects and engineers?
Our UK-based design team provides CAD integration, output calculations, and CPD seminars to support specification and installation of radiant heating systems.
Are Solray products suitable for sports facilities?
Yes, our high-output LPHW systems have been successfully installed in sports halls, providing efficient heating for large-volume spaces with challenging thermal demands.
Can panels be customised to match interior designs?
All systems can be powder-coated in any RAL colour with optional perforated faceplates, ensuring seamless integration into both modern and heritage architectural schemes.
