ARC specialises in the design and specification of infrared heating systems. Our focus is on engineering the correct heating solution for each building rather than simply selecting heaters based on floor area. This design led approach allows heating systems to be tailored to the specific characteristics of the building, ensuring comfort, reliability and long term performance.
Need a partner who can help design and deliver the right heating solution for your building?
Our Services
ARC specialises in the design and specification of infrared heating systems and complementary thermal technologies. We work with building owners, architects, contractors and trusted installer partners to ensure the right heating approach is selected and implemented correctly.
Our services support projects from early design and specification through to installation coordination and long term technical support.

Infrared Heating Design and Project Support
ARC designs infrared heating systems based on real building conditions, not assumptions, ensuring performance aligns with how the space is actually used.
Every project begins with system design and specification. From there, clients can choose the level of support that best suits their project.
ARC commonly supports projects through the following approaches:
Design and Specification
ARC develops the technical design for the heating system, including heater selection, positioning, controls strategy and electrical considerations. This option is often used by architects, consultants or contractors who already have their own installation teams but require specialist expertise to design the heating system correctly.
Design, Specification and Supply
In many projects ARC designs the system and supplies the equipment required for installation. The installation itself may then be carried out by the client’s electrical contractor or mechanical installer, using the design specification as the basis for the work.
Design, Specification and Installation
Where required, ARC can coordinate the installation of the heating system through trusted installer partners. Working with experienced installers helps ensure that the heating system is installed in accordance with the design and performs as intended. This is typically where ARC provides a turnkey installation solution.
Integrated Thermal Projects
Some projects combine infrared heating with other thermal technologies such as solar PV or complementary heating systems. In these cases ARC can coordinate heating design with other specialist partners to ensure that all technologies work together effectively within the building. This approach is particularly useful in larger projects or developments focused on energy efficiency and sustainability
Infrared Heating Project Journey Stages
Each stage is structured to ensure infrared systems are properly understood, designed, installed and supported for long term performance.
To support projects effectively, ARC’s services are structured around four key stages.
Each stage represents a different part of the project journey, from early planning through to installation and long-term support.
Start Your Infrared Heating Project Journey
This stage focuses on gathering the correct technical and practical information required to design an infrared heating system that works in the real environment. Before designing a heating system we gather detailed information about the building and how it will be used. This stage allows us to understand the space properly and ensure that the heating system is designed around the real conditions of the building.
Infrared Heating System Design and Specification
ARC translates building data into a detailed infrared heating design that installers can follow with confidence. Once the building has been understood, ARC develops a technical heating design. This includes selecting the correct infrared technology, positioning heaters appropriately and defining the control strategy for the system.
Infrared Heating Installation and Installer Network
Installation is guided by specification to ensure infrared systems deliver the coverage and comfort they were designed to achieve. Infrared heating systems must be installed correctly in order to perform as intended. ARC works with trusted installer partners and contractors to help ensure installations follow the design specification and operate safely and effectively.
Infrared Heating Technical Support and Aftercare
Ongoing support ensures infrared systems continue to operate efficiently, even as building use and requirements change. Support does not end once a system is installed. ARC provides ongoing technical guidance, troubleshooting advice and system optimisation support to help ensure heating systems continue to perform effectively over time.

Client Feedback
Our chairman consulted with you to plan a new heating scheme for the hall. You were very helpful and provided all the information that we needed. I am pleased to tell you that the system is now installed and working. Our electricians did a fine job and the result is just as we hoped. The units are neat, unobtrusive, silent and efficient. So far all of the hall users are delighted to be comfortably warm. Thank you for your advice and excellent service.
Our client is really pleased with the infrared heating – the LAVA FRAME units look lovely and discreet, and they certainly work. We were all removing layers yesterday as they kicked out the heat!
We were very pleased with your help and input and will look to specify or include yourselves on any relevant schemes in the future.
