2. Benefits summary of Infra-Red
heating systems
Infra-Red heating feels different and more comfortable.
ā¢ Infra-Red heating panels and systems create warmth and comfort through
inducting warmth into objects within a close range (sub 10m) and combines this
with emitted warmth from the panel.
ā¢ This means that we āfeelā warm rather than having to wait for the air warm up
around us in traditional systems. This is the comfort factor that is measured
through experience surveys, rather than just a temperature measure on traditional
systems.
ā¢ Infra-Red is the wavelength adjacent to normal visual light and is far away from
dangerous wavelengths that we are familiar with (X-ray, UV, Microwaves) so it is
safe technology that our bodies are 100% capable of handling and benefitting
from.
3. ā¢ Infra-Red heat creates comfort and warmth through inducting or radiating warmth into objects within the
dwelling and does not rely on the air being warmed and circulated. This stabilizes the comfort experience in the
building, no hot lofts and cold cellars, as well as reducing the dust circulation.
ā¢ Infra Red uses less energy and has a lower carbon impact.
ā¢ A typical dwelling traditional system (Gas or Electric) has a consumption of c4500 ā 11000 watts (Gas) or 18kw
(electric storage / convector.
ā¢ A typical dwelling Infra-Red system has a consumption rating of c2000 ā 4000 watts. Being a lesser energy
consumption.
ā¢ Traditional systems must work at full energy levels to provide any and all
ā¢ heat in the dwelling ā so off or full on.
ā¢ Infra-Red heating systems deploy warmth only where it is wanted and needed, so only use the panels for the
desired areas in the dwelling. This means that only part of the system works to supply the areas being used ā so
less consumptive.
ā¢ Our intelligent controllers manage the panels to maintain a temperature in a zone, so IT systems ātop upā comfort
locally, resulting in short regular boosts from part of the system, rather than full system operation all the time.
ā¢ BIM and dynamic modeling allow us to embed these dynamics into Whole Life cost and Consumptive predictions
for the building and inform SAP and SBEM assessments demonstrating lower consumption and reduced energy
and carbon impacts ā positively contributing to the passive and Net Zero aspirations for dwellings.

5. Infra-Red Systems are less intrusive than traditional systems.
ā¢ Traditional systems are typically mounted in the lower quartile of the wall, or
floor mounted in the case of storage heaters and can restrict the usability of
the space by the occupier
ā¢ IR comfort is achieved where it is needed ā without full system consumption
ā¢ Behaviors - Users are more in control of their environment and feel
comfortable with the temperature at all times.
ā¢ Infra-Red technology is recognised as exemplary and far less expensive to run
than traditional
In 2018 the NW regional and UK National Constructing Excellence award for
innovation recgnised the use of integrated M&E systems and plug and play
technology ā this included G3D Infra red heating, low voltage and energy storage
systems and intelligent control systems into a combined system within a modular
dwelling for a UK housing provider.

9. Summary & Conclusion
Dynamic energy simulations of a typical UK 1910ās house using both IR panels and electric heaters have shown the following are true:
Wall mounted IR panels provide better air circulation and temperature distribution than similar electric convective heaters.
IR panels and electric heaters provide a similar annual comfort coverage, with 91% and 96% coverage respectively.
Both methods of heating have shown capacity for maintaining thermal comfort within the recommended boundaries of -1 and +1 using the KSU TSV index
IR panels have demonstrated the ability to provide a warmer environment than when using typical electric convection heaters,
with an increase in warmer sensation coverage of 38.3%.
When comparing the energy consumption of each heating method, IR panels were found to use 22.6% less energy than electric convection heaters.
This reduced consumption is accredited to the radiant nature of the IR panel; thermal comfort is achieved without the necessity of increasing air temperature.
Overall, IR panels provide a warmer heating environment than typical electric heaters.

Healthy Buildings for Healthy People
Living PlanIT is committed to improving the quality of life through technology. We are committed to making all buildings healthier, by making
better and more equitable use of space and by reducing the transmission of harmful bacteria, fungi and viruses through the air, water and
surfaces.
We worked closely throughout 2018 with Santa Casa de Freamunde, a nursing clinic in Portugal, to determine the efficacy of real-time
monitoring and interventions in the avoidance of harm. This was the first phase of a longer-term program and comprised early detection
and control of harmful pathogens in the built environment. The outcomes were compelling. The number of patients infected over a 12-
month period was halved and respiratory infections and illnesses associated with multi- resistant bacteria were virtually eliminated. The
prescribing of powerful antibiotics was no longer needed.
Period Patients Infected Typesof infection Typesof antibiotic
Jan2017 ā Jan2018 33 9 Urinary, respiratory&
multi-resistant bacterial
Medium tohigh spectrum
Feb2018 ā Mar 2019 33 4 Urinary Lowspectrum
In addition, the Chief Nurse reported fewer instances of staff illness over the 12-month period, together with reduced concern from
staff about treating infected patients. Our target is to reduce infections even further by reducing human exposure to harmful microbes,
encouraging exposure to beneficial microbes and sustaining healthier buildings.
āThe partnership between Santa Casa de Freamunde and Living PlanIT has allowed us to improve quality of life of our patients and
increase staff capabilities in both know-how and performance. We believe that the digitalization of our institution is key to the
innovation, continuous efforts and commitment to the care we provide to our patients ā and our partnership with Living PlanIT is the
driver to achieve these goalsā

People & Microbes living Together
The composition and viability of indoor microbial communities are determined largely by characteristics of the building in which they
inhabit, including the availability of water and nutrients for growth and survival, the buildingās occupants and the external environment.
The building systems,and how these are operated, affects the microbialcommunity.
The characteristics of healthy indoor environments is difficult to define and affected by such things as the building ventilation systems and
the chemistry of building materials, and in ways that impact the microbial communities. A better understanding is needed to promote
health and prevent disease. The factors and influences are extraordinarily complex and can be explored only asa dynamic, interconnected
ecosystem by engagingthe fields of microbial biology and ecology, chemistry, building science, and human physiology.
The impact of building operations and maintenance on the health-supporting aspects of the indoor environment are often overlooked. For
example, replacing air filters regularly and avoiding water stagnation can have a significant effect on the health of people in a building, but
deciding how, when and where to do so is not always clear. The use of intelligent sensing is an effective way of managing these and other
important actions. The water quality, air temperature and humidity and performance of natural and artificial ventilation systems all have a
strong influence on the survivability of bacteria, fungi andviruses.
