achieve spot, zonal and smart heating within occupation zones within a building. Though multiple applications of long wave or FIR heating exist, a common representation comprises radiant panel heaters. Radiant panel heaters typically contain a grid of resistance wire or ribbons which are sandwiched between a thin plate of electrical insulation on an emitting die and thermal insulation on the back side. Owing to their size and flexibility, infrared panel heaters can be fitted on walls and ceilings for added-space saving benefits. Electric FIR panel heaters are shown to have up to 98.5% efficiency from supply to production of heat with satisfactory thermal comfort, thermostatic control, and with low initial investment.

Certain heating pads have been marketed to provide "far infrared" therapy, which is claimed to offer deeper penetration. However, the infrared radiation emitted by an object is determined by its temperature. Therefore, all heating pads emit the same type of infrared radiation if they are at the same

Researchers have observed that among all forms of radiant heat, only far-infrared radiation transfers energy solely in the form of heat that can be sensed by the human body. They have found that this type of radiant heat can penetrate the skin up to a depth of approximately 1.5 inches (3.8 cm).

is the most prominent far-infrared object in the sky, with its central region emitting amounts of far infrared light equivalent to the combined emissions of all the stars in the Milky Way. As of 29 May 2012, the source responsible for heating the dust at the center of M82 remains unknown.

Infrared heating (IR) is a method of heating an area through more efficient results than gas or electric convection heating. Studies show IR heats faster, more uniformly, and more efficiently than a traditional conventional system. Increasingly, IR heating is utilised as part of scheme designs to
