Premier Energy USA is the #1 ThermaRay dealer and distributor in the US, with over 25 years installing electric radiant heating in floors and ceilings, plus heated driveways and snow-melt systems, for homes, businesses and industrial buildings. It partners with Premier Energy Controls for open-protocol building automation.
New construction, remodel, or retrofit — ThermaRay electric radiant heat installs into floors, ceilings, and outdoor surfaces, with control options from a simple wall dial to full building automation.
Installed in new construction slab-on-grade buildings and basements as a primary heat source. Off-peak charging stores heat in a 24– 30″ thermal mass for low operating costs.
Installed between trusses or rafters directly above the ceiling. Remodel, new-build, and retrofit applications as primary or supplemental heat.
Surface-mounted, hung, or dropped into a 2′×2′ or 2′×4′ T-bar grid. Complements a building's design while providing primary, supplemental, or spot heat.
A limited-mass system installed below the wear surface — protected from the contraction, expansion, and chemical exposure that destroys systems embedded directly in concrete.
Installed below the subfloor between floor trusses. Doesn't raise floor height and delivers more heat per square foot as primary, supplemental, or luxury heat.
Installed on top of the subfloor and below the finished flooring — virtually any flooring surface can be placed over it. Primary, supplemental, or luxury heat.
Installed below the wear surface — not embedded directly in concrete — the ThermaRay limited mass system stays protected from the contraction, expansion, heaving, and chemical erosion that destroy systems poured directly into the slab.
Snow sensors monitor moisture and temperature to detect when ice or snow is imminent, activating the system automatically and keeping walkways clear until conditions subside — no shoveling, plowing, or salt required.
Straight from Premier Energy USA's video library — installers, homeowners, and building owners on what it's actually like to install and live with ThermaRay radiant heat.
Watch and learn how to install a ThermaRay Thermal Mass Floor Heating System under concrete — from a small addition to a 500,000 sq. ft. facility.
See how a ThermaRay radiant ceiling system is installed, and why it warms a space as efficiently and gently as the sun.
Watch and learn how to install a ThermaRay floor warming cable system above the subfloor or concrete — the lowest-profile cable in the industry.
Dan and Mary Ellen wanted radiant ceiling heat in their new home near Lake Michigan after 35 years with the same system in their previous house.
Forced air and convection systems mainly heat the air in a room. Radiant heat travels in straight lines and warms the walls, floor, furniture — everything in the space becomes part of the heating system, the same way stepping from shade into sunlight warms you immediately.
Premier Energy Controls, Premier Energy USA's controls partner, provides BTL-listed, open-protocol BACnet and Modbus controllers that can coordinate radiant systems alongside the rest of a building's HVAC.
ThermaRay offers six electric radiant systems: thermal mass storage floor heating under concrete, radiant ceiling heat above the ceiling, architectural series metal heaters that mount on a surface, hang or drop into a T-bar grid, snow and ice melting under concrete, pavers or asphalt, radiant floor joist heating under the subfloor, and floor warming systems under tile, granite and other finished floors.
Forced air and convection systems mainly heat the air in a room. Radiant heat travels in straight lines and warms the walls, floor and furniture directly, so everything in the space becomes part of the heating system. It feels like stepping from shade into sunlight, with no fans blowing air around the room.
Yes. Radiant ceiling heat warms a space as efficiently and gently as the sun: it heats the floor, furniture and people below directly instead of heating the air. ThermaRay radiant ceiling heat installs between trusses or rafters directly above the ceiling, for new builds, remodels and retrofits, as a primary or supplemental heat source.
For many homes and businesses, yes. A ThermaRay snow melt system under a driveway, sidewalk or parking lot uses snow sensors to switch on automatically when snow or ice is imminent and keeps surfaces clear until conditions subside, with no shoveling, plowing or salt. It also reduces labor, liability and maintenance, and may positively impact liability insurance premiums; check with your insurance agent.
It depends on the size of the area, the surface (concrete, pavers or asphalt) and the controls, which range from a simple wall thermostat to fully automated, sensor-driven activation. Premier Energy USA quotes each project individually; contact Don Mordal at (800) 506-7973 or donm@premierenergyusa.com. Sensor-driven systems run only when snow or ice is imminent, until conditions subside.
Heating systems poured directly into the slab can be destroyed by the contraction, expansion, heaving and chemical erosion that concrete goes through, especially with salt and de-icers. The ThermaRay limited mass system is installed below the wear surface instead, so it stays protected from those forces, and it removes the need for salt in the first place.
