Gorilla Events | Nottingham
Project Background
Before installation, Gorilla Events relied on conventional convection heaters that struggled to heat their varied office spaces effectively. The mix of open-plan areas, meeting rooms, and production spaces meant heating demand often changed throughout the day, making temperature management inconsistent and inefficient.
As a creative agency working in the live events sector, Gorilla Events required a modern, flexible heating solution that matched their dynamic workflow — one that could adapt quickly to changing occupancy, provide zoned control, and maintain a comfortable working environment without excessive running costs.
They sought a stylish, low-maintenance, and sustainable system that would complement their modern interior design while offering precise control from any location.
Objectives:
Provide efficient, responsive heating for a multi-use office environment.
Reduce energy consumption and improve comfort across all work zones.
Enable flexible, zoned control from smart devices.
Ensure fast warm-up times to match a fast-moving workplace.
Deliver a clean, modern aesthetic suitable for an open office.
Key Features:
Installation of 1100W and 700W Classic Infrared Panels for individual workspaces and meeting areas.
1.5kW Infrared Bar Heaters installed in larger open areas and higher-ceiling sections.
Full integration with a Smart Wi-Fi control system accessible via smartphone or computer.
Discreet ceiling and wall-mounted positioning for maximum comfort and minimal visual impact.
Rapid warm-up times providing instant, even heat throughout the building.
Discover Phase
Conducted an on-site survey to assess building layout, ceiling heights, and existing electrical capacity.
Identified the differing heating requirements of open areas versus enclosed offices.
Worked with Gorilla Events’ team to understand usage patterns and design preferences.
