​We are pleased to announce that our Clear Heater System has been awarded the National Framework Agreement for Smart Heating Systems. The framework was awarded to us by The Countess of Chester NHS Foundation Trust Commercial Procurement Services and we are the sole supplier under this framework
 
The framework offers a fully compliant route for all NHS departments and public sector bodies (social housing landlords, local authorities and government departments) free access to the service. This will now save them the time and money developing, tendering and evaluating bids for the systems. 
 
This framework is designed to offer our highly efficient Clear Heater System to all members. The benefits of this framework include: 

• Multidirectional, phased infra-red heating. 
• Comfortable, evenly heated rooms. 
• Controllable temperature, you can set an overall building temperature with ‘zones’, separated common spaces with ‘links’, or by each individual heater.
• Controllable to a budget (carbon, cost & kWh) to save energy and money.
• Real-time system monitoring by Logicor and a dedicated technical support helpline.
• Zero maintenance required on the system.
• Comprehensive 20 year warranty on every system.

The system is easy to install with minimal distribution and is scalable across multiple buildings and sites.

Logicor's Clear Heater System has always combined innovative technology with style and later this year we'll  be launching a great way to enhance your decor more with our new custom CHS Art Covers. 

You'll be able to choose from a range of frames and art prints which we'll then use to create you an individual CHS Art Cover. This simply slides over your CHS Heater Panel without impeding its super efficient heating ability.
CHS Art Covers will be launched in the Autumn and announced on our website when available.

The first of several new features of Logicor's second generation CHS panels has been revealed:  Bluetooth connectivity to its 5 onboard speakers.

Customers will be able to select via the Logicor application on their phones or tablets, any music stored on that device and have their CHS heating system play that back. Three playback options will be available:
1. Playing the same music in each room throughout their homes;
2. Playing different songs in each room;
3. Using the "follow me" function to have your music playback follow you around your home as you move from room to room.

Customers with the generation one CHS system will be able to upgrade all or some of their heater bases so all customers will be able to have this feature regardless of the age of the CHS systems. The generation two CHS system has a host of additional features that will be announced here as we move closer to a launch date.

Watch the video to see how it works.

Today we began testing our new suspended ceiling mounted heaters.
These new ceiling heater units are designed to fit into a standard 600mm suspended ceiling section, which are frequently used in the office environment. Full customization through choice of colour, text and images will be possible; the example in the image here is silver.

We are now developing future CHS heater units and ILHWS hot water units to communicate with control panels via Bluetooth technology.

This will coincide with a new main Control Panel that has both Bluetooth and 4G capability allowing each heater system to communicate and receive updates independently of the customer's own WiFi connection.

Our new ceiling heater will be launched in September this year.

The new heaters are made from a light weight polycarbonate and will eventually be available in several colour options although the initial launch model will be white.  Each unit is capable of heating a 12m2 room at a power output at 940W.

Each ceiling heater unit detaches without tools for easy cleaning and is designed to go into rooms with limited wall space or simply as a design feature to free up wall space.

Advanced orders have already been placed for this product within a week of us advising distributors it was available. 

Whilst our installation programme gathers more pace it has become apparent that there is a higher than predicted level of homes in the UK not equipped with Wi-Fi access to the internet.

Customers without Wi-Fi are not benefiting from some of the higher end functionality of the Clear Heater system. To resolve this we have brought forward the launch of our 3G version of the Control Panel, which will be available during the first half of 2014.

In the meantime we will continue to assist customers where we can.

Clear Heater field trials begin with deployment into our own offices.

We are already seeing a reduction of costs of heating at our own offices of between 50%-70% on average.

The heaters look great and we have already received useful feedback on the appearance leading us to introduce a chrome frame instead of the aluminium versions.

These replace a standard radiator in a standard room and are electrically driven. They simply plug into any mains socket so installation is easy.
