Electric wallpaper will change home heating forever as a high-tech alternative warms the room in 3 minutes and reduces energy costs

A NEWLY released invention could change homes forever by heating rooms quickly without driving up energy costs.

NexGen Heating has just begun installing electric wallpaper in homes to promote sustainability while saving consumers money.

The wallpaper is being tested in Glasgow, Scotland, where houses are among the oldest and most poorly insulated in Europe, Express & Star reported.

The average Scottish home loses heat three times faster than other homes in Europe, and Glasgow alone is responsible for a significant percentage of the UK’s carbon emissions.

NexGen hopes to help with its infrared-powered wallpaper, which radiates heat from the ceiling when needed.

Instead of blowing heat across a spacious room, the wallpaper creates a “warm zone” in just three minutes that feels like “gentle sunshine on the skin,” according to the company.

“This means you can turn off the heating throughout the day when you are away from home and heat the bedrooms for just a few minutes before bed,” says NexGen’s website.

The creative product is not only cheap to power, but also cheap to maintain as it contains no “moving parts” that require regular maintenance.

In addition, infrared radiation penetrates directly into the walls, evaporating moisture and eliminating dampness and mold.

“We offer a 15-year warranty as standard,” the company says.

Twelve properties in Glasgow have been fitted with the wallpaper after months of testing ended with “excellent feedback”, said Andrew Kubski of the West of Scotland Housing Association.

Using artificial intelligence analysis and interviews with tenants, engineers could optimize their products to achieve the best results.

“We welcome the opportunity to work with the University of Glasgow and the University of Strathclyde to conduct comprehensive scientific research into the effectiveness of electric wallpaper.”

ZERO CARBON SOLUTION

NexGen hopes its wallpaper will create carbon-free solutions to limit the amount of CO2 emitted into the Earth’s atmosphere.

Combined with solar panels and batteries, the wallpaper leaves no ecological footprint.

Due to the design of the wallpaper, the heating solution can warm even hard-to-reach places where there are usually drafts.

“NexGen’s far infrared heats people and objects directly and does not rely on air for heat transfer,” the company says.

“NexGen also stores energy (“thermal mass”) in the room structure, so the room cools more slowly.

“This helps make NexGen less susceptible to poor insulation. NexGen is a great alternative for homes that are difficult to heat.”

The US Sun has contacted NexGen to find out whether the products will be available outside of Scotland.

Those living outside Glasgow can save money on energy costs by maximizing the efficiency of their home.
