Back in the 60's the electric company promoted radiant heat in ceiling. They called it a 5 star heating system and offered a reduced electric rate. Been working a rental property with radiant heat in the ceiling. It's like working in a toaster oven. Heat rises and the ceiling is like a crock pot. A lot of mass in the plaster over the heating wires and it takes a long time for plaster to heat up and a long time for it to cool off. I have to turn the thermostats on the lowest setting, work without a shirt and sweat.
