A tailored proposal for your space, finish and installation.
An image that makes the space your own
A photo, graphic design or another suitable image can make a heating panel a considered interior feature. Our metal Bild range combines a personalised image with infrared warmth. The panel retains its heating function while the front receives an individual image. Discuss quality, proportions and desired crop before confirming production.
First size and output, then the crop
An image has its own proportions; a heating panel needs dimensions suitable for the space. Therefore first determine the technical version, then consider how your image is placed on it. Our metal photo panels combine ESHC Plus technology with a satin-matt front. Supply only material you have permission to use and have the final image choice confirmed in writing.
How to supply your image
Send the original image file, preferably in JPEG, TIFF or PSD format. For the selected panel dimensions, we prefer 300 dpi with a minimum of 100 dpi. Enlarging a small photo or only changing its dpi setting does not add missing detail. We assess quality and proportions for the desired version.
Check that cropping preserves faces, text and important details. The proof helps coordinate size and composition before commissioning. Colours on a screen and printed front may differ slightly; the proof image is approximate. Therefore discuss specific colour preferences beforehand and supply only an image you may reproduce for this purpose.
A Welltherm infrared panel with your own photo or artwork remains a heating product: capacity, positioning and suitable controls belong to selection. Read our guide to Welltherm photo panels and picture heating for examples, image requirements and enquiry preparation.

An infrared panel with your own photo for your interior
A landscape photo, your own artwork or graphic design gives a space personal character. With the metal Bild range, you choose a heating panel carrying your image on its front. It can match room colours, display a memory or form part of a business interior. An infrared panel with your own photo nevertheless remains a technical product. We therefore determine not only your preferred image but also which version provides sufficient warmth in the chosen position.
During initial image selection, consider the distance from which you usually see the panel. An understated landscape may work pleasantly from afar, while fine text and small details require different assessment. Also include furniture, sight lines and lighting. An image part hidden behind a cupboard or table has little design value and may also indicate poor heating positioning. Therefore discuss image and mounting location as one choice.
Images on this page are application examples. They show how a photo panel can belong in an interior but do not automatically determine your order’s image, size or colour. You can supply your own suitable image file. If considering several candidates, send them and identify what matters to you. We help find a feasible combination of image proportions, quality and panel dimensions suitable for the space.
Image quality and resolution
For an infrared panel with your own photo, we assess the file at final panel dimensions. JPEG, TIFF and PSD are the listed source image formats. The preference is 300 dpi with a minimum of 100 dpi at the selected size. This concerns available detail when the image is used at actual size. A small file looking sharp on your phone may still contain insufficient information for a large print.
The combination of pixels and print size makes this concrete. For an image measuring 59.2 by 119.2 centimetres, approximately 2331 by 4693 pixels are needed at 100 dpi; at 300 dpi, around 6992 by 14079 pixels. These are calculation examples for the full dimensions before any cropping or technical preparation. They explain why we prefer the original file. Final assessment also considers sharpness, image content and selected composition.
Changing only the dpi number in software adds no detail. A screenshot or heavily reduced version from a message can also lose quality. Therefore send the original image at the highest available quality and retain a copy yourself. For a large file, discuss how to supply it. We assess suitability before confirming the design; a large file alone does not guarantee a sharp or well-fitting image.
The right crop for an infrared panel with your own photo
A square image fits a rectangular panel differently from a square model. When proportions differ, the image must be cropped or otherwise adapted. Cropping can remove edge areas. Therefore identify elements that must remain: a face, horizon, text or another important detail. A suitable photo has enough space for those choices without unintentionally cutting off its subject.
Start with technically suitable panel dimensions, then view the image at those proportions. Choosing a model only because the photo fits perfectly makes little sense if output or mounting location is unsuitable. Sometimes another crop works; sometimes a different image is better. We discuss this beforehand. For an infrared panel with your own photo, dimensions, image and desired orientation are therefore recorded together.
Check the proof carefully before confirming the final version. Look beyond atmosphere to details and edges. For an image with text, legibility is particularly important. Graphic editing or retouching may form part of preparation and is discussed separately. Provide changes in time so the agreed image version is clear. This prevents confusion between an initial example and the design actually intended for production.
Colour representation on the satin-matt metal front
Our Bild version has a metal front with a satin-matt finish. This differs from a screen, photo paper or canvas. Colour appearance also depends on material and room lighting. Therefore treat a digital preview as an aid to composition, not an exact prediction of every shade on the finished heating panel.
A printed proof approximates final colour. Slight colour variations may occur in production because of material differences. Particularly for skin tones, subtle greys or colours beside another surface, discuss specific preferences beforehand. An infrared panel with your own photo gives considerable image freedom, but that freedom also calls for careful coordination of print expectations.
If you mainly want a solid colour matching an interior code, compare the metal infrared panel in a RAL colour. This is another version with an individual colour choice. For a personalised landscape, photo or design, choose Bild. Both solutions have their own article details and preparation. We help determine the version best matching what you want to display.
Compare the 6 models and their outputs
This range includes six models, from the 330-watt BIPB0330 to the 1210-watt BIPB1210. The table gives exact dimensions and weights by item. Square BIPB0330 measures 59.2 by 59.2 centimetres. Models of 510, 710 and 910 watts share a 59.2-centimetre width with different lengths. There is also an 80 by 120-centimetre version at 1000 watts and a 75 by 150-centimetre model at 1210 watts.
Use the table to compare size and output together. Aspect ratio determines what can happen to your image, while output must meet heat demand. All listed models are 1.7 centimetres thick. Required installation space also follows instructions and prescribed clearances. An infrared panel with your own photo must therefore not only fit the available area but also function well there.
For heating advice, we consider room dimensions and height, insulation, windows and usage. Supplementary heating during brief occupancy needs a different assessment from a complete heating solution. A fixed wattage per square metre is insufficient for every building. Prepare the choice using our explanation of calculating infrared heating. Article buttons include your model in the enquiry; we discuss the original image file separately.
Positioning, installation and suitable controls
An infrared panel with your own photo from this metal range suits wall and ceiling mounting under the associated instructions. On a wall, the image is often a visible interior feature. For ceiling mounting, also assess how the image is viewed from the space. In both cases, panel positioning must match heat demand, available substrate and electrical connection.
Weights range from 7.8 to 21.5 kilograms. Ensure substrate and fixings suit the selected model and installation method. Observe prescribed clearances and position the panel where warmth reaches the intended zone. The protection rating is IP21; therefore do not choose this range for every bathroom zone or damp environment without assessment. For installation, consult your item’s manual on the downloads page.
Models use ESHC Plus technology and are described with a 650-millimetre white connection cable and precon GST15i3. Suitable temperature controls are chosen separately. We match the panel, any receiver and thermostat together; a fitting plug alone does not establish suitability of the whole combination. Read more about precon and controls. Wi-Fi and remote operation depend on the selected control solution and are not standard built-in features of every photo panel.
From your own image to a complete proposal
Provide the desired article number, panel quantity and room details in your enquiry. Send your original image and specify details that must survive cropping. For an infrared panel with your own photo, we then coordinate technical selection and image preparation. A clear enquiry helps assess possibilities, required controls and any additional editing to discuss.
Use only material you may reproduce for this application. An image visible online is not automatically available for production. For a purchased image, any image costs and permitted uses belong to preparation. We also discuss retouching or graphic editing beforehand. The proposal records the chosen image, crop, product version and conditions. Delivery timing for your personalised version is coordinated there too.
Welltherm develops and manufactures panels in Germany; HeatXL supports you as Benelux distributor with product advice, coordination and service. For product and distribution questions, contact HeatXL. Also view the warranty terms and support for applicable panels. You then choose not just an image but a complete heating solution with product details and arrangements fitting your project.
An infrared panel with your own photo in daily use
The image does not change the selected model’s nominal output. Wattage and actual operating time matter for electricity consumption. A 1000-watt panel uses 1 kilowatt-hour during one hour of continuous heating. Costs follow your electricity tariff. A thermostat programme active for several hours does not mean the panel heats continuously throughout. Insulation, outdoor temperature and desired room temperature also determine how long heat is needed.
Therefore match usage times to your daily routine. In a study, targeted supplementary heating during work may need a different approach from daily living room heating. We assess the application for your situation and promise no fixed savings percentage for a photo panel. Read our explanation of energy use and costs to determine comparison starting points.
Keep the final image, confirmed crop and article details with purchase information. This helps identify the agreed version during a later enquiry. Follow your panel’s maintenance and cleaning instructions. Do not cover its heating surface with another decoration or alter the finish yourself. An infrared panel with your own photo already carries the chosen image; technical operating instructions remain part of the complete solution.
Documentation for your version
Match the product information and installation instructions to your chosen article number. On the downloads page, we give Dutch documents priority where available.
