Electric Radiant Ceiling Heat Repair
Electric radiant ceiling heat was once a popular heating system, especially in all-electric apartments and rental properties during the 1960s and 70s. These systems provide quiet, draft-free heating, but since they are embedded in the ceiling, diagnosing and repairing issues can be challenging.
At Dial ONE Schilling, we specialize in electric radiant heat service and repair in Long Beach, Lakewood, and surrounding areas. We are one of the few companies in Southern California with the expertise to diagnose, locate, and repair breaks in ceiling heat systems without damaging your ceiling.

Common Ceiling Heat Problems & Repairs
Radiant ceiling heat systems are simple in design but can develop issues over time, especially if they have been accidentally damaged by screws, nails, or ceiling modifications. Our team uses infrared cameras and advanced troubleshooting techniques to locate issues with pinpoint accuracy.
- No Heat in One or More Rooms: A broken wire or thermostat issue can cause sections of the ceiling to stop heating.
- Uneven Heating or Cold Spots: Damaged or disconnected heating wires can prevent even heat distribution.
- Ceiling Damage from Drilling or Screws: Accidentally puncturing a heating panel can break the embedded wires, requiring precision repair.
