A heat emitting radiator for use in a fluid circuit containing coolant therein, and which can generate substantial amounts of heat to heat larger spaces, such as in a home or business, while utilizing minimal power to run, and which can be utilized in various implementations and configurations. The radiator can be selectively activated or de-activated by, for example, a cell phone or the like whereby the fluid circuit in the radiator can be monitored for time of use, temperature and cost of use.

A radiant heater is disclosed. The radiant heater includes a heating layer, with a first elongated conductor configured to receive electricity and a second elongated conductor disposed parallel to the first conductor. A continuous sheet of resistive material adapted to produce heat in response to electrical current is disposed between the first and second elongated conductor. The heater also includes a transparent layer and a non-transparent functional layer that is disposed between the heating layer and the transparent layer. In a preferred aspect, the invention is in the form of a heating mirror.
