Infrared tube heaters are an efficient and cost-effective heating solution for large commercial spaces like warehouses, garages, and industrial buildings. These systems use radiant heat, mimicking the way the sun warms objects, to create a comfortable environment without wasting energy heating the air.
How Infrared Tube Heaters Work
Unlike traditional forced-air systems, infrared heaters emit radiation that warms floors, walls, and objects directly. This makes them ideal for buildings with high ceilings or poor insulation, as the heat doesn't rise and dissipate. Instead, it remains concentrated where it's needed most—at the floor level, where employees and equipment are located.
Benefits of Infrared Tube Heaters
Energy Efficiency: Infrared heaters can reduce energy costs by focusing heat where it’s needed.
Comfort: These systems provide steady, even warmth without the drafts associated with forced-air systems.
Low Maintenance: With fewer moving parts than traditional systems, infrared heaters are reliable and require minimal upkeep.
Commercial Applications
Infrared tube heaters are particularly useful in environments with high ceilings, such as manufacturing facilities, distribution centers, and auto repair shops. Their design also makes them effective in areas that require spot heating or need to maintain specific temperatures for equipment or materials.
Considerations for Inspectors
When inspecting a property equipped with infrared tube heaters, check for proper installation, ventilation, and regular maintenance. Ensure that the heating elements are free from dust and debris, and verify that the system complies with local safety regulations.
