The heating season is in full swing and you came to the right place. We review and test all kinds of infrared heaters – indoor, outdoor, garage, patio and portable. Our teams includes HVAC industry experts who are very confident in their recommendations.
Advantages of infrared heaters
In case you did not know – infrared heat is the safest and most efficient type of heat available to consumers. Heaters that use this technology are very safe and economical and make you stay perfect warm. Due to nature of infrared radiation the heat is spread instantly and evenly, requiring no air movement. That’s right, infrared heaters do not push hot air like most convectional devices, but rather emit special (totally safe) radiation that is transferred to all bodies that are capable of receiving heat. Once energy is received by one body it begins to emit its own heat waves that are transferred to other bodies. Infrared heating works like light, whatever the waves shine on absorbs and reflects them.
When comparing to convection principle heaters, an infrared heater is typically:
- Cost-Effective
- Efficient
- Safe
- Quick
- Versatile
Most IR heaters use special lamps that are similar in wattage to regular light bulbs. Some portable models use natural gas as their source of energy. IR heaters are perfect for home use, especially in drafty rooms. When heating larger rooms like garages or retail space one strategically placed powerful infrared heater can replace an entire duct heating system with fans. Gas or electrical powered heaters can be used outdoors at patios, bars and public spaces.
