Consider Installing Infrared Heating Units

If you are looking for an energy efficient heating method for your garage or work shed

, consider investing in an infrared heating system. Some benefits of infrared heating are that infrared heaters expel radiant heat, which means it does not circulate air and will not disturb papers or stir up dust in your work areas, and that, depending on the type you use, they decrease the humidity in a space, which can reduce rust and wear on tools and automobiles. Talk with one of our consultants to see if infrared heating is a good option for your space.

How Infrared Heating Works

Infrared heaters use propane or natural gas to power its heating mechanism, which radiates warmth, heating you and the objects near it, not the air itself. It heats in much the same way that the sun heats the earth, by warming the ground itself. For this reason, infrared heaters are extremely energy efficient because none of the heat is wasted, as it would be with a traditional heating solution that heats the air, because most of it rises and escapes. This way you and your work projects will be all that receives the heat. Even though the initial cost of the heaters may seem expensive, they will cost much less in the long run than other heating systems because of their efficiency. There are also thermostats you can install with your infrared heater that you can use to manage its heat output and efficiency even further.

Tube vs. Luminous

There are a couple types of infrared heaters you will have to choose from: the tube style and the luminous style. Tube infrared heaters are generally meant for heating smaller areas like residential garages or workshops. Since infrared heaters generate so much heat, it is necessary to install tube style heaters on a ceiling between ten to twenty-five feet high. They should also have some form of ventilation to prevent the heating tube from overheating and becoming damaged. The other option, a luminous infrared heater, is usually employed in larger areas, requiring a mounting height between fifteen and seventy feet. These kinds of heaters are best used by companies for various commercial buildings, but they can also be used for something that requires focused heat. Depending on your garage or other work space, you will most likely want tube infrared heaters, but there may be situations where you would want to look into luminous ones. You can call and consult with one of our professionals if you have any questions about what would best fit your needs.

Installation Considerations

Before you can begin installations on your infrared heater, you must obtain certain clearances. If you contact our representatives, we can walk you through everything you need to do to get infrared heaters for your space. Keep in mind that infrared tubes take up a lot of ceiling space, and you will have to install gas piping and ventilation for the heating units. There may be some preparation needed before you will be able to install depending on the state of your garage or work space. Our professionals can show you how you can prepare your space to be ready for installation.
