Infrared heating Panels are cost-effective and energy efficient heating solutions. With the drop in temperatures during the winter season, the risks for staff members as well as production processes go up considerably. The employees who are exposed to cold or freezing temperatures are vulnerable to severe health conditions such as the following:
- Hypothermia
- Trench foot and frostbite
Adding warmth to the working environment will ensure protection for the staff as well as benefit production processes. Moreover, adding heating to industrial processes may prevent corrosion on machinery and products and also has a fast return on investment.
When the working environment is kept in steady warm temperatures, the formation of condensation is prevented. Condensation may lead to corrosion in metals as well as other products.
Different types of commercial electric heaters include the following:
- Fan-driven heaters
- Unit heaters
- Explosion proof heaters
- Ceiling heaters
- Cabinet heaters
- Draft barriers
- Plenum heaters
- Industrial portable heaters
- Pump house heaters
- Radiant heaters
- Marine heaters
- Electric duct heaters
- Make up air units
Infrared heating is a latest addition to the household and commercial heating scene. It is emitted by the heater which then travels through an air till it hits an object. The radiation is absorbed by the object and molecules within it begin to vibrate, generating heat. Instead of buying oil, gas and solid fuel infrared heaters, it is advisable to employ electric infrared heating panels at home as there is no need to integrate any fuel storage facilities or pipe work on installation of the panels. Furthermore, no direct emissions are linked with the use of electric panels.
The infrared panels can be placed high up on the ceiling or on the walls so that it will not be difficult to keep them away from children and pets.
Conventional heating system is of different types, based on the energy source available and the space to be warmed. Conventional boiler is one of the most traditional ways of heating. However, with the advent of electric heaters, more and more people are purchasing these heaters due to the numerous advantages they offer.
