Infrared Radiant Heating

From Detroit Radiant Products Company
 

 

Infrared heating units are effective for spot heating. However, because of efficient performance, they are also used for total heating of large areas and entire buildings (Buckley 1989). Radiant heaters transfer energy directly to solid objects. Little energy is lost during transmission because air is a poor absorber of infrared energy. Since an intermediate transfer medium (such as air or water) is not needed, fans or pumps are not required.
