Direct gas air heaters

Why choose direct gas-fired air heaters?

Throughout the year, but especially in the colder months, a reliable, consistent way to generate warm air is vital to keep workers productive and protect temperature-sensitive applications. Direct gas-fired heating is a high-efficiency, cost-effective way to deliver much-needed heat to well-ventilated areas.

Useful across many industrial and commercial environments, our range of direct-fired heating systems is engineered to generate exceptional heating power in all circumstances, whether you are looking after peoples’ comfort or keeping equipment running optimally.

A direct-fired gas heater warms cold air by placing it in direct contact with an open flame, with hot air being produced at the other end. Due to this contact with the flame, the vast majority of the fuel used is converted into useful heat energy, delivering close to 100% fuel efficiency.

Other benefits of our direct-fired heating units include:

• Low cost of purchase due to the relatively simple construction and low number of moving parts compared to an indirect-fired heater (e.g. no heat exchanger)
• High efficiency and low fuel consumption mean that running costs are minimal when compared to electric heaters
• Easy to service, resulting in reduced maintenance costs

However, it is important that direct gas-fired heaters are only used in well-ventilated spaces when there are people or animals present. This is because exposure to an open flame means the heat output will contain by-products of combustion, such as CO2 and water molecules.

Gas-fired heaters also offer several benefits over oil-fired equivalents, including:

• More cost-effective operation in the long-term
• Adjustable heat output to suit the size of the space
• Lighter construction for increased mobility
• Quicker and less complex maintenance

Our range includes both portable heaters, capable of providing instantaneous heat to any area with minimal setup, and fixed heaters, which are well-suited for areas with high air flow requirements, such as greenhouses, animal housing and workshops.

All our heating solutions are designed through our decades of experience, with a firm focus on energy efficiency, sustainability and reliability in all environments.
