Infrared electric heaters

Infrared heaters heat objects without heating the air, making them suitable for drying plaster walls, paints and outside or dusty areas. Once walls or objects are penetrated with heat, they can also reradiate and heat other objects, meaning a very efficient method of heating.

Why choose infrared electric heaters?

Unlike conventional electric air heaters which heat the atmosphere itself, electric infrared heaters directly warm objects without disturbing the air. This type of radiant heat is similar to the warmth generated by the sun and can prove advantageous, especially in commercial applications, because:

  • Industrial infrared heaters warm spaces evenly
  • These devices are suitable for use indoors and out
  • Infrared heating is energy efficient and highly effective
  • This technology can be deployed flexibly as systems are mobile
  • The heat generated can warm hard-to-reach spaces
  • The type of thermal energy generated is clean and fume-free

This form of heating is exceptionally well-suited to industrial and commercial applications because infrared radiant heat is able to warm objects and people quickly regardless of air temperature and the size of a space. This makes infrared heating systems ideal for many roles, such as:

  • Drying wet plaster or paint on a construction site
  • Heating bodies inside dusty areas, such as warehouses and factories
  • Keeping objects from becoming too cold or freezing in an agricultural setting

In addition to that, infrared heating systems are 100% energy efficient, meaning that all of the electricity supplied to the system is utilised to produce thermal radiation. As no energy is wasted during the electric heating process, operating costs can be kept to a minimum, while safety and comfort are maximised.

Furthermore, instead of relying on warm air to heat rooms, infrared heaters transfer energy to objects and people in their immediate path. As a result, spaces stay warmer for longer, as heated objects re-radiate warmth over time, and are not affected by the breeze from open windows and doors.

Infrared electric heaters: Frequently Asked Questions

What is an infrared electric heater?

Unlike conventional heaters that warm the air itself, infrared electric heaters produce radiant heat. This type of energy is similar to the sun’s warmth, meaning it can deliver heat directly to employees and equipment without being disturbed by air movement.

How do infrared electric heaters work?

Electric infrared heaters work by converting electrical power into radiant heat. To do this, a ceramic heating element is either warmed up, or an infrared light is powered on, emitting heat in turn.

What are the benefits of using an infrared electric heater?

These types of systems deliver a constant stream of heat in even the draughtiest facilities. But above all else, infrared electric heaters are perfectly suited to a wide range of commercial applications because:

  • They are exceptionally energy efficient
  • They warm spaces and objects quickly and evenly
  • They are highly effective indoors and out
  • The heat generated is clean and free of noxious fumes
  • Technology is light and highly portable

Are infrared electric heaters safe to use?

Yes. Infrared electric heaters are safe to use when they are operated responsibly and kept at a suitable distance from people. It is also important to ensure that these heaters are secured to the ground during operation.

At Dantherm Group, our market-leading technology is designed with safety in mind from the very beginning. That is why our entire lineup of electric infrared heaters incorporates state-of-the-art safety features, such as anti-tilt switches and overheat protection.

Can infrared electric heaters be used outdoors?

Yes. Much like the sun’s rays, radiant heat is unaffected by the wind, no matter how strong. This makes infrared technology a reliable source of heat in any outdoor climate.

How do I choose the right infrared electric heater for my facility?

Whether you need to dry plaster outdoors, spot heat teams inside or defrost pipework on-site, the role your infrared heater must perform will help determine the unit best fit for your needs.

Our professional team have the expertise to consult on the best infrared equipment for you, recommending only solutions that deliver heat in the most efficient, effective and cost-conscious way possible.

Can I buy your infrared electric heaters online?

For all of our infrared electric heaters, VAT-registered companies can get a quote very quickly by pressing 'I want to buy' and inserting their enquiry and contact details.
