Among all the now existing infrared heaters in the heaters occupy a special niche. Their principle of operation consists in infrared radiation, which has a focused action. These devices are actively used for heating during the cold season of the premises of various purposes, such as shops, offices, supermarkets, warehouses, industrial workshops, etc. And even every year the popularity of their application for domestic purposes is growing, for example, at dachas or in country cottages.

The main advantages of infrared heaters

Heaters based on infrared radiation are distinguished by a lot of advantages, among which the following can be distinguished:

• ecology and absolute safety - infrared heaters are practically not absorbed by oxygen, do not emit harmful gases to the surrounding space, completely eliminate the likelihood of ignition or carbon monoxide poisoning;
• silent work;
• high efficiency and cost-effectiveness - this type of device in a matter of minutes has time to evenly heat the room and ensure the necessary comfort in it;
• compactness - most of these devices have a compact size, which allows them to mount on the wall, the ceiling is either in any other place, without occupying a large space;

• the possibility of using in the open space, which is due to resistance to sharp differences in temperature and humidity;
• easy and simplicity of installation.

The only disadvantage still remains for their sufficiently high cost compared to other types of heating devices.

Types of infrared heaters

Depending on the type of fuel used, it is customary to distinguish infrared heaters:

• diesel - more powerful devices that are able to warm up a large space. They occupy a lot of space, and therefore are used only for heating industrial or retail space;

• electric - small power and pretty economical devices that are used for both domestic purposes and in industrial. Most often have an attractive appearance and unusual design, so besides their main function, can serve as an ornament of any interior;
• gas - infrared heaters, which are designed for heating large rooms, such as country houses, cottages, etc. They are independent of the main power sources, but, at the same time, require the arrangement of a reliable ventilation system.

Criteria for the choice of infrared heater

Power

Before you begin the choice of a suitable model of this device, it is necessary to decide in advance with its destination. For what it will be used as the main source of heat or as an additional. Depending on this, you can choose the corresponding power of the infrared heater.

• Some experts recommend purchasing infrared heaters if this is the main source of heat, with a certain power supply in order to be able to compensate for the probable heat loss, for example, through the walls, overlapping at home, windows, etc.

Mounting place

• stationary infrared heater (ceiling, wall-mounted or floor film, etc.) is a device that is predominantly used as the main source of heat, which is mounted directly into the ceiling, walls, etc., for example, under plasterboard. Its main advantage is saving space and practicality in application. Infrared stationary type heaters perfectly fit into the surrounding interior of the room and can be almost invisible if desired.

• a portable infrared heater is a device that is used for point heating of the room and specific items. They have a compact size, due to which it can be easily transferred from one room to another.
