FAQs

What is a low intensity tube heater? ›

Low-Intensity Tube Heater

The low-intensity infrared tube heating system can reach up to 1300 degrees Fahrenheit emitting infrared energy to be absorbed by people and objects. This is accomplished by radiation (the primary way the heat travels) and conduction (heat transfer between objects and the air).

Which is better, infrared or radiant heat? ›

Infrared heaters are generally more environmentally friendly as they do not use combustion for heat generation, reducing carbon emissions. Radiant heaters, depending on their fuel source, may have a greater environmental impact—for example, if you use a combustion boiler to heat the water used in the system.

What is the difference between radiant heat and tube heaters? ›

In-floor radiant heat requires a separate room for the boiler or water heater to ensure access to a clean environment. Conversely, radiant tube heaters hang overhead making air intake and exhaust a snap–take air from and vent into the space or easily go through a side wall or roof for access to outside air.

What are the disadvantages of infrared heating? ›

The Cons of Infrared Heaters
  • Safety. The coils of infrared heaters get extremely hot so they can be dangerous to use around children and pets. ...
  • Limited Warming. For some, zone warming may not be ideal, and it could feel very limited if you're moving around a room a lot. ...
  • Stops Heating When Off.

Do tube heaters cost a lot to run? ›

Compared to all other heating methods mentioned, tubular heater running costs are way lower and would be ideal, especially for people looking for flexible heating solutions.

How long do radiant tube heaters last? ›

Several reasons typically lead to premature failure, which can cause expensive production delays. Radiant tubes can last anywhere between 1 and 5 years depending on the furnace and how it is designed and used, therefore it is useful to understand the common causes of premature failure and how to avoid them.

Do radiant tube heaters need to be vented? ›

They can be installed either vented or unvented, and may use outside air for combustion if necessary. The radiant tube may be installed in different configurations depending on the heating requirements. These heaters use infrared energy to heat spaces.

Are radiant tube heaters good? ›

By emitting infrared radiation directly to targeted areas, they offer heating solutions for a wide range of applications. Radiant tubes play a crucial role in delivering effective, energy-efficient, and comfortable heat in industrial processes.

How efficient are infrared tube heaters? ›

The ratio between the input power and the output power remaining inside the building. Energy losses through exhaust gas are the only factor analysed here. All infrared heaters have a thermal efficiency of up to 93% [tube heaters] or 95% [luminous heaters].

What are common problems with infrared heaters? ›

That's why we've put together an easy trouble-shooter for the most common symptoms you might come across when using infrared heating.
  • Symptom #1 – Heater Will Not Turn On. ...
  • Symptom #2 – Strange Smell Coming from the Heater. ...
  • Symptom #3 – The Heater is Overheating. ...
  • Symptom #4 – The Heater is not Warming the Room Up.

Who should not use infrared? ›

Thermal or heat injuries can happen, depending on the wavelength of the infrared light. Thermal injury can occur even without pain. Also, pregnant women, people with heart diseases, and those who are sick should never undergo infrared therapy.

Why is infrared heating not popular? ›

In older, draughty homes, infrared panels alone may not be enough to keep rooms warm. Rooms will feel nice and comfortable when they are on, but without good insulation, the room temperature will quickly cool down when the panels are switched off.

What is the difference between high intensity and low intensity infrared heaters? ›

The difference between high intensity heaters and low intensity heaters is based on the operation. For example, a high intensity heater's energy is emitted at a higher amplitude and temperature than a low intensity heater. High intensity heaters are also ventless.

Are tube heaters energy efficient? ›

Due to the low power usage, tube heaters make great heating appliances for your outdoor activities. You can use them in your caravan or mobile home for energy saving heat when you are outdoors.

What is a high intensity heater? ›

High-intensity (luminous) heaters

They can handle the toughest job for you and get comfort right down to floor level in an instant because the infrared heat waves they emit are absorbed by objects rather than the air. This lowers the cost of operation and the environmental impact.

What is the purpose of a tube heater? ›

Heating Exposed Areas of the Home

Because tubular heaters are easily portable and can be affixed to the wall in certain areas, they are ideal for providing ongoing background heat to these cooler areas to create a comfortable environment to work, rest or entertain in.
