When it comes to outdoor heaters, the only thing that comes to mind is big, high electricity consumption, difficult to use heaters. However, radiant heaters are very effective in outdoor heating systems. In fact, radiant heaters are specially produced to heat open – semi-open areas that are difficult to heat. It is extremely ergonomic and economical.
Why Radiant Heater?
Outdoor heating (parks, gardens, open parts of cafes, open meeting rooms, etc.) is extremely difficult to heat since it is not insulated and is exposed to all weather conditions. It is impossible to heat open spaces with conventional heaters. Especially since fan heaters focus on heating the ambient temperature, it is impossible because the heat wave will mix with the ambient air and disappear. Radiant heaters, on the other hand, are a system focused on increasing the surface temperature of objects and people in the environment, not the ambient air. They provide this heating with infrared rays. Therefore, they continue the surface temperature without being affected by any weather conditions and without being absorbed by the air. This is one of the reasons why it is preferred so much in outdoor heating systems.
How Should Open Air Heating Systems Be?
• It should be economical. It should not increase investment and energy costs.
• Maintenance and assembly costs should be low.
• It should not be affected by cold weather.
• It should not be affected by the wind.
• It should be durable.
• It should not provide ambient heating. • It should show high performance.
• It should show high performance.
The Role of Radiant Heaters in Outdoor Heating
Radiant heaters, as we mentioned above, are devices that provide surface heat. This surface heat is provided by infrared rays. Thus, it is not absorbed by the cold air. This allows you to get the highest efficiency in open areas. The biggest reason for using radiant heaters in outdoor heating systems is that they are very economical. It easily heats large and hard-to-heat areas using very low fuel.
In addition, since there are more than one model of radiant heaters, the most suitable heater is selected for the areas to be heated, thereby increasing the efficiency to 100%. Installation difficulties experienced in open areas, difficulty in finding a place do not apply to radiant heaters. Since they have an ergonomic structure and can be used with footed stands, they can be easily installed in any area. Since their designs are stylish, they do not create visual pollution in any place and adapt to the architecture.
Features of Radiant Heaters
• They are very economical. Thus, they greatly reduce investment costs and expenses.
• Maintenance and repair costs are very low.
• Radiant heaters, whose periodic maintenance is done on time, can be used safely for many years.
• Due to their ergonomic structure, they adapt to any space. Thus, they offer high efficiency without hindering the decoration or any structure in the space to be heated.
• It has different temperature settings and regional temperature change features.
• They heat large areas in a short time with low energy consumption. Thus, they provide the user with the opportunity to save energy.
• They create a very homogeneous heat distribution. They play a major role in increasing the comfort level in stores.
