Saving energy with industrial space heaters

Ben Winrow • January 12, 2015

For any company with large industrial spaces, warehouses, factories, units or halls to heat then saving energy is an absolute must. As resources become less and costs go up then energy costs become a critical part of business finances and any changes or upgrading of heating equipment that is needed to provide greater efficiency becomes a priority.


This is where industrial space heaters come in. Radiant tube heating or unit air heaters offer an effective, practical and efficient solution for keeping staff warm and keeping energy costs down. They can be individually designed and tailored to the requirements of the building and they can make a significant contribution to lowering energy costs.


The energy saving potential when heating a space lies in making the appropriate choice of heat transfer system. The heat transfer system determines the comfort level of the working space and the energy savings that can be made. When this is done correctly, savings of up to 30% can be made.


With our radiant heating systems solutions you can heat an area quicker and for much longer time periods. The radiant tube can be switched on when it is needed and the heat is felt almost immediately providing warmth for all inside. The beauty of radiant heating is that it can turned off before the end of the day and still provide enough heat to keep everybody warm.


With gas-fired unit air heaters or radiant heating you can be sure that you will be providing effective and energy-efficient heating. To find out more about our industrial space heaters and the tailored service we can offer then please contact us now and speak to one of our expert team. We will answer all your questions and help you to design a heating system that ticks all the boxes when it comes to energy-efficiency and providing comfort and warmth for your workforce.

Purchasing and installing a commercial heating system is only the beginning of utilising a new system. The maintenance of heating systems is arguably one of the most crucial elements in ensuring optimal performance, the lifespan of the equipment, and reducing operational costs in the running of a commercial heating system. Importance of Regular Maintenance of Heating Systems To ensure optimal performance, it is recommended that a maintenance program be adhered to based on the facility in which it has been installed and the equipment in place. The idea of preventive maintenance also plays a role in this, making sure that the commercial heating system is routinely inspected and maintained, allowing any small issues to be identified before they potentially become more costly issues down the track. While you may be thinking that sticking to a routine maintenance schedule may not be important, there are certainly downsides to not maintaining your commercial heating system in place. Some challenges that can be experienced include increased wear and tear, more energy can be consumed with outdated and non-maintained systems, poor insulation can lead to wasted energy, and unbalanced heating across areas of the commercial space.
