Infra-Red energy is similar to visible light, radio waves and x-rays. It travels at the speed of light as energy is reconstructed into heat only on direct contact with solid surfaces.
INFRA-RED GALLERY
Human skin is most receptive to infra-red heating. It is unaffected by influences such as air temperatures or movement and can be focused and directed with reflectors.
The selectivity of infra-red conversion into heat greatly benefits comfort heating and industrial processing because only the amount of heat actually required needs to be produced and it is easily directed to the precise location. In commercial use this allows selected indoor areas to be heated to comfort tlecel without raising the temperature away from that immediate position. This quality is unique to infra-red heating and can effect great saving in fuel costs. In commercial use this allows selected indoor areas to be heated to comfort level without raising the temperature away from that immediate position.
Zone or broad heating is achieved by positioning specified numbers or combinations of heaters at appropriate heights and locations. This type of heating does not directly heat air, keeping the air fresh and invigorating. Objects and surfaces including furniture, floors and walls absorb and re-radiate warmth to further raise comfort levels. Air movement, over these heated objects, will raise the temperature of this air.
