Infra Red Diesel Radiant Heaters

Sometimes forced air heaters are not the perfect space heater for the job.  In a wide open area heating the air and pushing that air around is simply a good way of losing heat and wasting fuel.

Sometimes you need some heat in an area, but because of the process being warmed, you don't want dust being kicked up by the fans of diesel space heaters.

In these situations a good alternative portable space heater is the Infra Red Diesel Radiant Heaters.  These have a burner like the diesel blow heater, but instead of the heat being blown by a fan it is focused on a large steel dish that acts as a hot plate.  It absorbs the heat, glows red - then heats the area that it is pointed at.

Unlike a standard diesel space heater a Infra Red Diesel Radiant Heater can be used in a completely open environment and they will still work effectively.

Of course like any portable heater the Infra Red Diesel Radiant Heater has it's compromises - in this case it is a direct fired heater, so it cannot be used where flammables are stored or in unventilated areas.
