Why buy an infrared heater?

An infrared heater uses heat very similar to the sun and its silent technology will not disturb the home environment in any way. Infrared technology also does not use as much energy as the leading space heater.  In fact, you'll get more heat from an infrared heater than you will from traditional heating options. Infrared heat also does not create a stuffy feeling as most heaters do because no air is being pushed around.  Heat is distributed evenly.

How do infrared heaters work?

Infrared rays are not visible light rays - they're located just under the color red in the visible light spectrum. The heat we feel on Earth is from the infrared rays from the sun. The most beneficial of those infrared rays are the far rays because they promote blood circulation and healing.

How are infrared heaters different from other heaters?

Most heaters heat the ambient air of the room via convection, which heats the air and circulates the warmth out into the room. An infrared heater transfers most of the heat through direct infrared radiation to heat up objects being hit by the radiation in the room.  Therefore, you save money because the heater is heating you and not the whole room.  The infrared heat will then penetrate your skin, warm you from beneath your skin, and radiate outward.  Not only will the heater warm you, but it will also heat anyone near you because a portion of the heat will reflect off your skin.  

How large of an area can an infrared heater heat?

Most of our electric infrared heaters can heat up to 150sq. ft. The typical wattage in an average home cannot exceed 1500 watts.  Thus, the most heat you can produce from a space heater is about the average bedroom.

How do most people use infrared heaters?

Electric infrared heaters produce heat very quickly, and the heat is easily directed to the space in a very precise beam. Because you're not heating all the air in the entire room, electric infrared heaters use less energy to heat up the room at a much faster speed. Infrared heaters are great for instant heat on those chilly mornings. Save your feet from the cold tile on the floor in the kitchen or bathroom with an infrared heater!
