Radiant Heating Systems for Business Use

Wednesday, February 1st, 2012

If your company is expanding and you have recently moved into a new commercial property or industrial unit, one of your first priorities should be to ensure that your new premises have a reliable heating system. Perhaps your new property has not previously been used as a place of work, or perhaps it has an old and inefficient heating system which isn’t suitable for a modern business premises. Either way, radiant heating units from Heaters Wholesale can give you the warm and comfortable commercial space that you require.

Whatever your business, giving your staff a warm working environment is essential. Read on to learn how Heaters Wholesale could enhance your commercial property with a new radiant heating installation.

Radiant Heating for Offices

As the winter weather continues, your office may be suffering from uncomfortably low temperatures. The sight of your staff working away in coats and hats is one sign that it may be time to invest in a new heating system. Long days spent working at a desk can be made much easier with the introduction of a reliable source of heat, and radiant heating is the perfect solution for a cold office.

Radiant heating will heat the furniture and flooring of your office, as well as your staff. This creates a series of secondary heaters which can help to maintain a comfortable temperature. This means that a busy office can be heated effectively throughout the day.

Radiant Heating in an Industrial Environment

Factories, industrial units Leicester and manufacturing spaces can all benefit from a radiant heating installation. We understand that in a busy industrial environment, doors are frequently opened to move goods and materials, which will lead to cold air entering your property. Radiant heating can combat this, as a steady and comfortable temperature will be maintained by the secondary heaters – floors, furniture and people – within your space. This makes radiant heating a much more efficient alternative to a conventional blown-air system.

A radiant heating unit is the perfect choice for your new business premises, and Heaters Wholesale can provide a system to match your budget and requirements.

Radiant Heating versus Warm Air Heating

Wednesday, January 18th, 2012

Maintaining a consistent temperature within your commercial property or industrial unit is essential to ensure maximum productivity from your team, and to enable you to enjoy a comfortable working environment. It can be difficult to know which heating system is best, which is why the experts here at Heaters Wholesale have put together the following fact sheet to help you to understand the benefits of investing in either radiant heating or warm air heating.

Radiant Heating

Radiant heating is a simple yet effective way to heat a commercial property Milton Keynes of any size. Instead of heating the air, radiant heating creates a series of secondary heaters by heating the flooring, objects and people within a room. This means that a consistently comfortable temperature can be maintained, even when the doors to your factory or industrial unit are being opened frequently.

Heaters Wholesale can provide standard u/tube systems, linear tube systems, or a continuous tube system, so whatever your budget or requirements, you are sure to find what you are looking for. If you already have a reliable air conditioning system to use during the summer at your property, then radiant heating is the best way to create a comfortable office during the winter.

Warm Air Heating

When you are looking for a system which combines the high-quality heating you require with the refreshing benefits of air conditioning, look no further than warm air heating. These systems are an ideal investment when you are looking to modernise the heating system at your property. Their great efficiency means it is easy to recoup your initial investment with the savings you will make on energy bills, with some systems helping to save as much as 20% more energy than a conventional unit.

Choose from a forced air system which can help you to control and monitor air quality, or natural ventilation which is a low-energy way to enjoy a consistently comfortable commercial or industrial space.

Whether you think radiant heating or warm air heating would be best for your budget and requirements, Heaters Wholesale can provide the reliable system you are looking for.

Hydronic Radiant Heating Systems

Wednesday, November 2nd, 2011

As the days grow colder, you may begin to notice that the heating system at your industrial or commercial property just isn’t working as it should. If outdated heaters are making your space too cold to work in, then it may be time to invest in a new system. Instead of replacing your old technology with conventional heaters, why not invest in hydronic radiant heating from the specialists at Heaters Wholesale?

Read on below as Heaters Wholesale explore hydronic radiant heating, and explain the benefits of choosing this innovative heating system for your commercial property.

Radiant Heating

The sun heats the earth throughout the day, which in turn reflects heat back onto us. This is a very large-scale example of radiant heating.

Radiant heating does not heat the air itself, but the flooring and objects within a room. In turn, these act as secondary heaters which store and emit heat. These warmed surfaces then raise the temperature of your environment.

If you are working in an industrial space where the doors are opening frequently, then a radiant system can also help. The heat has already been stored in the secondary heaters, so even when the space is open to the cold air from outside, a comfortable level of heat can be maintained.

Hydronic Heating

Hydronic radiant heating is a liquid-based system which requires little electricity to run. This is ideal if your building or commercial property Leicester is not connected to the National Grid. It also makes a great alternative heating system for companies whose budget is being stretched by rising heating costs. Avoid high electricity prices by investing in a hydronic radiant heating system which can be powered by a range of sources, including conventional gas or oil fired boilers, wood fired boilers, solar water heaters, or a combination of these.

Hydronic radiant heating is one of the most efficient ways to heat your building, and upgrading to a modern system will mean you won’t have to worry about costly repairs. When you are considering updating your heating system to enjoy a warmer winter at work, contact Heaters Wholesale.

Radiant Heating Solutions

Wednesday, October 26th, 2011

With the sky still dark, the street lights still on and a frost nestling on your car windscreen it’s understandable that you won’t want to get out of your warm toasty bed and head to your cold workplace. Unfortunately needs must; but our team here at Heaters Wholesale can make your workplace seem more appealing and warmer by providing you with a radiant heating solution, which provides all the heat you’ll require to work in a comfortable and pleasant atmosphere.

Unlike other heating options, radiant heating doesn’t just pump hot air into the room, which quickly rises and doesn’t make any difference to the temperature. Instead, the heating solution acts in a similar way as to a blanket by heating everything within the room, from the occupants to inanimate objects and the floor.

By heating the room in this manner, radiant heating allows the heat to stay in the room for longer, whilst also helping the room to heat up quickly. As such, radiant heating provides the best heating solution for factory environments, office blocks and any industrial building where there is a heavy foot flow of people coming in and out of the building throughout the day, resulting in doors continuously being open and closed.

As heating specialists, our team here at Heaters Wholesale are able to provide our customers with a range of radiant heating solutions all of which are cost effective and also space saving. Some examples of the radiant heating systems that we have available include low intensity unitary radiant heaters and continuous low intensity radiant heaters.

This winter, with the range of affordable radiant heating solutions available through our team here at Heaters Wholesale there is no reason for your workplace to be cold. For more information and advice about our heating systems and which is best for your environment, don’t hesitate to contact our team by calling one of the numbers on our website.

Radiant Ceiling Heating

Monday, September 5th, 2011

As the last of the heat waves we’ve experienced over the spring and summer months seems to have finally gone, and the winter weather ready to take a hold, it’s understandable that you’ll be looking to provide your factory with the best heating solution available; which is where radiant heating provided and installed by our team here at Heaters Wholesale can assist.

Finding the perfect factory heating was previously a difficult task, due to various doors being opened and closed throughout the day as stock/equipment was transported to and from the factory or from different areas, meaning that the cold air always had a chance to enter. However, with radiant heating this no longer has to be an issue.

Unlike other heating solutions available, a radiant heating system doesn’t just pump hot air into the atmosphere and allow it to float around. Instead, this particular system heats various objects within the area it’s installed; in the same way the sun heats your patio and decking Solihull during the summer months, providing your factory with an even distribution of heat when required.

Here at Heaters Wholesale our experienced and qualified team are able to supply and install a wide range of radiant heating systems, ensuring that you find the best heating system for your property. Whilst we stock a wide range of radiant heating systems, they all provide a similar range of benefits, including being easy to install, cost efficient, suitable to be used with either natural gas or LPG, and come with a range of burner inputs and tube lengths, allowing design flexibility to suit your business needs.

If you want to ensure that come the cold winter weather, you, your staff and your property are adequately heated, even when doors are being opened and closed, then contact our team here at Heaters Wholesale today, and invest in our fantastic range of radiant heating tomorrow.

Gas Radiant Heating for Industrial Environments

Wednesday, August 24th, 2011

To be successful, your business needs to be productive throughout the year and whatever the weather. Don’t let the cold adversely affect your company; invest in a professional gas radiant heating system from Heaters Wholesale to keep your employees warm and your business moving. Our industrial heating solutions can make a big difference when the cold weather draws in, and will be sure to keep your workforce happy.

Reliable equipment can make the difference between success and failure in business, from your computer system to your new generators. With Heaters Wholesale you can rest assured that you will always receive the best products at the best prices.

There are many benefits to installing radiant heating at your premises, and in an industrial environment, radiant heating is a more practical option than a warm air heating system. Radiant heating heats the people and flooring in the room instead of the air. The objects in a room act as secondary heaters, storing the warmth and raising the air temperature to ensure that your space remains consistently heated throughout the day.

Another advantage of radiant industrial heating is that unlike a warm air system which can result in heat loss when doors are opened, with radiant heating the floor and objects in the room store the heat and quickly restore the room to a comfortable temperature. This means that even if the doors in your factory are being opened regularly, a steady level of heat will remain within your building.

Working closely with our supplier we are able to offer you a variety of radiant heaters which are suited to a range of environments. There are radiant heating solutions for both indoor and outdoor uses, so whether your staff are working inside or out they will never have to suffer the effects of a cold and uncomfortable workplace.

Here at Heaters Wholesale our experienced team of professionals are familiar with the latest product developments, meaning that you will always receive a reliable and up to date service. Contact us today for a radiant heating system that will make this winter a cosy one for you and your employees.

Radiant Heating Uses

Wednesday, August 17th, 2011

Radiant heating is a very popular heating solution for many businesses, and it’s not surprising in the least when you discover first-hand the benefits which accompanies such an investment. As professional suppliers of various heating systems, the experienced team here at Heaters Wholesale have the expertise to be able to guide you through the numerous uses that radiant heating is typically used for.

Radiant heating is frequently used in well ventilated factories and more often than not, in your standard industrial building. The reason for this lies in the way which radiant heating works. The best way to describe how this particular heating unit functions is by drawing a direct comparison with the sun. Similar to the sun, which heats the earth using energy rays – so does radiant heating. Rather than heating the air which can be moved around, radiant heating will heat the objects in a room instead.

This makes it ideal for well ventilated buildings and it is considerably more energy efficient. With traditional forced air heaters which warm the air, the air will be lost in the free flowing movement. A radiant heater will heat the occupants and the objects in a room, which actively heats up the surrounding area. As such, you will commonly see a radiant heater in your local beer garden, garden centre or when eating alfresco at your favourite restaurant.

Understandably, you want to source a heating unit which heats up your working environment whilst remaining efficient. As specialists in the heating industry, the team at Heaters Wholesale have the industry expertise to be able to advise you on the innumerable heating solutions available.

If you would like further assistance from the specialist team of engineers here at Heaters Wholesale feel free to get in touch with us at your earliest convenience. With our expertise, we will be able to offer invaluable industry advice on the various heating applications available including radiant heating. If you want to speak to a knowledgeable and highly skilled engineer, phone us today on 0208 694 9515.

The Thermodynamics Of Radiant Heating

Friday, July 15th, 2011

Radiant heating is a common heating system which is used throughout factories, industrial buildings and commercial warehouses where heat is needed to warm the occupants of the building. Yet the thermodynamics of how it works is often overlooked or disregarded as unimportant. Here at Heaters Wholesale, our experience in the heating industry has meant that we appreciate how all heating units work, giving us a firm understanding of how radiant heating systems will perform and the most suitable environments to implement them within.

By discovering how a radiant heating system works, you can identify if the system will meet your requirements or not.

The Science

When heat is transferred by radiation, the heated waves of energy will travel from one object to another through the atmosphere. This means that when the heated energy comes into contact with an object (human or material), it will heat it up, making the object itself act as a secondary heater to gradually raise the temperature of the room.

Locations which Radiant Heating is Suitable For

Due to the method the radiant heating system uses, it is very useful for buildings which have large open spaces and a lot of natural ventilation. Typically, this type of heating unit is seen in factories, warehouses and industrial building environments, where the shop doors are opened on a regular basis.

The vast amount of natural ventilation which these buildings are subjected to means that the occupants and machinery are often left exposed. The radiant heating system works by heating the object, therefore the occupant and machinery will remain warm regardless of whether the doors are open or not.

If you are interested in radiant heating for your premises, then please feel free to contact the team at Heaters Wholesale. We are always happy to help, and our expertise enables us to offer invaluable advice to those who seek it. Contact us today on 0208 694 9515.

However, it’s also at this time of year that many factories, leisure centres and large open spaces should look to prepare for the winter months, by ensuring they have a heating system in place which is capable of heating the large area on offer.

Is Radiant Heating Safe?

Thursday, April 21st, 2011

As summer fast approaches many of us will be looking forward to the week or two that we have away, basking in the sun, whilst the children enjoy the freedom they’re given to play and enjoy the beach. The sensation of the sun shining down on us and giving us the opportunity to enjoy the great outdoors is something many will look forward to all year round. Imagine having that level of comfortable heat available within your property throughout the winter months? Thanks to the quality radiant heating which we here at Heaters Wholesale can both supply and install, you can.

For a number of years our team have been providing excellent heating products to a range of domestic and commercial customers, ensuring that during the cold winter months their premises are adequately heated in an energy efficient way.

Not only are we able to supply you with quality products and install them to ensure that they’re working to their best ability; but through the knowledge we’ve picked up within the industry we’re also able to offer you expert advice about each of the systems we install – to dispel some of the myths.

Myth:

Radiant heating relies on ultraviolet radiation.

Fact:

Despite its name, this form of heating has nothing to do with ultraviolet radiation, it doesn’t produce UV rays and nor does it have any link to atomic radiation.

Myth:

Gas heating and other forms of heating are safer.

Fact:

Despite their popularity, other forms of heating aren’t as  safe as radiant heating. It’s widely accepted that because radiant heating doesn’t rely on any fuels or naked flames, it is in-fact one of the safest forms of heating available for homes and business.

Another factor which makes radiant heating a safer alternative to other forms of heating is that there are no moving parts which can cause damage or become broken. This also saves you money in terms of maintenance and repairs. For more information surrounding the heating systems we supply, please contact us via our online enquiry form.
