What Is a Radiant Heater and How Does It Work?

A radiant heater directs infrared energy from combustion through reflectors to the target surface. Floors, machinery and people warm up—not the air.

Difference from conventional heating

Classic radiator systems heat the air first, which is inefficient in high-ceiling spaces. With radiant systems heat is felt instantly and comfort returns quickly even when doors open.
