If you are looking for an infrared heater with minimal to zero light output, then Radtec is the perfect choice to compliment your space. The two-step buying guide below will help you determine which model is right for you

Step 1: Analyze Your Space

The first step you want to consider in selecting the proper model is to take into consideration where you will be mounting your heaters. Is the space indoors? Is it outdoors? If it’s outdoors, will the heater be protected from rain exposure? Each Radtec heater has an IPX rating the higher the IPX number, the higher the “waterproof” rating it has. See below for a side-by-side comparison of each model.

Step 2: Determine Coverage Area

Once you have identified which model you like based on your installation location, now consider the heat coverage of each model. Long wave and medium wave heaters use infrared technology to heat people and objects, not the air. When looking at your space you need to determine if you want to heat the entire space or just a portion within the space. Also, you notice the heat coverage will change based on application type. For example, if you have a unit installed indoors protected on all sides, you will have a greater heat coverage compared to a unit that is completely exposed to the elements. See example chart below to help you determine how many units you will need to effectively heat your space.
