Why Infratech?
"Heat at the speed of light"
Smoking bans have been a catalyst for the hospitality industry to give more consideration to the potential of effective use of outdoor areas.
Provision of heating leads to additional revenue through:
- Extended outdoor dining and drinking
- later into the evening when even in summer a chill can descend
- into the Spring and Autumn shoulder seasons
- Keeping smokers comfortable or risk losing them to a more amenable venue
- Making customers more prepared to queue in cold weather.
It is widely known that LPG gas (patio) heaters are extremely harmful to the environment and ineffi cient. Electricity is the effi cient heating option.
Within the electric heater sector medium wave infrared heating is the stand out most effi cient and attractive, especially when compared to the poorer quality halogen (shortwave) option.
Infratech manufacture the best medium wave infrared heaters in the world. - Efficient - Infratech heaters convert over 90% of electricity to heat (LPG gas = 50%, even less in windy conditions).Halogen heater manufacturers claim 90% effi ciency however this figure incorporates a signifi cant amount of light energy as well as heat. Unaffected by wind – radiant energy only absorbed by objects and not wasted heating the air.
- Environment - no CO2 emissions (unlike gas), no ultra-violet (unlike halogen), use of control systems reduces energy consumption.
- Total Control – switch heater bars individually; control any of the heaters through a ‘dimmer’ or zone a complete installation. Use with movement detectors and/or timers. Directional – 120o parabolic reflector.
- Kerb appeal – Not only feels warm but looks warm, the heaters emit a dull orange glow attractive to customers. Halogen heaters emit an intense light which, in the case of the higher power units, can be unpleasant/dangerous to look at.
- Flexible – Cooltouch housing allows mounting close to awnings, walls or ceilings.
- Fast – from cold to full heat in less than 90 seconds.
- Maintenance free – No moving parts, no serviceable parts, no gas cylinder refi lls (or storage). Quartz elements rated to minimum 5,000 hours but performance generally exceeds that. Medium wave elements more robust than short wave.
- Durable – high quality construction – manufactured from high grade stainless steel and special corrosion resistant alloy, outstanding corrosion resistance and all round outdoor performance. Not made in China.
- Experience – Infratech have been world leaders in infrared technology for more than 50 years.
