This is a great solution for garages and other enclosed spaces that are potentially dangerous for gas or liquid fuel heaters. I'm considering one for my 2-car attached garage that I'm converting into a home workshop.
I've brainstormed about using infrared heater like this for windmills repairs. You take three 6000W radiant heaters with a heavy-duty casing, a 20kW generator, a pipeline welders tent, two 4' X 8' plywoods with coarse grip tape for the floor a few reflecting tarps, and voilà. This way you have a heating system and an epoxy post-cure system without having to put a heating blanket with a vacuum bag to hold it for the post cure system.
I am planning to use this style of heater in my garage as it's poorly insulated so it's pointless hearing the air but it warms to tools I handle on a cold day.
Great video. Great product. I have a 10x20 sun room uninsulated with glass roof and one side sliding and retractable glass wall. The room is very cold during the cold months. I like to have two of these heaters installed on the wooded side of the room. Where in Canada could I buy them. I live in Brampton, Ontario. I would appreciate if you will kindly forward me the source in Canada, failing which, the name of the company you purchased from. Regards, Mike
This video was a lifesaver for us!! We just installed one on our screen porch in our new house since this spring has turned out cooler than we imagined! My husband has gotten so many amazing projects he can do himself from watching you! Do you have a course or guides I can buy to give as Father's Day gifts to some of his friends and our family?
QQ- so for your installation, they are angled downwards and how the sides don't have the minimum of 18" clearance. Wanted to get your thoughts if i'm missing something, thanks!!
And if I wanted to install them in my garage? Yes? No? My garage is 24X24. It is insulated and sheetrocked. I have half (well, maybe I use a smidge more😁) for my workshop. The other half houses my wife’s car. I’m looking for a cost efficient means to heat it when I’m working in my workshop or, on the vehicles. I do the main duct that goes from my basement furnace to both the first and second floor, in the garage and it’s boxed in and sheet rock covered as well. I thought about jumping into that the a sort of industrial style pipe with vents I can turn off or in with a baffle. Oh, it’s gas furnace with forced hot air. So, is that a better option for me or might a couple of these heaters be better? Hey, I love having a local guy of your talent on RU-vid! Concord Carpenter...I think of a 1770’s carpenter/woodworker! I know, profiling!!🤣🇺🇸👍🏻
Are the gas radiant type heaters similar in safety (carbon monoxide) and efficiency? I've kind of been leaning that way over electric but having a hard time deciphering some of the details.
Rob thanks for the video they are a great idea. One comment nothing to do with the product, I HATE your intro music and the fact that it is so boosted over normal volume. When I watch your videos I cringe at the intro and smash the volume button down, as a result I sometimes miss your opening comments. Thanks Ben
Did you receive the heaters free or at a discounted rate? If your planning on using an outdoor space year round, a four seasons room makes more sense to start with. Proper planning prevents these bad decisions. Radiant heat is a much better choice in the floor.
The screen porch has mylar panels to insert. The porch is built in 2001. Infrared heating is way better in the situation since the floor is an insulated and radiant heat would be ineffective
Nice video. Very informative but clearly a paid advertisement and/or received something in exchange for the endorsement, i.e., discounted units. You should state that or risk losing your credibility.
