About Air Heaters

Air heaters are used to heat air with forced convection, radiant heat, or resistive heating elements. Forced convection moves air past a heat source with a fan or blower. Radiant heaters radiate heat from coils that contain a heated, circulated media such as oil, hot water, waste oil, or steam. Resistance air heaters consist of sheaths that surround a resistive heating element. The functional use of these tubular heaters is limited only by available space, maximum sheath temperature, and watt density. Air heaters use a variety of power sources, including electricity, fuel oil, diesel, gasoline, kerosene, natural gas, and propane. Solar heaters and devices that burn wood products are also available. Air heaters with fins provide improved heat dissipation.
