The Reznor commercial/industrial line of infrared heating
equipment is designed to provide quiet, energy-efficient, com-
fort-level temperatures through application of radiant heat
transfer. Radiant heat transfer means that heated infrared
rays are radiated until those rays are absorbed by objects,
such as floors, equipment, or people. Infrared heat rays do
not warm the air; the air immediately surrounding the “heated”
objects is warmed because of the increase in temperature of
those objects. This makes infrared heating ideal for spot heat-
ing applications such as garage bays, assembly lines, load-
ing docks, parking ramps, airplane hangars, and any other
indoor location where heat is needed in only a specific area.
Since the infrared rays are absorbed by the floor, infrared
heating provides warmer floor-level temperatures. Quieter,
more energy-efficient operation is achieved because infrared
heating equipment does not require fans or blowers. Reznor
provides both low-intensity, tubular radiant heaters and high-
intensity, surface combustion infrared heaters. For more de-
tailed information on the technical applications of heating with
infrared, consult the Infrared Heating Handbook. If unsure of
a particular application, consult your Reznor Sales Repre-
sentatives.
