ABOUT YOUR OUTDOOR RADIANT HEATER RADIANT HEATING PRINCIPLES Radiant heat is widely regarded as the most comfortable, healthiest and most natural form of outdoor heating available. This heating type is based on the same primary source of heat we know - the warmth of the sun. It warms you and the objects around you instead of the air. The warmth felt from the sun is not warm air but infra-red energy.
