The right heating system in industrial spaces is the basis for work comfort, operational efficiency and cost optimisation. Industrial heater Krakow is ideal for heating production halls, warehouses, workshops and other large spaces. Which solution to choose - oil-fired industrial heater or perhaps an electric heating system? In this article, we'll take a closer look at the differences between the available technologies and give you tips on how to choose the right unit for your business.
Industrial heater is a device that quickly raises the temperature in large spaces. Depending on the type, heat can be generated by burning fuel oil or using electricity.
Modern oil heaters - such as the EMLO devices - are equipped with a number of solutions which enable safe operation in enclosed spaces even without an additional exhaust or flue gas extraction system. The flue gas afterburning system firstly increases the device's efficiency and secondly, ensures that the device generates only trace, harmless amounts of combustion products.
There are two main types of heaters:
Oil-fired heaters - use liquid fuel, usually fuel oil or diesel, to produce heat. They are efficient and economical. They also have the advantage of being able to strictly control heating expenses. An oil-fired heater burns fuel which is replenished on an ongoing basis, so you will not be surprised by the electricity bill you receive after the heating season.
Electric heaters - Ideal for small, tight spaces. However, they require access to adequate electrical power, which can increase running costs.
Industrial heating systems should be selected to ensure maximum efficiency with the lowest possible operating costs.
The choice between industrial oil-fired heater and electricity depends on several key factors, such as the size of the facility, access to an energy source and expected operating costs.
High thermal efficiency - heats large areas quickly.
Independence from the electricity grid - ideal for halls, warehouses and construction sites.
Lower operating costs - Compared to electric heating, heating oil can be a cheaper source of energy.
Mobility - most models are equipped with wheels for easy transport.
Application:
Warehouses and production halls
Construction sites
Car workshops
Agricultural facilities and greenhouses
Electric heater - when is it worth choosing one?
Quiet operation - ideal for spaces where noise is important.
No fuel required - eliminates the need to store fuel oil.
Application:
Shops and service premises
Offices and social areas
Workshops where combustion equipment cannot be used
When choosing industrial heater the key parameter is its heating power, adapted to the volume of the heated building.
Insulation of the building - In well-insulated halls, the demand for heating power will be lower.
Type of activity - If there is production in the hall that requires high temperatures, for example, it is worth considering a more powerful device.
Choosing the optimum power - A heater that is too weak will not heat the space efficiently and one that is too strong will generate unnecessary costs.
Automatic control - use appliances with thermostat function allows precise temperature management, prevents unnecessary energy start-ups and ensures optimum performance.
Regular maintenance - A clean and efficient heater uses less fuel and works more efficiently. It is worth remembering to keep the heater in good working order. Periodically checking the condition, wiping down the casing is the bare minimum.
Choice between oil-fired industrial heater and electricity depends on the specifics of the facility and the available energy sources. Hall heaters should be selected in terms of power, operating costs and conditions of use. Regardless of the choice, it is a good idea to ensure that the rooms in which the heaters are to operate are properly insulated.
