In the colder months, efficient heating of large spaces becomes a priority for many businesses and institutions in Krakow. Oil-fired heaters, especially those using infrared technology, are the perfect solution for such needs. In this article, we will outline the advantages of infrared oil heaters and discuss where they work best.
Infrared oil heaters are characterised by their ability to distribute heat quickly and evenly. By using infrared radiation, heat is transferred directly to objects and people, minimising the energy losses associated with heating the air. This makes them an ideal solution for heating large spacessuch as workshops, halls or warehouses.
Thanks to advanced combustion technology, oil heaters consume relatively small amounts of fuel. EMLO-branded units, for example, have a burn rate of around 1 litre per hour, which translates into low running costs. In addition, the ability to run on different fuel types, such as biodiesel or diesel, gives users the flexibility to choose the most favourable option. One of the advantages users point out is that they can accurately estimate heating costs 'here and now'. They fill up the fuel at the station and pay for it immediately. They also know how much their heating costs will be in a given month, unlike, for example, in the case of electric heating (e.g. with an air conditioner) when we can only receive the accumulated bills at the end of the billing period. But then we can be unpleasantly surprised 😉 .
Most oil-fired heaters is equipped with castors and ergonomic handles, making it easy to transport and set up anywhere. The simple design and intuitive control panel mean that no specialist knowledge is required to operate these machines. Importantly, modern machines of this type - such as the EMLO heaters are equipped with a WiFi module, enabling the unit to be controlled from a smartphone or tablet. As an option, the supplied remote control can be used
Modern oil heaters are equipped with advanced safety systems, such as a triple afterburning system to reduce harmful emissions. As a result, they can even be used in naturally ventilated rooms without the need for additional flue gas systems. In addition, the appliances are equipped with more than a dozen different safety systems (tilt sensors, lack of fuel, etc.) that further enhance comfort and safety during use.
As main advantages oil-fired heaters can therefore be mentioned:
In areas such as garages or workshops, where there is often a need to quickly reheat the workspace, infrared heaters have proven themselves to be excellent. Their ability to provide instant heat and the fact that they do not raise dust during operation make them ideal for this type of facility. Infrared heaters are particularly popular with owners of autodetailing businesses. We encourage you to take a look at video footage in which Luke of DPH detailing shares his impressions of daily use of the EMLO heater. Heating of the workshop or garage heating can be effective and cheap!
Large warehouse spaces and production halls are often characterised by poor thermal insulation. Industrial heaters infrared heaters, thanks to their high heating power, are able to heat such facilities efficiently, providing comfortable working conditions even on the coldest days. In such situations, however, increased combustion must be taken into account.
In general, however oil heaters is a good solution for maintaining a constant temperature in warehouses where people work. Remember that the minimum temperature is regulated by occupational health and safety legislation and it is the employer's responsibility to ensure that the temperature in the workplace meets standards. Oil-fired heaters are an inexpensive way to address this issue.
Hosting events in marquee halls requires ensuring the right temperature for participants. Infrared oil heaters are often used in this type of facility due to their mobility, efficiency and the ability to quickly raise the temperature inside the tent. In the case of year-round gazebos and marquee halls, an important purchase factor is the mobility of the units, which can be moved to the most convenient location, making it easier to arrange the space.
The heaters do not require an additional exhaust system and can therefore be operated in an enclosed hall or tent with natural ventilation and air circulation only. These types of heaters are also suitable as heating of the café garden as an alternative to the popular gas-fired radiant heaters.
In greenhouses and other agricultural facilities, maintaining the right temperature is crucial for plant growth. Infrared heaters equipped with an automatic control system, can operate in pre-set cycles for 24 hours a day, reheating the greenhouse to a pre-set temperature, which promotes plant growth and minimises energy loss.
The following table shows a comparison oil-fired heaters with other popular methods of heating large spaces:
| Feature | EMLO oil heaters | Electric heaters | Gas heaters |
| Thermal efficiency | High | Average | High |
| Operating costs | Low | High | Medium |
| Warm-up time | Immediate | Quick | Quick |
| Mobility | High | High | Average |
| Security | High | High | Needs to be controlled |
| Use in large spaces | Ideal | Limited | Good |
To sum up, oil heaters are one of the best solutions for heating large spaces, both in the industrial and service sectors. Thanks to their high efficiency, fuel economy and mobility, they are the ideal choice for workshops, production halls, warehouses and temporary facilities such as tent halls.
Investment in infrared heaters not only reduces operating costs, but also increases comfort in difficult winter conditions. When choosing the right model, it is worth paying attention to its heating power, fuel consumption and additional safety features.
If you are looking for an effective way to heat a large space in Krakow, it is worth betting on the modern EMLO oil heaterswhich combine modern technology with economical operation.
