infrared heater

Invisible light warmer

An infrared heater warms objects and people directly through radiant energy rather than heating the surrounding air.

Unlike convection heaters that circulate warm air, infrared heaters produce electromagnetic radiation absorbed by surfaces in their path: The infrared heater on the patio kept us warm despite the cold breeze.

Common in outdoor spaces, warehouses, and bathrooms where quick, targeted heat is needed.
