The "Equator" gas fired radiant patio heater is available in Propane or Natural gas and can be wall mounted or post mounted.
The new attractive Equator hi intensity infra-red heater will increase the use and enjoyment of outdoor areas. The warm and red glow of radiant heat attracts people to the outdoor area on cool days and evenings, times when the patio might otherwise be empty. The streamlined design blends in well with most any decor. Equator heaters are easily mounted on outdoor walls, under ceilings and on posts under awnings.
The Equator heaters are effective in heating outdoor spaces because they utilize infrared or radiant heat. Infrared energy is the same type of energy we get from the sun. Infrared energy warms people and objects without heating the intervening air. Unlike the sun, "The Equator" heaters do not produce Ultraviolet (UV) rays that can be harmful. Infrared energy travels by line-of-sight so the designer must be aware that doors, panels or windows may obstruct the infrared energy from reaching the desired location. Overlapping infrared patterns from numerous heaters may be used effectively to provide even heat distribution. Because infrared heaters heat people and objects, and thermostats measure air temperature, a thermostat may not be the best method for controlling outdoor heaters. Where multiple heaters are used, it is suggested that they be switched independently, so as to allow for flexibility in heating larger areas as the space becomes more occupied. A timer is a good method to ensure that all heaters are turned off when the patio is not being used.
