Eliminate Hassles!

temporary electric heater The electric indoor heater eliminates the hassles of fuel-fired heaters. It requires no fuel. Produces no flames. Needs no late night monitoring, and does not require regular maintenance. If your indoor temperature is 10F....you could use a 15KW, 208V, 3-phase model to heat up to 12,800 CUBIC feet (35' X 35' X 10') of insulated new construction. Normally, this would produce a 60F temperature rise in about 2 hours. Once the desired temperature is reached, the thermostat will cycle the heater on and off to hold the desired comfort level. To achieve this, the 800 CFM fan recirculates and warms the air more and more each time it's drawn through the heater. For best results, use in an enclosed air space with a ceiling height of less than 15 feet.
