Infrared Heaters Explained: Energy-Efficient Heating for Commercial Spaces

Infrared comfort heaters provide an efficient, targeted alternative to conventional space heating. By delivering radiant warmth directly to people and surfaces, they perform well in spaces where traditional systems struggle, including:

• Warehouses and loading docks
• Outdoor patios and seating areas
• Healthcare and recovery rooms
• Garages, baggage areas, and high ceilings

Powered by quartz or metal heating elements, infrared systems offer near-instant heat, energy savings, and low maintenance with no moving parts.

EPRI’s research examines their performance, safety, and role in electrification strategies, showing how infrared heaters can improve comfort, reduce energy waste, and support sustainable building operations.
