SCH-90 Series
Fast. Tough. Efficient.
Don't be left cold by inefficient, undependable construction heaters that employ 50 year old technology. Warm up to Schwank's heavy-duty infrared construction heater, the technological advance from the company that always gives you more heat for your money.
Conventional hot air "salamander type" construction heaters have three drawbacks:
- To contain the heat, every door and window must be closed. That costs time and money.
- Hot air rises, which means it's fine for the ceiling, but not so great for the walls and floor.
- Condensation is produced when the hot moist air produced by the salamander contacts cold walls.
The Schwank Construction Heater in contrast, emits radiant heat in all directions. It warms surfaces, not air. And it can be suspended from the ceiling to free up floor space. That's far better for four important reasons:
- 1. The surface areas of an enclosed room or frozen basement are heated far more quickly. In fact, drying and thawing times can be cut up to 60%!
- Fuel costs are cut sharply, compared to both conventional hot air heaters and competing infrared heaters. That's been confirmed by independent testing involving Toronto builders, which showed that a 90,000 BTU Schwank Construction Heater provides the same amount of heat as a 150,000 BTU hot air heater.
Competing infrared construction heaters can't match the Schwank Construction Heater, mainly because their burner design does not create as good contact of flame with emitter screen, and some of the infrared heat produced by competing brands is blocked by a heavy protection screen. Independent testing showed a 90,000 BTU Schwank Construction Heater produces as much heat as a competing 125,000 BTU infrared heater.
- Working conditions are improved because the room temperature is at a far more comfortable level. For example, the air temperature in a room heated with hot air is usually about 75-85 degrees; with the Schwank Construction Heater, the wall surface temperature is usually 80-85 degrees, but the air temperature is closer to 65 degrees.
- Surfaces are directly warmed and are warmer than room temperature, so there is little or no condensation.
