Why Infrared Diesel Heating Is Changing The Way Workshops Stay Warm

Keeping workshops, warehouses and commercial spaces warm during winter can be difficult, especially in open or draughty environments where traditional fan heaters struggle to maintain consistent heat.

Infrared diesel heaters offer a more efficient solution by delivering FAR infrared radiant heat directly to people, machinery and work surfaces instead of heating the surrounding air first. This creates faster, more comfortable warmth while reducing wasted energy.

The Remington IRH14 and IRH22 infrared diesel heaters are designed specifically for industrial and workshop use, combining quiet operation, low emissions and optional ducting capability.

How Infrared Heating Works

Infrared heating works similarly to sunlight, warming objects and people directly rather than circulating hot air around a building.

This Creates Several Key Benefits:

Faster warm up times

Better performance in open spaces

Reduced heat loss through doors and ventilation

More even and comfortable heat

Less airborne dust movement

Improved fuel efficiency

Because the heat is directed where it is needed, infrared heaters are ideal for workshops, warehouses, agricultural sheds, automotive environments and construction sites.

Quiet, Efficient Workshop Heating

One of the biggest advantages of the Remington IRH range is its quiet operation.

Unlike many traditional diesel heaters, the IRH series uses an advanced silencer system integrated into the ceramic furnace, helping maintain a quieter and more comfortable workspace.

This Makes The Heaters Suitable For:

Workshops

Warehouses

Engineering facilities

Event spaces

Agricultural buildings

Optional Flue Ducting

A major feature of the IRH range is the ability to install optional flue ducting.

The flue system allows exhaust gases to be directed outside the workspace while the radiant heat remains indoors. This helps improve indoor air quality and makes the heaters more practical for enclosed or semi-enclosed commercial environments.

The flexible multi-piece flue system can be adapted to suit different workshop layouts and installation requirements.

Cleaner Combustion And Low Emissions

Modern infrared diesel heaters are far cleaner and more efficient than older diesel heating systems.

The Remington IRH range uses advanced combustion technology, catalytic filtering and efficient burner systems to reduce smoke, odours and emissions.

Features such as triple combustion technology, instant oil blocking and residual fuel reduction help create cleaner operation and improved fuel efficiency.

Built For Long Operating Hours

Large capacity fuel tanks allow the heaters to operate for up to 25 hours, making them suitable for full day workshop heating.

Additional Features Include:

Digital thermostat controls

Programmable timers

Delayed cooling systems

Reliable ignition systems

Integrated safety protection

These systems help deliver dependable heating performance in demanding commercial environments.

Choosing Between The IRH14 And IRH22

Both models provide the core benefits of FAR infrared radiant heating, silent operation and low emissions.

A Better Way To Heat Commercial Spaces

Infrared diesel heaters are becoming increasingly popular because they provide fast, efficient warmth exactly where it is needed.

By combining radiant heat technology, quiet operation, low emissions and optional flue ducting, the Remington IRH range offers an effective heating solution for workshops, warehouses and industrial spaces.

For businesses wanting cleaner, quieter and more efficient winter heating, infrared diesel technology is a practical long-term investment.
