INFRARED RADIANT HEATERS • SERVICE • REPAIR • INSTALLATION • REPLACEMENT
Infrared radiant heater service, repair & installation.
DAVESDUCTS services, diagnoses, repairs, replaces and installs applicable gas-fired infrared radiant heaters for residential garages and workshops, commercial buildings and industrial facilities throughout Toronto and the GTA.
SERVICE & REPAIR
Already have an infrared heater? We can service and repair it.
A heater that will not start, shuts down, fails to maintain temperature or is operating abnormally does not automatically need replacement. DAVESDUCTS can diagnose applicable radiant-heater problems and determine whether repair, correction or replacement is appropriate.
Will Not Start
Diagnose applicable ignition, control, electrical, gas-supply and safety-circuit issues.
Starts Then Shuts Down
Investigate intermittent operation, ignition proving, controls and other applicable operating faults.
Ignition Problems
Inspect applicable ignition components and determine whether cleaning, adjustment or component repair is required.
Burner / Combustion Concerns
Investigate abnormal burner operation and other combustion-related concerns within the service scope.
Controls & Thermostats
Diagnose applicable thermostats, control wiring and heater control components.
Repair vs Replacement
Where equipment condition, parts availability or installation deficiencies make repair impractical, we can review replacement options.
BEFORE THE SERVICE CALL
Send us the manufacturer, model number and photos.
A clear photo of the rating plate, heater, burner/control assembly and a description of the symptoms can help us identify the equipment and prepare for the service visit.
HOW RADIANT HEATING WORKS
Heat the occupied zone instead of relying only on heated air.
Infrared radiant heaters transfer energy toward floors, people, equipment and other surfaces in their coverage area. Those surfaces warm and subsequently transfer heat to the surrounding space. This can make radiant heating particularly useful in high-bay buildings, garages, workshops and areas affected by frequent door openings.
Targeted Heating
Radiant energy can be directed toward the occupied or working area rather than depending entirely on warm-air circulation.
High-Ceiling Applications
Radiant systems can be well suited to buildings where conventional warm air tends to stratify above the occupied zone.
Open-Door Recovery
Because building surfaces retain heat, radiant applications can perform differently from systems that depend primarily on maintaining a large volume of warm air.
RESIDENTIAL
Radiant heat for garages, workshops and appropriate specialty spaces.
Low-intensity radiant tube heaters can be a practical option where the application, mounting height, clearances, ventilation, gas supply and building construction support their use.
Garages
New installations, replacement and service for applicable residential garage radiant heaters.
Workshops
Heating solutions for workshops where targeted radiant heat suits the way the space is occupied.
Existing Equipment
Diagnosis and repair of applicable existing radiant heaters rather than assuming a new unit is required.
COMMERCIAL & INDUSTRIAL
Radiant heating for larger and harder-to-heat spaces.
Infrared tube heating is commonly considered for applications where ceiling height, large floor areas, overhead doors or localized occupied zones make conventional heating more challenging.
Warehouses & Distribution
Heating for applicable high-bay storage and distribution spaces.
Shops & Service Bays
Radiant heating for applicable automotive, trade and service environments with frequent overhead-door operation.
Industrial Facilities
New installation, replacement and service for applicable industrial radiant-heating applications.
Loading Areas
Targeted heating strategies for appropriate loading, shipping and receiving areas.
Arenas & Large Spaces
Radiant applications can be evaluated for appropriate large-volume buildings and occupied zones.
Equipment Replacement
Review existing heater layout, gas supply, venting and application requirements when aging equipment needs replacement.
INSTALLATION MATTERS
Radiant heaters must be selected and positioned for the actual space.
Capacity alone does not determine a successful installation. Mounting height, heater length, radiant coverage, clearances, combustible materials, gas piping, venting or combustion-air requirements, controls and manufacturer instructions all matter.
Clearances
Required clearances depend on the exact heater, orientation and installation. Storage, vehicles, lifts, doors and other building contents need to be considered.
Gas Supply
The heater input must be considered with the existing gas distribution and other connected equipment.
Venting / Combustion Air
Requirements vary by heater and application and should follow the approved documentation for the exact equipment.
Mounting & Coverage
Heater placement affects the radiant pattern and the areas receiving useful heat.
Controls
Thermostat and control strategy should suit the heater configuration and how the building is used.
Service Access
Burners, controls and serviceable components should remain reasonably accessible after installation.
GAS PIPING & METER COORDINATION
Adding radiant heaters can materially change the building’s gas load.
A multi-heater commercial or industrial project can require significant gas distribution. DAVESDUCTS can incorporate gas piping into the project and coordinate applicable meter/service requirements where the connected load changes.
Gas Distribution
New mains, branches and applicable manifolds can be planned around the radiant-heater layout and other gas-fired equipment.
Meter Coordination
DAVESDUCTS can coordinate applicable gas-meter/service requirements. Final utility requirements, approvals, scheduling and utility-owned work remain under the applicable gas utility.
BRANDS & EXISTING EQUIPMENT
New equipment and service for existing radiant-heating systems.
The DAVESDUCTS site currently features Brant Radiant Heaters and Easy Radiant Works equipment. For repair work, send us the manufacturer and model of the existing heater so we can determine the appropriate service path and parts requirements.
