Electric infrared heaters – efficient & environmentally friendly heating
Use the advantages of electric infrared heaters for your building.
Electric infrared heaters are an effective solution for sustainable and climate-neutral heating. They are characterised by their very good price-performance ratio. As electric infrared heaters are powered 100% by electricity, they do not require any additional work on the building, such as flue gas ducts. Furthermore, electric infrared heaters do not cause any direct emissions and with their robust construction they also require minimal maintenance.
The eSchwank electric infrared heaters are decentralised heating systems. They generate heat exactly where it is needed: In the area where people are staying. Electric heaters work with the infrared principle and are characterised by high efficiencies. Electric radiant heating is rated as 100% renewable.
Hybrid solutions
Optimal industrial heating system von Schwank
However, electric radiant heaters have higher consumption costs than, for example, gas infrared heaters based on the many times higher electricity costs per kWh than gas. In order to optimise consumption costs and for renewable energy shares, it is worth considering hybrid solutions. Hybrid heating systems are defined as a combination of several systems, e.g. electric radiant heating in combination with tube heaters, heat pumps, plaque heaters, warm air heaters or radiant ceiling panels.
Schwank has a large infrared industrial heating product range. An industrial heating system from Schwank is always adapted to the application, installation possibilities and the actual heat requirement. The eSchwank products are divided into 3 categories: they differ in their outputs, sizes and thus suspension heights.
eSchwank is suitable for heating big buildings in industry, commerce, logistics as well as for sports facilities and workshops.

The principle of electric infrared heaters explained simply
The principle of electric heaters
How does an electric infrared heater work?
An electric infrared heater is a device that converts electrical energy into infrared radiation and thus heats objects or people. This creates a balanced microclimate of air and radiant heat that is perceived as very pleasant.
The principle behind every electric infrared heater is simple: The heater converts electrical energy into infrared radiation, which then hits the illuminated surfaces and is converted into heat there. The heat is not transferred through the air but is emitted directly to the objects or people. This means that there is no heat loss.
An electric infrared heater has several advantages over other heating systems, such as:
- It generates a quick and pleasant heat that acts directly on the illuminated surfaces without heating or moving the air. This saves energy and avoids dust turbulence and dry air.
- It is easy to install and operate, as it does not require a complex flue system like a gas radiant heater.
- It is low-maintenance and long-lasting because it has no moving parts. It has a high efficiency, as almost 100% of the electrical energy is converted into heat.
- It is flexible to use as it is available in different sizes and power levels. It can be mounted on the wall and on the ceiling. It can be used either as an additional heater (hybrid system) or as the main heater.

News from Schwank

Schwank, the world leader in industrial heating, cooling and ventilation celebrated its 90th anniversary
In its 90 years of existence, Schwank has transformed itself into a global leader in industrial heating and expert of ventilation and cooling solutions. The company is now focused on energy transformation so hydrogen and electric heating are becoming its primary focus. As of this year, it offers the first 100% hydrogen heater and is pioneer of being a major force in the transition to renewable energie.

Breakthrough: Climate-neutral Heating with Hydrogen Operated Schwank Tube Heaters
For years, the manufacturers of infrared heaters have been advertising the modernity and future viability of their technology. Now the industry, and above all the Schwank company, has set a groundbreaking milestone with the development of its first 100% hydrogen-compatible tube heating system.

Energy Efficiency is Vital for Reaching Net Zero
A post on the EURACTIV website has included a statement by Paula Pinho from the European Commission’s Energy Directorate, which read as follows: “We believe that, first and foremost, we need to continue to apply the energy efficiency first principle, ensuring that really we make the most out of our limited resources.”
