Understand the features of indirect diesel heaters, such as their fuel efficiency and low emissions

Indirect diesel heaters have gained popularity in recent years due to their fuel efficiency and low emissions. These heaters use biodiesel, which is a renewable fuel source that makes them more sustainable and eco-friendly than traditional heaters.

They are widely recognised as being amongst the UK’s most popular indirect oil fired heaters for use in smaller marquees, temporary structures, construction, the horticultural and agricultural sectors (for the heating of glasshouses, poly-tunnels and grain drying applications) and are also very popular with the tool hire industry.

With their low emissions, indirect diesel heaters are a great option for those looking to reduce their environmental impact while enjoying the benefits of a powerful heating system. Whether you’re looking to heat a large warehouse event, a marquee or a small garage, these heaters offer a reliable solution that won’t break the bank.

Our largest heater, the Ec55, has an output of 51 kW (175,000 BTU/hr) and has a 65 litre fuel tank (sufficient for 12 hrs continuous use). So why not consider an indirect diesel heater for your next heating project? You’ll be doing your part for the environment while enjoying a comfortable and efficient heating experience.

Establish the right size heater to fit your needs – consider factors like available space and number of people attending the event

Are you planning an event this winter? Keeping warm is of utmost importance, especially if the event’s outdoors. One way to ensure your guests are comfortable is by choosing the right marquee size for the number of people attending.

It’s essential to have enough room for everyone to move around comfortably. But not too much. Most importantly, think about heating that space and how you can keep the marquee warm. Winter marquees can be tricky, but with the right planning and execution, you can have a fantastic event whilst keeping your guests cozy and comfortable.

We offer 3 sizes of heater, the smallest is the Ec22. Our popular mid-size is the Ec32 heater with an output of 29 kW (99,000 BTU/hr) and has a 42 litre fuel tank (sufficient for 12 hrs continuous use). Our largest heater, the Ec55, has an output of 51 kW (175,000 BTU/hr) and has a 65 litre fuel tank (sufficient for 12 hrs continuous use).

Position the heater in a well-ventilated area for maximum safety and comfort

When it comes to heating your event, safety and comfort are the top priorities. That’s why an indirect diesel heater, or indirect space heater, is an excellent choice. But simply having the heater isn’t enough. It’s crucial to position it in a well-ventilated area.

This ensures any potential emissions are dispersed, keeping air quality in the space at a healthy level. Luckily, with a diesel space heater that produces low emissions, you can rest easy knowing you’re not only keeping yourself warm but also helping to keep the environment safe and clean. So, whether it’s used in a marquee, garage or workshop, make sure your heater sits in a well-ventilated area for your ultimate peace of mind.

Consider additional accessories that could optimize the efficiency of the heater, such as temperature control devices or remote control systems

Indirect diesel heaters are becoming increasingly popular as an effective solution for heating large spaces. However, if you want to maximise the heater’s efficiency it’s worth considering investing in additional accessories. Temperature control devices will enable you to fine-tune the heat output to ensure you are only using the energy you need, while remote control systems allow you to adjust the temperature without even leaving your chair.

These features are particularly useful if you are using the heater in a commercial setting where you need to maintain a consistent temperature. With many indirect space heaters being low emission, not only will these accessories save on your energy costs, but they are also environmentally friendly. So, next time you’re hiring a diesel space heater, keep in mind the added benefits of optimising it with temperature control and remote control accessories.
