Factories are areas where heat loss is intense due to their structure. Therefore, heating costs are an important parameter for factories. Factories that want to reduce production costs turn to the most economical factory heating systems. So, which is the most economical factory heating system? First, let’s start with how factories are heated.
How to Heat a Factory?
Factories are generally large buildings with high ceilings. Therefore, they have a large volume. In addition, heat loss occurs in production areas, primarily from the ceiling of the factory, as well as from side surfaces and open logistics doors. It is very difficult to heat a large-volume building where heat loss occurs intensively with systems that directly heat the air, because the heated air rises in such heating systems. In places with high heights such as factories, it is not possible to prevent the increase in energy costs with systems that directly heat the air. It is necessary to plan the heating of such large volumes correctly. Because if the wrong planning is made, high energy costs are inevitable.
In order to achieve high savings in factory heating, heating systems are designed using radiant heaters. The most economical factory heating systems are tubular radiant and ceramic plate radiant heaters. The most important reason for this is the radiant heating principle. Radiant heating systems, instead of directly heating the air with the principle that the sun heats our world, heat the ground and objects and work in a way that the air is heated indirectly. In other words, heating starts from the ground and the heated air does not rise. Thanks to the radiant heater, instead of heating the high-volume spaces in the factory, objects and people are heated directly. In this way, high savings are achieved.
How to Save Money on Factory Heating?
Energy is a cost item that is of great importance in terms of reducing the production costs of factories. Reducing the energy spent while heating large areas in the factory provides great savings. The way to save money in factory heating is to design a correct heating system. Industrial heating systems are systems designed to heat large volume areas such as factories in the most accurate way. You can achieve high savings in factory heating with Çukurova Isı’s tubular radiant heaters and ceramic plate radiant heaters.
Tubular radiant heater and ceramic plate radiant heater systems, when placed correctly after the factory survey and project, provide high savings in all necessary areas. In addition, in periods when certain parts of the factory are not working, in cases such as when only a certain section of the factory where general heating is performed continues to work, you can turn off the heaters in the relevant sections, i.e. perform local heating, and achieve higher savings. While general heating can be performed with tubular radiant heater and ceramic radiant heater systems, the system can also be designed and used for local heating purposes only. If there is a need for heating only in certain areas, instead of heating the entire volume, only the required areas can be heated with the radiant heating principle, and thus high savings are achieved. It is not possible to perform regional heating with systems that directly heat the air.
