Commercial Heaters For Warehouses

No one likes to be cold, especially in their workplace. Even machinery is unable to operate in freezing conditions.

By adding supplemental heaters to your warehouse, you can keep equipment running smoothly and ensure the comfort and health of your employees.

Warehouse Heating Calculator

Although there are several aspects to consider, such as foot traffic and wall insulation, there is a general rule of thumb you can use to determine which heater size will be best for what you need.

You need 10 watts of heating power per square foot of the area you are covering.

Example: To heat a 2,340-square foot room, you will need a heater of at least 23.4 KW.
