Heating in corona times
March 5, 2021
Whether in production halls or warehouses, many heating systems currently have a problem: they distribute viruses particularly well in the room. This is counterproductive for many hygiene concepts. But does this mean that heating systems have to stay cold this winter?
This is a question that concerns industry and local authorities. But operators of exhibition, event and sports halls also need answers. A tried and tested and very simple principle plays an important role here: infrared. This heat radiation is evenly distributed to the areas of the room used via ceiling heating systems without generating air movement. And they can be connected to an external fresh air supply system if regular ventilation is not possible.
Incidentally, these infrared heaters also reduce energy costs and lower CO₂ emissions in an environmentally friendly way. Often by half of the previous values. At a large textile machinery company in Mönchengladbach, for example, the reduction was over 65 percent. In buildings with large room volumes, such as halls, this also has a positive effect in terms of CO₂ pricing.

The decision on the Heating Act (Building Energy Act - GEG) has been made, but the questions remain. But there is no need to worry: the legislator has provided for generous transition periods, technological openness and pragmatic, affordable regulations for the gradual move towards climate-neutral heating by 2045. Dr. Jens Findeisen explains what you need to know now when heating commercial and industrial buildings -
In comparison, fan heaters rely on the distribution of warm air. This method causes the air in the hall to rise, with the warmest areas being directly under the ceiling. It therefore takes significantly longer for the work area to warm up, which leads to higher energy consumption. This difference makes infrared heating systems particularly energy-efficient, […] -
Hot air, panel heating or infrared? There are many different heating systems to choose from for heating halls. This article will give you an initial overview of the six most relevant systems. -
What is probably the most effective lever against the gas crisis, price pressure and dependence on Russia at the moment? The answer: consuming less energy. The German government is of this opinion and is calling for energy savings in a large-scale campaign - supported by industry and associations. This goal can be achieved. When it comes to the large halls of industrial and commercial enterprises, it is even easier and quicker than expected.
