Heating halls with warm air blowers or better with infrared?

Warm air blowers are a common heating technology in many halls, especially old ones. Recently, they have experienced a revival in combination with heat pumps, because they represent a comparatively inexpensive and feasible solution where the installation of underfloor heating would be difficult to achieve.
But anyone who only looks at the investment costs is making too short-sighted a decision. This is because the real costs arise from the enormous energy consumption that can be incurred for heating the large and tall buildings.
The heating technology of choice in hall buildings is therefore not hot air, but infrared. Instead of blowing warm air into the hall, which for physical reasons rises upwards under the roof and thus has to fill the entire room volume before it finally gets warm enough in the work area, infrared systems, so-called dark radiators, have the property of only heating the areas that their heat rays hit, just like the sun: the lower area of the hall where people work. This is so efficient that energy consumption is reduced by up to 70 percent. A saving that pays off twice over. Because it has a tremendously positive effect on the environmental AND the cost balance.
