What to consider in a commercial heating system?

When deciding on the right commercial heating system for your business, there are a number of factors that you will need to consider before diving into the installation.

Each heating system that Chillaire supplies and installs has benefits when used in different applications, so it is important to think about the purpose, the size of your building, the efficiency of the system and your budget.

Purpose

The first question you need to ask yourself is what are you wanting to achieve? If you are looking to evenly heat a large open space, then an air source heat pump or electric warm air heater may be the choice for you. However, if you are looking for instant heat that is easy to manage and flexible, then you may be better off with an electric infra-red heating system.

Size

The size of your commercial or industrial property can affect how efficiently your heating system works. For larger open plan spaces, a gradual consistent heating system is more cost effective and efficient in delivering even heat throughout a property.

Efficiency

Different heating systems will have different efficiency outputs depending on their application. To find the efficiency ratings of specific systems, get in touch with one of our team here at Chillaire.

Budget

The budget you have in mind may be a deciding factor for your new commercial heating system. Systems with a high installation cost often have the lowest running costs, so it can be more beneficial to pay more upfront to save further down the line.

Air Source Heat PumpsOutside Daikin air conditioning unit

Air source heat pumps are becoming more popular within the commercial and industrial sectors due to their sustainability and energy efficiency. They operate by transferring heat from the outdoor air, allowing you to heat and cool your commercial space.

Air source heat pumps are best suited to larger spaces due to their energy efficiency and low running costs. They are the ideal choice for businesses looking to lower their carbon footprint due to their environmentally friendly design.

Electric Warm Air HeatersWinterwarm Electric warm air heater

Electric warm air heaters are becoming as popular as gas fired air heaters due to their low cost installation and efficient heating. For smaller commercial spaces, a low-cost electric warm air heater is a great choice. Due to only requiring an electrical power supply, they are cheaper to install compared to traditional gas fired heaters. 

From leading brands such as Winterwarm and Powrmatic, Chillaire has vast experience in supplying and installing warm air heaters for commercial or industrial properties.

Electric Infra-Red HeatingTansun Infra-red heating solutions

Electric infra-red heating is the ideal heating solution for smaller spaces which require instant and intermittent heating. These systems tend to work by time-based heating or motion sensor heating, allowing them to only be used when required.

Electric infra-red heating is suitable for a number of applications from outdoor restaurant seating to office blocks. At Chillaire, we use high-quality Tansun quartz infra-red heaters to provide reliable and effective commercial heating.

Gas Fired HeatingPowrmatic gas fired heater

Although a lot of customers are moving away from natural gas heating systems, there are certain applications where a natural gas fired system is the most suitable option. This may be to replace an existing faulty heating system as a short term solution. 

At Chillaire, we not only install leading brands such as Powrmatic, Winterwarm and Combat, but also offer comprehensive servicing and maintenance  for all gas fired heating systems across Coventry and the Midlands.
