What is radiant heating

Radiant heating is an ideal solution for large environments such as warehouses, storage facilities, or workshops. Heat is distributed through radiation, just like the sun's rays, directly warming people, surfaces, and objects, without the need to move large masses of air.

This technology ensures uniform comfort, eliminates drafts and airborne dust, and significantly reduces energy consumption.
It is particularly suitable for spaces with high ceilings or activities requiring thermal stability.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE

How radiant heating works

Thanks to radiant heating, it is possible to heat large industrial environments, warehouses, storage facilities, hangars, railway workshops, and sports facilities without creating heat loss. The emitting surfaces are suspended from the ceiling of the environment to be heated, so as to directly strike the floor, machinery, and people to be heated without dispersion. Depending on the area to be heated, the various heat emitters must be distributed in such a way as to obtain uniform heat flow.

What happens when heat is distributed through radiation?

The first reaction upon entering a room heated with infrared radiation is one of comfort. The heat is perceived as uniform and pleasant, with no cold zones or overheating spots.

KEY BENEFITS

Advantages of radiant heating

LOCALIZED HEAT

Radiant heating provides an immediate sensation of warmth, localized only where and when needed, without dispersion.

VERSATILITY

Suitable for various work environments and sectors, from industry to railway, from aviation to livestock farming.

CLEAN AIR

With radiant heating there is no moving hot air, thus reducing the circulation of dust and allergens.

Energy Savings

With radiant heating there is energy savings of up to 40% lower compared to traditional convection systems.

SILENT

No environmental noise thanks to the use of low-noise components for system installation.

MAINTENANCE

Heating systems are manufactured with top-quality materials in compliance with current regulations and require minimal maintenance.

WARM AIR

What is warm air heating

Warm air heating is the most versatile and rapid solution for bringing large industrial and logistics environments up to temperature. Air is heated through generators, boilers with air heaters, or heat exchangers, and distributed uniformly throughout the space.

This system is particularly effective in contexts characterized by frequent openings of doors or gates, where it is necessary to quickly restore thermal comfort. It combines ease of installation, contained costs, and the ability to adapt to multiple applications.

OPERATING PRINCIPLE

How warm air heating works

Warm air heating works in a direct and immediate way: air is heated through heat generators, boilers with air heaters, or exchangers, and then distributed inside the environment through dedicated ducts or supply vents. This achieves a rapid increase in internal temperature, ideal for warehouses, workshops, greenhouses, or other large spaces where comfort conditions need to be reached quickly.

Thanks to the ability to modulate flow rate and direction, warm air can be distributed uniformly or concentrated in specific areas, optimizing consumption and efficiency.

KEY BENEFITS

Advantages of warm air heating

Rapid heating

The system directly introduces warm air into environments, ensuring immediate comfort even in warehouses and large spaces.

Application flexibility

Suitable for industries, livestock farms, greenhouses, hangars, and workshops, warm air heating integrates easily into different contexts and sectors.

Uniform Distribution

Thanks to fans and ducting, warm air quickly reaches every point in the environment, reducing cold zones and temperature fluctuations.

Reduced Consumption

The ability to heat only the areas actually in use avoids energy waste and optimizes operating costs.

Long-term Reliability

Robust structure and components designed for demanding environments ensure operational continuity and system durability.

Simplified Management

Without intermediate fluids such as water or steam, the system requires less maintenance and ensures immediate start-ups.

SYSTEM COMPARISON

Radiant heating vs warm air heating

SOLUTION A

Radiant

Heat by radiation

Heat is emitted by radiation and directly warms surfaces, people, and objects in the environment, ensuring uniform heat distribution and minimizing thermal dispersion.

Uniform temperature

The temperature is constant and uniform throughout the space, without creating drafts or cold zones. It is a particularly suitable solution for large environments requiring stable and continuous comfort.

Healthy environment

By not moving air, radiant heating does not raise dust or allergens, keeping the environment healthier and more comfortable, especially in spaces frequented by many people.

Energy efficiency

Thanks to its ability to directly heat surfaces, it reduces warm-up times and allows lower energy consumption relative to the heated surface area.

SOLUTION B

Warm air

Heat by convection

Heat is distributed by convection: air is heated and distributed in the environment through generators and diffusers. This way comfort is achieved quickly and in a modular manner.

Fast heating

The system allows large volumes to be heated in short times. The distribution of warm air can be easily adapted to the characteristics of the space through ducting and diffusers.

Air exchange requirement

Air recirculation contributes to continuous renewal, but may involve dust raising. However, with proper filtration, the environment remains comfortable.

Flexibility of use

Thanks to rapid heating, this system is ideal for spaces requiring fast thermal variations or intermittent use, optimizing consumption based on actual needs.

NUBES SUPERVISION SOFTWARE

Remote management of heating systems

Thanks to the custom-designed supervision software, you can remotely optimize the proper operation of radiant heating systems, even from mobile devices.

Through an internet connection, you can easily turn individual units on and off, set temperature set points, and monitor their performance.
Through the graphical interface, it is also possible to access data on consumption and better manage any scheduled maintenance.

FAQ

Radiant heating FAQ

Have questions? Discover answers to the main questions about radiant heating systems.

What is the difference between radiant heating and warm air heating?

Radiant heating distributes heat through radiation, directly warming surfaces, people, and objects, ensuring uniform and stable comfort without drafts. Warm air heating, on the other hand, works by convection: it heats the air which is then distributed in the environment, allowing rapid and modular heating. Both systems are suitable for large environments, but differ in heat distribution method and thermal response.

How is heat distributed in radiant systems and warm air systems?

In radiant systems, heat is transmitted directly from heating elements to surfaces and people through radiation. In warm air systems, air is heated by generators and distributed through ducting and diffusers, creating uniform circulation of warm air inside the environment.

What are the advantages in terms of comfort and air quality for each system?

Radiant heating provides uniform thermal comfort without drafts and with less dust raising, ideal for sensitive and frequented environments. Warm air ensures fast heating and continuous air renewal, useful for dynamic spaces or with high turnover of people and open doors, while requiring adequate filtration to maintain clean air.
