Commercial Garage Heating
Helios – The Most Effective Space Heater Solution
Short-wave Infrared Heating for Garage
Commercial garages and repair centres are tough spaces to keep warm — with large open doors, high ceilings, and wide-open layouts. Our range of Helios short wave infrared heaters provides the perfect solution that delivers instant, targeted warmth directly to workers and work areas.
Unlike traditional heating systems, short-wave infrared heaters generate heat instantly, warming surfaces directly without air movement, making them a safer, cleaner, and more efficient choice for the following applications:
- Automotive service centres and workshops
- Freight and logistics depots
- Bus and truck garages
- Equipment maintenance facilities
- Warehouses with attached loading bays

Using Short-wave Infrared Heaters for Garage
Heating commercial garages such as vehicle service centres, and repair workshops can be challenging, especially in large spaces where doors are constantly opening and closing. Traditional heating systems that rely on hot air circulation are ineffective in these environments — the warm air quickly dissipates into the environment or escapes into ceiling cavities, leaving work areas cold and uncomfortable.
With up to 92% radiant efficiency, Helios short wave infrared heaters provide powerful, targeted heat exactly where it’s needed – the heat form a “heat bubble” that surrounds workstations, operators, and equipment without dispersing through open doors or rising to the ceiling. Because infrared heating warms surfaces and people directly instead of the air, sudden drafts or open entrances do not impact comfort levels. The non-contact nature of short-wave infrared heating also minimises dust circulation, creating a cleaner, healthier environment for staff and sensitive equipment.
Short Wave Infrared Heating Technology
Helios space heaters use short-wave infrared technology to deliver high-intensity and instant warmth. They can concentrate heat only on those areas that need it, allowing the creation of instant comfort zones within a larger space at a lower cost.
Long Life InfraCalor® Elements
All Helios space heaters have InfraCalor® Elements for indoor or outdoor use. These elements provide up to 5000 hours of life behind glass and up to 7,000 hours of life behind a grill. All elements are replaceable, and we hold stock for immediate delivery.
Unique Patented Reflectors
Helios short-wave infrared heaters are designed with a unique patented polished parabolic reflector, allowing maximum coverage with fewer heater units.
All Heaters Are Fully Tested
All outdoor heaters are designed by the leading European manufacturer, Star Progetti. All products have undergone required testing to verify safety and reliability.
Shor-wave Infrared Heating Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
How do short-wave infrared heaters work?
Our heaters emit focused infrared radiation that directly heats objects and people within their range. This quick and efficient heating process ensures that you feel warmth instantly, making them ideal for outdoor and large open indoor spaces.
Short-wave means that there is no need to pre-heat a space and often these heaters are operated with timers or proximity sensors for maximum cost savings. However, to achieve maximum benefit it is necessary to place heaters at workstations rather than trying to heat the total space. This way you can cut heating costs dramatically because unheated areas will be much cooler.
How easy is it to install and operate short-wave infrared heaters?
What maintenance is required for short-wave infrared drying systems?
What and how many heaters do I need?
The quantity of the heater you need depends on project dimensions, insulation quality, and specific heating requirements. We offer energy-efficient short wave infrared heaters in various wattages and coverage areas.
