This means that it is more efficient and energy saving because of the effective way the heat is transferred. The emitted heat is not affected by draughts because there is no wasteful heating of the air. The wavelength at which infrared is emitted significantly influences the effectiveness of the heating process. Perfectly matched infrared heaters can allow overall energy savings of up to 50%. Inefficient Gas “Mushroom” Heaters are often less than 50% efficient and emit carbon monoxide and other hazardous gases as a by-product of combustion and burning fuel. By contrast, Alfresco electric outdoor energy-efficient infrared heaters convert over 90% of input energy directly into radiant heat, and operate for just 10pence per hour per KW hour. There is no need to change or store pressurised gas cylinders and no annual servicing is needed. There are no unpleasant odours and with no moving part is virtually maintenance free.
