What is Quartz Element in Infratech heating?

Infrared Heating and the Quartz Element

Infratech heaters are crafted from recycled materials and do not produce any greenhouse gas emissions or unpleasant odors. They operate using infrared or radiant energy, which is the most efficient way to add warmth to spaces such as patios, enclosed areas, or any indoor or outdoor setting where heated air cannot easily be circulated or retained.

A heated quartz element emits a safe, clean wavelength of light that is absorbed by solid objects. This process enables the direct transfer of heat to people or objects rather than warming the surrounding air. As a result, Infratech heaters distribute warmth evenly, ensuring your heat won’t just "disappear" in windy conditions. Infratech medium wave quartz element heaters emit a subtle, pleasant glow that won’t disrupt the ambiance of your gatherings—unlike competitive short-wave or halogen electric heaters, which create harsh glare or overly bright light.

Comfortable Heat for All Your Guests

When it comes to maintaining the aesthetic appeal of your decor and creating a cozy atmosphere, Infratech infrared quartz elements are always the best option. Infratech quartz elements provide comfortable medium wave heat. Competing products featuring short wave halogen elements generate more intense heat but also emit extremely bright and glaring light. Conversely, Infratech medium wave elements efficiently warm your space while offering a soft, warm glow that’s virtually unnoticeable.

How Long Will It Last?

How long can I expect an Infratech quartz element to last? Infratech elements are rated for 5,000 hours of continuous use. In many setups, you may enjoy your heater for years before needing a replacement. Always consult the W-Series manual for specific instructions, and make sure to disconnect the power to your heater before attempting to replace an element. Are quartz elements superior to “short wave” halogen elements?

What Does It Look Like?

If you’re worried about maintaining a certain ambiance, preserving the aesthetic appeal of your decor, and fostering a more relaxed environment, Infratech infrared quartz elements are undoubtedly the best choice. Infratech quartz elements deliver comfortable medium wave heat. Competitors’ products with short wave halogen elements provide more intense heat while emitting excessively bright and harsh light. On the other hand, Infratech medium wave elements effectively warm your area while providing a gentle, warm glow that blends seamlessly into the background.
