Description
The Herschel Advantage IR range make ideal workshop heaters for commercial and workspace applications. The wall-mounted units are designed for spaces with walls giving adequate clearance from the ground (2.3 – 2.5m) and from the ceiling above (minimum 0.3m). Available in two power outputs of 1300 & 1950 watts and a choice of white elements in a silver body, or black elements in a black body, these heaters produce a comfortable level of heat for a commercial working environment or garage.
Additional benefits include:
- No exhaust emissions so no requirement for planning;
- They operate silently and without fumes – so no health and safety issues;
- Installation is much cheaper than oil or gas alternatives – all you require is electric cable;
- No Safety inspections required for GAS installations;
- No maintenance. You do not have to maintain an infrared heater once installed;
- You can “focus” the heat exactly to where you want it – because there is no convection of heat, none is wasted blowing into areas it is not wanted;
- Far Infrared has been shown to have positive effects on metabolism, being the waveband at which water (80% constituent of skin) most effectively absorbs heat.
Space heating can be used anywhere there is a requirement to heat a large volume and where the heaters themselves can be placed well out of reach. So workplaces like workshops, industrial or commercial units, warehouses etc make ideal locations for heaters of this sort.
The Herschel Advantage IR must be located in a position to allow proper and efficient use but one that ensures hot parts are not touched accidentally. The heating elements reach very high temperatures without visible signs of the unit being on. Because Advantage IR2 & IR3 are not fitted with a protective grill, the heaters are not for domestic or household use. The heaters must not be used or installed in any commercial premises where they can be accidentally touched or where there is a risk of damage to the ceramic elements.
In areas with air movement/wind the heated area may reduce by 1/3 to 1/2. In these areas we recommend mounting at the lowest height and proportionally increasing the number of heaters.
Luigi Ciapparelli –
We have been using several Herschel Infrared heaters for about 10 years or more. They are used for heating animals, old and new. The heaters are reliable, produce ideal type of heat which not only heats but dries everything in our all too often damp Southwest. We recently required replacement brackets for an old model. Kate was fantastic and found the bits needed very quickly. Excellent heaters and excellent after sales service. We and the animals are very grateful and highly recommend Herschel heaters.
Customer Service –
Thanks Luigi. We’re delighted to hear your experience and that both you and your animals are enjoying the heat from our heaters.

These Herschel heaters have proved very effective in the loading bay of the warehouse. Definitely recommend.

“Rather than heat the entire space, much of which is storage or rarely in use for any length of time, we use three heaters to maintain comfort in the main work areas in the studio. The heaters were fast and simple to install, and cost significantly less than a boiler based system. Running costs are predictable and the heat is very natural and comfortable. Because the space heaters focus heat in a defined area, I can heat the area where I’m working rather than the whole space which reduces running costs. I’m also able to keep working when the cold would have slowed me down in the past”. Andrea Spencer, @aspencerglass
