Temporary heat units or temporary heaters are important for maintaining the comfort level in homes, offices (both outdoor and indoor). Temporary heat units or heaters allow temperature-critical work to continue on schedule, since extreme cold temperature prevents the human body from working effectively, and help you live in a comfortable atmosphere.



Temporary heaters are available for private home use, indoor office use, as well as outdoor use… camps, tents, etc. Temporary heaters can be fired either directly or indirectly by Liquefied Petroleum Gas, Natural Gas, Liquid Fuels, Solid fuels etc. Liquefied Petroleum Gas is the most workable and safe fuel and hence is the most popular fuel for temporary heat units. Solid fuels, on the contrary, are considered suitable for few areas, and are hence not advisable for uses other than those they are intended. The most apparent disadvantage of solid fuel fired temporary heaters is mainly due to the unstable characteristics of solid fuel, for which, these types of temporary heaters can be used only in open spaces. Federal laws and legislations states that solid fuel powered temporary heat units should not be used within 25 feet of any building.
