Comfortzone better than Edenpure Heaters save 50% Energy
What is Infrared Energy?
Posted by: Admin in Infrared HeatersHi everyone, we are talking Infrared Heaters again, Why? We think it’s one of the best energy saving and Green conscious products. Especially as we spend so much energy heating our homes and oil, Gas, and electricity are at a record breaking prices. Our brand is Comfortzone Infrared heaters, which compete’s with Edenpure Heaters, we believe Infrared Heaters employ the latest technology. Here is an article from a professor at Creighton University on how Infrared energy works, their website is http://altmed.creighton.edu/sauna/how_it_works.htm : Enjoy!
- What is infrared energy?
- The electromagnetic spectrum is divided into three segments by wavelength, which is measured in microns (1/1,000,000 of a meter).
- 0.76 to 1.5 microns = near infrared
- 1.5 to 5.6 microns = middle infrared
- 5.6 to 1000 microns = far infrared
-
This wavelength of light warms objects without warming the air between the source and the object (known as conversion).
- This radiant heat can also be called Infrared Energy (IR).
- Do not confuse this with UV radiation (sunburn) or atomic radiation (nuclear) - see the diagram above for where these types of light fall on the spectrum.
- Infrared waves are not visible to human eyes but can be seen by special instruments that translate infrared into colors that are visible to our eyes.
- The best example is the sun (80% of the sun’s rays are infrared).
- Our atmosphere allows infrared rays in the 7 to 14 micron range to safely reach the earth’s surface.
- When warmed, the earth radiates infrared rays with its peak output at 10 microns.
- The human body radiates infrared energy out through the skin at 3 to50 microns, with most around 9.4 microns.
