What is short, medium and long wave infrared Heat? How do they differ?
Before we dive deeper into the specifics of infrared heat, let's start with an overview of the three different ways that heat can be transferred:
Conduction - direct contact with the heat source.
Convection - Heat transfer via air or water (eg, a radiator).
Radiation - No transfer medium needed. Travels via invisible waves, like the heat from the sun.
Radiation is exactly what infrared heat lamps use. This makes them ideal for outdoor spaces as the air in the vicinity will sta...
