Air Curtains & Electric Heating

This category brings together units that deliver heat exactly where it is needed: air curtains for entrances and doors, fan heaters, infrared and radiant heaters as well as convectors and radiators. Thermostats, controllers, valves and brackets complete the range. The supplier is the manufacturer Frico. The sub-categories help you find the right type of unit quickly.

Which type of unit suits your application?

• Air curtains: separate indoor and outdoor air at open doors of shops, workshops or halls, depending on the model without heating, with electric or with water heating coil.
• Fan heaters: heat rooms quickly via an airflow, for example in workshops, plant rooms and storage areas.
• Infrared and radiant heaters: emit radiant heat directly to people and surfaces, even where warm air is hard to retain.
• Infrared heating panels: flat radiant heating for indoor rooms.
• Radiators and convectors: for background heating and frost protection, for example Thermowarm convectors or finned tube heaters.

What matters when choosing

For air curtains, door width, mounting height and heating type determine the choice. For heaters and convectors, the location, protection rating and desired control are what count. You will also find thermostats and controls that adapt running times to actual demand.

Frequently asked questions about air curtains and electric heating

When does an air curtain make sense?

Wherever doors stay open for long periods, for example in retail or at workshop doors. The airflow keeps out draughts and cold while the entrance remains freely accessible.

Radiant heater or fan heater: what is the difference?

Fan heaters warm the room air. Infrared heaters warm people and surfaces directly and are therefore also suitable for individual workstations or outdoor areas.

How can power consumption be limited?

With thermostats, timers or door contacts the units only run when needed. Our guide on cutting energy costs shows further approaches.
