Radiant Tub Heater Install - Keep Your Shop Warm!!

[@catfish542]

This is great I ha d three of these in my commercial shops I rented this is far better

[@ThePlumbingGurus]

Thanks for watching! They’re really good heaters

[@Corey-dy2cq]

Probably pretty efficient too if shop is insulated well. Also, no issues with condensation since off gases are vented outside. Would this be dangerous for a wood shop and sawdust? Thanks!

[@ThePlumbingGurus]

Ya they work great if well insulated. The vent is graded to the outside so if any condensation happens it goes out side. Should be fine for a wood shop but you may want to look into that. I don’t know for sure. Don’t see any issue. Probably better then forced air cause then you’re not blowing all the dust around.

[@Corey-dy2cq]

@@ThePlumbingGurus Exactly. And I'm not a real serious wood shop. Just some occasional stuff but there definitely will be saw dust flying. Maybe if I keep the wood cutting at the opposite end of the shop. Hey thanks for the quick response and keep on plumbin!

[@luthmhor]

It’s fine for that, you just want to make sure your combustion are comes from outside where there is no dust

[@thehoss321]

well done!! I would like to put one in my shop. Any recommendations for a 25' x 25' shop with a 10' ceiling? I'd also like to have hot water too.

[@ThePlumbingGurus]

Hi You might be best with a boiler system.

[@johnbrzenksforearm8295]

I installed a bunch of these in a Diesel Shop. Even being 15 feet above our heads those things put out some heat.

[@ThePlumbingGurus]

Oh ya these things are the best for sure

[@timd5597]

I have 26 x 30 pole barn 12 ft ceiling would tube heater be better placed in the center of the ceiling or would you still mount close to wall?

[@ThePlumbingGurus]

It’s all personal preference. It’s going to heat either way. Whatever works best for you

[@davevallee1183]

I'm located in Airdrie and was just about heading to Atlas Auto to buy a Calcana unit. Would you please reach and give me a price for the install? Gaz line is already roughed in.

[@ThePlumbingGurus]

Hi there, Thank you for reaching out! I’d be happy to help you with the installation of your Calcana unit. Since the gas line is already roughed in, we can provide a more accurate quote. Please send me an email at [e-mail], and I’ll get back to you with the pricing details as soon as possible. Looking forward to hearing from you!

[@georgethegenuis]

24 volt thermostat?

[@ThePlumbingGurus]

You betcha

[@Dooguy]

where can the average guy buy these heaters and install himself?

[@ThePlumbingGurus]

It will depend on where you are. I would just google it and find who sells them. Most plumbing wholesales will sell them.

[@straightshooter8662]

How do you run these without electricity

[@ThePlumbingGurus]

You can’t.
