High Intensity Infrared Heaters

Within the Synergy series, the dual-stage models (such as the 200K BTU quad ceramic burner unit and the 120K–160K BTU triple ceramic burner unit) are the most energy-efficient, since they use ambient-based 2-stage operation with precisely matched air-gas ratios to modulate output based on need. This eliminates excess heat when it isn't required and delivers 30–50% energy savings over conventional heating systems.

Synergy high intensity infrared heaters are gas-fired units that run on either natural gas or propane. They are not electric heaters, so electricity is only used for ignition and controls via 24V or 115V inputs, keeping electrical consumption minimal.

No. All Synergy high intensity infrared heaters operate without direct venting, which significantly reduces roof penetrations and installation complexity. This also allows them to be used in protected outdoor environments such as loading docks, covered terraces, and dealership canopies.

Single stage heaters operate at one fixed output level, providing straightforward and reliable heat delivery. Dual stage heaters modulate between high and low outputs based on ambient temperature, cutting excess heat when it isn't needed and providing faster recovery when temperatures drop, resulting in greater fuel efficiency over time.

The Synergy series spans 30K to 200K BTU across models including 30K–60K, 70K–100K, 90K–100K, 110K–160K, 120K–160K, 175K–200K, and 200K BTU units. This range allows precise sizing for spot heating, zone heating, or full building coverage, and Combustion Research Corporation's specialists can help match a unit to your facility's specific heating needs.

Yes. Because they require no direct venting, Synergy heaters can be used in protected outdoor and semi-outdoor spaces such as restaurant dining decks, hotel terraces, dealership canopies, loading docks, and event venues, in addition to standard indoor commercial and industrial applications.

No. Every Synergy unit is factory pre-wired, pre-piped, and tested before shipping, which minimizes installation time and on-site labor costs. Combined with the lack of direct venting requirements, this makes installation faster and less complex compared to conventional heating systems.
