2. Electric heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electric_heating

   30 kW resistance heating coils This radiant heater uses tungsten halogen lamps. Electric heating is a process in which electrical energy is converted directly to heat energy. Common applications include space heating, cooking, water heating and industrial processes. An electric heater is an electrical device that converts an electric current ...

3. Self-regulating heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Self-regulating_heater

   A positive-temperature-coefficient heating element (PTC heating element), or self-regulating heater, is an electrical resistance heater whose resistance increases significantly with temperature. The name self-regulating heater comes from the tendency of such heating elements to maintain a constant temperature when supplied by a given voltage.

4. Trace heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trace_heating

   Electric heat tracing, heat tape or surface heating, is a system used to maintain or raise the temperature of pipes and vessels using heat tracing cables. Trace heating takes the form of an electrical heating element run in physical contact along the length of a pipe.

5. Radiant heating and cooling - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radiant_heating_and_cooling

   The heat energy is emitted from a warm element, such as a floor, wall or overhead panel, and warms people and other objects in rooms rather than directly heating the air. The internal air temperature for radiant heated buildings may be lower than for a conventionally heated building to achieve the same level of body comfort, when adjusted so ...

6. Tankless water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tankless_water_heating

   Electric point-of-use (POU) tankless water heater, wall-mounted under a sink (Germany) Tankless water heaters can be further divided into two categories according to their heating capability: "full on/full off" versus "modulated". Full on/full off units do not have a variable power output level; the unit is either fully on or completely off ...

7. Ceramic heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ceramic_heater

   A ceramic heater as a consumer product is a space heater that generates heat using a heating element of ceramic with a positive temperature coefficient (PTC). [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ failed verification ] Ceramic heaters are usually portable and typically used for heating a room or small office, and are of similar utility to metal-element fan heaters .
