2. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

   An infrared heater or heat lamp is a heating appliance containing a high-temperature emitter that transfers energy to a cooler object through electromagnetic radiation. Depending on the temperature of the emitter, the wavelength of the peak of the infrared radiation ranges from 750 nm to 1 mm.

3. Hydrargyrum medium-arc iodide lamp - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrargyrum_medium-arc...

   The gases in an HMI lamp are under a very small pressure, but it does increase with temperature. As with quartz-halogen bulbs, care should be taken not to touch the glass directly as skin oils left behind on the envelope can heat beyond the working temperature of the envelope and cause bubbling and/or a weak point.

4. Patio heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Patio_heater

   The chimenea is an alternative to the patio heater for home use, which burns wood instead of gas. Some newer types of patio heaters are electrically powered radiative heaters that emit infrared energy onto nearby surfaces, which in turn heat up the surrounding air. Other styles of outdoor patio heaters include:

5. Catalytic heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Catalytic_heater

   The catalytic heater is contained within the package which is usually made out of stainless steel. Instrument gas and pilot preheating regulators are only used for freeze protection, and to heat up the gas before it reaches the pilot. It can also be used to heat a stream of gas that is used for measurement or instrumentation. Space heating is a ...

6. Salamander heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Salamander_heater

   Salamander heaters date back to at least 1915. In the early 1940s, W.L. Scheu of Scheu Manufacturing Company, a producer of temporary portable space heating equipment, developed the modern salamander heater to provide warmth to allow construction crews to work in inclement weather. Sales spread across the US, and by the 1950s, to Europe.

7. Kerosene heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kerosene_heater

   The Japanese non-vented "fan" heater burns kerosene gas and is known as a gasification type heater. The liquid kerosene fuel is pre-heated via an electric heating element to vaporize the fuel. The resulting gas is collected and forced into the burn chamber where it is ignited and burns with a blue flame, similar to propane.
