2. Infrared heater - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Infrared_heater

   Common uses for halogen lamps are table top heaters. [13] [14] Quartz infrared heating elements [15] emit medium wave infrared energy and are particularly effective in systems where rapid heater response is required. Tubular infrared lamps in quartz bulbs produce infrared radiation in wavelengths of 1.5–8 μm.

3. Space heater - Wikipedia

   These heaters are often designed such that the frequency of the emitted waves are in the infrared part of the electromagnetic spectrum. The materials used in radiant heaters can vary. Halogen heaters have tungsten filaments in sealed quartz envelopes, mounted in front of a metal reflector in a plastic case. They operate at a higher temperature ...

   Outdoor radiant heaters allow specific spaces within an outdoor area to be targeted, warming only the people and objects in their path. Radiant heating systems may be gas-fired or use electric infrared heating elements. An example of the overhead radiant heaters are the patio heaters often used with outdoor serving. The top metal disc reflects ...

6. Ceramic heater - Wikipedia
