Previous Heating:
Previously used a 2800W Electrical fan blower.
This has the following disadvantages:
– Cost = Very expensive to run
– Wasted Energy = The heat rises straight up to the warehouse roof
– Fire risk = hot electrical element near cardboard or dust can ignite
– Insurance = A number of insurers will often void the policy if electrical fan heaters are used in the workplace
– Electrics Tripping = The high level of electrical power trips the circuits, affecting the PC’s, label machines, scanning machines… on the same circuit.

Running Cost Comparison:
1x 2800 Watt Blower, uses the same electricity as 11x WarmTronics Heat Mats!
WarmTronics is 91% more efficient than their previous heating.
