Applications
Infrared Australia provides a wide range of energy-efficient infrared heaters for various applications, from stylish alfresco areas and commercial buildings to hospitality spaces.
Heliosa & Helios Short-wave Infrared Heaters – Instant Comfort Where it’s needed.
Infrared Australia’s range of short-wave infrared heaters are the best alternative to the conventional mushroom gas heater, electric medium and far wave infrared heaters for outdoor, large open spaces use. Unlike other conventional infrared heaters, short-wave infrared heaters emit high-intensity heat directly absorbed by objects and people, rather than heating air. This direct heat transfer is more efficient, as it reduces energy loss to the surrounding environment.
Our system has been proven to work effectively across the following applications:

Ustilise Localised Warming in Your Infrared Heating Solution
The Heliosa and Helios range of short-wave infrared heaters use the principle of localised heating to heat residential, commercial, and hospitality spaces more effectively than traditional convection systems.
They work by using short wave infrared technology to create a focused “heat zone” that warms people and objects directly, rather than the surrounding air. This makes them ideal for open or partially enclosed areas, such as patios, balconies, dining spaces, or high-ceiling rooms where heat is often lost through air movement.
By using local warming, infrared heaters provide:
- Efficient heat that targets where it’s needed
- Comfortable warmth that suits the space and activity
- Lower energy costs compared to air-based heating systems
This method ensures reliable, consistent warmth — even in spaces exposed to wind, drafts, or frequent door openings.
