Places of Worship
Creating a comfortable atmosphere for places of worship can be a challenging task, especially in historic or large spaces that are hard to heat efficiently.
Energy-efficient infrared heaters for Church
Heliosa Short wave Infrared Heaters excel at providing efficient and effective heating for churches and heritage buildings.
Our heaters utilise the most efficient short-wave infrared radiance, ensuring that over 92% of the energy used is transformed into heat. This leads to savings of up to 60% when compared to other traditional infrared heaters. The key to this efficiency is that short-wave infrared directly heats people and objects.
These infrared heaters feature versatile installation options, from wall mounts to ceiling fittings, allowing for a cost-effective and non-intrusive installation. Designed with the safety of historical buildings in mind, our heaters provide gentle warmth that safeguards your worship space.
Low maintenance – our heating elements can last up to 7000 hours. Be sure to check our case studies:

Why Heliosa Short Wave Infrared Outdoor Heater?
Short Wave Infrared Heating Technology
Heliosa outdoor heaters use short-wave infrared technology to deliver high-intensity and instant warmth. They can concentrate heat only on those areas that need it, allowing us to create instant comfort zones within a larger space at a lower cost.
Special Patented Reflectors
Heliosa’s infrared heater is designed with a special patented parabolic reflector, allowing you to maximise coverage with fewer heater units in your outdoor space.
Long Life InfraCalor® Bulbs
All Heliosa outdoor heaters have InfraCalor® Bulbs for outdoor use in areas exposed to the weather (IPX5). These bulbs also provide approximately 7,000 hours of long life. All bulbs are replaceable, and we hold stock for replacement.
ALL HEATERS ARE fully tested
All outdoor heaters are designed by the leading European manufacturer, Star Progetti. All products have undergone necessary tests to verify safety and reliability.
Frequently Asked Questions – Heliosa Short-wave Infrared Heaters
How do Short-Wave Infrared Heaters work?
Heliosa short-wave infrared heaters work by generating intense bursts of radiant heat in the form of short-wave infrared radiation. The heater uses the patented parabolic reflector and InFraCaLoR® halogen lamp that rapidly heats up when electricity is applied to it (within 1 second of switching on). Our short-wave infrared heaters emit focused infrared radiation that directly heats objects and people within their range. This rapid and efficient heating process ensures that you feel warmth almost instantly, making them ideal for outdoor and large indoor spaces.
How effective are Short-wave infrared heaters?
Multiply the heater’s rated kilowatts by your electricity kilowatt-hour rate. While costs are similar to most heaters on the market, consider radiant efficiency for optimal results. Short-wave infrared heaters, boasting 92% radiant efficiency, deliver more heat per kilowatt-hour. This efficiency is crucial for outdoor spaces, making them a more effective and economical choice.
How many heaters do I need?
The ideal number depends on factors like your outdoor space size, desired temperature, and heater coverage. Calculate wattage based on space and insulation, with one Heliosa 66 heater covering up to 20m².

How long does it take to heat a space after installing a Heliosa Infrared Heater?
You typically do not need to pre-heat your space after installing a Heliosa infrared heater. These heaters emit radiant heat that warms objects and people directly, without the need to warm the surrounding air first. This means you can enjoy immediate warmth as soon as you turn on the heater. It’s a quick and efficient heating solution, making it unnecessary to wait for the entire space to reach a certain temperature before feeling comfortable.
How often do I replace the bulbs?
The InFraCaLoR® halogen lamps used in Heliosa heaters can be replaced, and we hold stocks for replacement. However, the manufacturer suggests a life of up to 7000 hours, depending on usage patterns. This effectively means that within a residential environment, they last many years.
How do I control the heaters?
Most outdoor applications do not require a controller when using Heliosa short-wave infrared heaters because of the instant heat. Heliosa can be installed with controllers or timers, offering greater flexibility and efficiency in usage – adjusting the heat output, or setting a timer to switch off the heater automatically.
Are there any Heliosa heaters with no light emission or ‘glow’?
Heliosa heaters use short-wave infrared waves to warm up surroundings. Short-wave infrared waves are closer to the visible part of the electromagnetic spectrum. Therefore, while operating, some energy is used to emit light and the rest to provide instant, powerful heat. This visible light is actually less than 6% of the total output.
