The U-tube design maximizes the radiant surface area in a small footprint.

Description
The SunStar Garage Tube Heater is ideal for residential garages, vestibules, entryways, workshops, enclosed patios, restaurants, smoking shelters, small greenhouses, hard-to-heat small areas and low-ceiling height applications. Low intensity radiant heat can save up to 30% in fuel savings over convection warm air heating. Heaters can be controlled by a line voltage thermostat (sold separately). If preferred, the heaters can be controlled by a 24V Thermostat and a 24V Thermostat Relay Kit (both sold separately).
NOTE: In residential garage applications, the heater must be vented outside through sidewall or the roof. In commercial/industrial space heating applications, the heater can be indirectly vented (optional exhaust hood sold separately). Please review the detailed Installation & Operating Instructions (attached) for other specific installation requirements (gas pressure, ventilation etc.) prior to purchasing the heater.
