Which heater for a workshop? - The expert guide
How do I calculate the right heating power for my workshop?
Important: With infrared heaters, you don’t need to heat the entire hall area. The heating power is based on the actual work surface, not the room size.
| Application area | Power per m² work surface | Example | TANSUN recommendation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Coldest winter days | 0.2 kW per m² | 10m² workstation = 2kW | Apollo 2kW |
| Transition period (autumn/spring) | 0.1-0.15 kW per m² | 10m² workstation = 1-1.5kW | Apollo 2kW with dimmer |
| Large hall, local heating | 0.2 kW per m² work area | 15m² in 100m² hall = 3kW | Apollo Double 3kW |
Advantage of zone heating: With a 2kW TANSUN heater, you can efficiently heat a 10m² workstation in a 100m² hall without heating the entire hall.
Which infrared heater for which workshop application?
| Application area | Typical work surface | Required power | TANSUN solution | Price from |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Hobby workshop | 5-10m² work area | 1-2 kW | Apollo 2kW with dimmer | €639 |
| Auto workshop workstation | 10-15m² around the vehicle | 2-3 kW | Apollo Double 3kW | €845 |
| Industrial workshop zone | 15-20m² production area | 3-4 kW | Spotter 2 x 1.5kW | €985 |
| Multiple workstations | 20m²+ distributed areas | 4-6 kW | Combination of multiple units | From €1,200 |
Why choose infrared heating over gas heating for the workshop?
- Zone heating possible - Heat only work areas, not the entire hall
- Instant heat without preheating time - Warmth in seconds, not minutes
- No gas connections needed - Easy installation with electrical connection
- CO2-neutral with green electricity - More environmentally friendly than gas with 20-40% energy loss
- Maintenance-free - No annual gas boiler inspections
- Targeted warmth - Heats surfaces and people, not the air
Is infrared heating suitable for garages?
Yes, infrared heating is ideal for garages! TANSUN infrared heaters work even with poor insulation and frequent door openings. The shortwave technology heats people and objects directly without needing to warm the air. Especially efficient for occasional use.

Industrial workshops
Example: 4kW for 20m² production area in a 200m² hall. Zone heating for specific workstations, maintenance-free, no gas connections required, ready to use immediately.
Repair workshops
Example: 2x 2kW for two 10m² work areas in a 120m² hall. Precise heat without air movement, protects sensitive components, flexible arrangement possible.
Energy efficiency: Why zone heating with infrared is more economical
Practical example: 100m² workshop with 15m² work area
| Type of heating | Area to be heated | Required power | Electricity cost/hour* | Heating time |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| TANSUN infrared heating | 15m² (work area only) | 3kW | €0,90 | Immediate |
| Conventional hall heating | 100m² (entire hall) | 15-20kW | €4.50-€6.00 | 30-60 minutes |
*At an electricity price of €0.30/kWh
Savings: Up to 80% less energy consumption by heating only the required work area. An additional 30-50% savings possible during transitional periods with dimmer function.
