Suitable Industries for Towable Heaters

Construction
Indirect fired heaters are commonly utilized on a variety of construction sites in cold seasons and perpetually cold climates. Frozen soil can be difficult to dig in, causing extra wear and tear on your equipment while reducing productivity. That’s why most sites will employ a ground heater or indirect fired heater to thaw these surfaces prior to excavation.

Whether you need to keep an area warm or need to thaw the ground for digging, we can help. Our towable heaters are easily transportable across nearly any construction site, making it easy to get heat anywhere you need it. Many units also feature extended run times and rugged frames that protect core components from freezing temperatures, dust, and dirt. When you need reliable heating for the most demanding job sites, look no further than our surface heaters.

Agriculture
In addition to construction, indirect fired heaters and ground heaters are a popular choice for agricultural applications. When operating in cold weather or climates, indirect fired heaters can be used to thaw equipment or soil. This reduces strain on your equipment, maximizing its usable life and reducing maintenance costs over time. Whether you’re thawing a tractor or warming up soil for digging/tilling, our surface heaters can help.
