"The
Schwank Construction Heater's
infra-red design, coupled with a
natural gas feed, decreased my drying/thawing
time almost in half."
- Scott Jeffery,
Jeffery Homes.
"Extremely
effective and very reliable…a safe,
dry heat source that is fully adjustable."
- Bob Coy,
Project Manager,
The Daniels Corporation. |
Built
for Builders
"The
Hot Tot 200,000 fulfils a need that's long
existed in the construction heating industry,"
says Schwank President George Horich. "It
is not only our largest infra-red construction
heater, but also the first to offer two-stage
operation – high fire for quick warm up
and low fire to maintain temperature."
The
200,000 BTU Hot Tot has all the features
that have made the 90,000 BTU Hot Tot
a favorite with builders across Canada:
- Energy
savings of up to 60%, compared to forced
air construction heaters
- Dry
heat, which leads to reduced drying time
and a corresponding saving in fuel
- No
special certification or training, a mandatory
step with conventional large construction
heaters.
- Hydro
is not required
- Weighing
in at only 50 lbs., the 200,000 BTU Hot
Tot is highly portable
- A
more comfortable and productive working
environment, thanks to the moderate air
temperature (about 65 degrees), quiet
operation and low emissions
- Even,
360 heat coverage
- Safety
switch that automatically shuts off the
heater in the event of a tip over
Builders
and their employees will also welcome the
elimination of the drawbacks that plague
competing “salamander type” forced air heaters,
a technology that is now over a half century
old:
- To
contain the hot air, every door and window
needs to be covered, a step that costs
time and money
- Over
100 hours of training is required to operate
a 400,000 BTU forced air heater
- Electrical
connections are mandatory
- Hot
air rises, which is fine for the ceiling,
but not suitable for walls and floors
- High
emissions, which give workers headaches

Torchia
of Mattamy Homes in Oakville, Ontario,
says the Schwank
Construction Heater
used 30% less propane than competing
products, and improved drywall turnaround
time "dramatically", as condensation
was significantly lower.
In
addition, the Schwank
Construction Heater
allowed Mattamy to pour basement
floors "in record time" and it helped
shorten set-up time. |
