Electric and Gas Hot Air Heaters
28 products · Professional Space Heaters
Hot air generators are mobile appliances that heat unheated or large spaces, such as sites, sheds, warehouses and workplaces. They connect to the mains electricity supply or to a gas cylinder.
Types available
- Single-phase and three-phase electric generators, such as the Master EKO and Vigor models
- Propane gas generators, such as the Vigor models in the Mcs series
- Compact professional fan heaters, also floor-standing
How to choose
First of all, consider the power in relation to the volume to be heated. Then decide between electric, which is convenient where a suitable supply is available, and gas, which is more autonomous but must be used in well-ventilated spaces. Check the available power supply, single-phase or three-phase, and where the appliance will be positioned.

Frequently asked questions: Electric and Gas Hot Air Heaters
What are hot air generators used for?
They quickly heat unheated or very large spaces, such as building sites, industrial buildings, warehouses and workplaces. They connect to the mains electricity supply or to a propane gas cylinder. They are useful when temporary heat is needed or for work where there is no fixed heating system.
Electric or gas hot air generator: which should I choose?
The electric model is convenient where a suitable power line is available and no fuel is needed. The propane gas model is more independent because it does not depend on the mains electricity supply, but it requires ventilation and cylinder handling. Consider the availability of power on site and where you will be working.
How do I choose the right power for the volume to be heated?
Start from the volume of the space in cubic metres and its heat loss: an industrial building with thin walls needs more power than an insulated office. In the range, power goes from 2 kW for the single-phase models up to 22 kW for the three-phase Wind-22. Choose a power suited to the volume, not simply the highest.
What is the difference between single-phase and three-phase for a hot air generator?
Single-phase connects to a normal 230 V socket, while three-phase requires a 400 V three-phase supply. Three-phase models generally cover higher outputs, such as the 22 kW Wind-22. Check the available power supply before buying, because a unit that is not compatible with the supply will not work properly.
Which accessories do I need to direct hot air where it is needed?
To direct the heat there are flexible PVC or nylon hoses of 230 mm and 7.6 metres, two-way outlets and adapter rings. For gas heaters there are also dedicated hoses. The remote thermostat with a 10-metre probe lets you adjust the temperature from a distance. Always check that the accessory is compatible with the model.
How do I use a gas hot air generator safely?
Use it only in ventilated areas, because combustion consumes oxygen and produces exhaust gases. Do not use it in unventilated spaces or where people sleep. Connect the cylinder and the gas hose as indicated by the manufacturer and check regularly that there are no leaks. Keep the generator away from flammable materials.
Which compact fan heaters are available and what are they used for?
There are compact professional fan heaters, such as the B3 ECA, B2 PTC and B1.8 ECA models, and electric heaters such as the B3.3 EPB. Some are also available as floor-standing models. They suit small rooms or a confined work area. Compare power and supply before choosing.
