Temporary Heating Systems

Temporary Heat for the Construction Industry, Special Events or Emergency Services

Hytopz takes the time to customize your temporary heating system so you know that it will work for whatever your application might be.  We can size and layout your project for maximum effectiveness.  Being able to accurately estimate the energy consumption will help you quote your actual costs for an event or job.

Estimated Heating Load
The projected heating load for a project is based on maintaining a design temperature that the customer requests.  We take into account the transmission heat loss of the walls and roof from conduction and the heat loss due to infiltrations of outside air through cracks, pores, and other openings in the structure.  The load is calculated using project specific data, project measurements and regional temperature data from the National Oceanographic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).

Air Ventilation Changes per Hour
To adequately dry a structure and exhaust any dirty air we always recommend that you change the inside air of the building 1.2 times per hour.  This is one of the most important aspects of a heating system in a building under construction.  If the air flow is not replaced with fresh air you can have a multitude of problems.  Uncontrolled moisture indoors can cause major damage to the building structure, as well as to furnishings and to finish materials like floors, walls and ceilings.  Uncontrolled moisture can trigger mold growth which not only damages the facility, but can lead to health and performance problems for construction workers.

Fuel Consumption
Calculating the fuel consumption varies with the type of fuel/energy.  Formulas for each fuel type will be either in gallons (propane, diesel), Therms (natural gas) or kilowatts (electricity).  When calculating fuel consumption we take into account the outside average temperature during a given heating period and the average temperature differential.
