What is Infra-Red Sauna?

quot; All things grow depend on the sunlight". In the sunlight 40% of the ultraviolet and the high energy rays are harmful to human body; the beneficial is the 60% of the sunlight energy that is the infrared rays. Infrared light is part of the Sun's invisible spectrum of light. The benefits of infrared light are manifested in its ability to penetrate the human tissue. Infrared heater technology uses these far-infrared light characteristics to provide you with several healthful benefits.

What is infra-red energy?

Radiant Barrier Questions and Answers
Infra-red energy is electro-magnetic energy that is not visible. It is next to red in the light wavelength spectrum. It travels at the speed of light (186,000 miles per second), until it hits a surface (like your home). This stopping of the energy source excites the molecules in the wall which starts to conduct the heat towards inside (during the summer). When infra-red energy is traveling through air, a very small portion of the energy is absorbed by molecules in the air.

How does infra-red heating work?

FAQ
A gas fired infra-red tube heater or high intensity heater (normally ceiling suspended) emulates that warmth of the sun by generating radiant energy that converts to useable heat when absorbed by objects in its path. In buildings, objects such as floors, tools and machninery absorb the infra-red radiant energy. This creates a "heat sink" where warmth is stored and re-radiated to warm the surrounding air.
Related Questions

Can infra-red cut my fuel costs?

FAQ
Yes. It is not unusual to generate fuel savings of 40% or more compared to forced air heating methods such as unit heaters. In high bay structures, forced air heaters are impractical because warm convective air rises to the ceiling, leaving floors relatively cold. In fact, warm air must stratify from the ceiling downward to keep people warm at the floor level. Consequently, building owners find that their forced air heaters run almost continually, only to find an outrageous monthly fuel bill.
Related Questions

Do some infra-red heaters perform better than others?

FAQ
Yes. Every infra-red heater manufacturer will say different things about why they feel their product is the best. You may need to sift through the garbage to find out for yourself what makes one appliance brand better than another. Most high intensity infra-red heater brands have few differences in performance. The same cannot be said for infra-red radiant tube heaters.

middot; How are red blood cells produced?

By 8 weeks, blood making has become established in the liver of the embryo, and by 12-16 weeks the liver has become the major site of blood cell formation. It remains an active haemopoietic site until a few weeks before birth. The spleen is also active during this period, particularly in the production of lymphoid cells, and the foetal thymus is a transient site for some lymphocytes.

What is the difference between an infra-red cabin and traditional sauna?

Leisure Group - Quality Sunbeds, Sauna & Steam Nationally : ...
Infra-red Heat is simply a form of energy that heats objects directly through a process called conversion, without having to heat the air in between. This healing light is absorbed 2" deep into the body, increasing circulation and oxygen supply to damaged tissues. Traditional saunas have a basket of rocks heated by the stove on which to throw water to increase the humidity. Called the "löyly" in Finnish, it increases the feeling of heat and makes you sweat.

FAQ #4 Why is my in-built lap-top infra red device causing a problem?

Some built-in lap-top infra-red devices will cause problems with Windows Prolog because they generate a continuous output of information that interferes with the data stream from the VR3. You may find that you cannot download dives, that your VR3 freezes up or that you lose your dive log and gas information settings. Note: if you use an extension cable with your infra-red link, make sure that it is a pin to pin cable, (no crossovers).

I have heard it is unsafe to look into the Infra Red illuminator. Is it so?

Night Vision, Laser Range Finders, Thermal, Stabilized Image...
There is some real basis to this rumor. Many military night vision devices utilize lasers in their illuminators, and some of them might not be eye-safe. Most of our products use low power infrared diodes, identical to the ones used in TV remote controls. Such diodes are absolutely safe. Certain models of our powerful illuminators and aimers are not eye-safe. We always warn our customers when the device can be potentially harmful.
