Industrial Unit Heating Solutions UK

Whether you manage a small trade unit or a large multi-bay industrial facility, efficient and cost-effective heating is essential for productivity, equipment protection, and employee comfort. Hadar Industries supplies and supports a comprehensive range of industrial unit heating solutions across the UK, helping businesses reduce energy costs while maintaining reliable warmth all year round.

Why Industrial Units Need Specialist Heating Systems

Standard domestic or light commercial heating is rarely suitable for industrial units. High ceilings, large open floor areas, wide roller shutter doors, and varying occupancy patterns all create heating challenges that require purpose-built equipment and expert system design.

At Hadar Industries, we work with businesses of all sizes to assess their specific requirements and recommend the most appropriate heating technology. Our solutions are engineered for energy efficiency, low maintenance, and long service life, giving you confidence in your heating investment from day one.

Our Industrial Unit Heating Products and Systems

Warm Air Heating for Industrial Units

Warm air heaters are one of the most popular and practical choices for industrial unit heating. They deliver rapid heat-up times, even temperature distribution, and straightforward installation, making them ideal for units where fast response and low running costs are priorities.

Hadar supplies a wide range of direct-fired and indirect gas warm air heaters, including units from Apen and our own Hadar-branded range. Models such as the Hadar Fornax, Hadar Vortex, and Apen LRN are well suited to industrial units of varying sizes and layouts, including those with high eaves or challenging configurations.

Key benefits of warm air heating for industrial units:

Fast heat-up from cold
Consistent, even heat distribution across large floor areas
Low installation and maintenance costs
Compatible with building management systems for scheduled control
Suitable for units with ceiling heights from 3m to 12m and above

Radiant Heating for Industrial Units

Radiant heating works by warming people and surfaces directly rather than heating the air, making it highly efficient in spaces where doors are frequently opened or where draughts are unavoidable. This makes radiant heaters an excellent choice for industrial units with regular vehicle or pedestrian access.

Hadar offers both gas-fired radiant tube heaters and electric radiant heating panels. The Space-Ray range of radiant tube heaters delivers outstanding performance in larger industrial units, while our electric radiant options such as the Apollo, Monaco, and Sorrento series provide flexible, zone-specific heating for smaller areas or supplementary heating needs.

Radiant heating advantages for industrial units:

No heat loss through ventilation or open doors
Immediate comfort at occupant level
Ideal for spot heating and zone heating applications
Low maintenance with long operational lifespans
Electric radiant options require no gas supply or flue

Hybrid Heat Pump and Condensing Boiler Systems

For industrial unit operators focused on reducing carbon emissions and long-term energy costs, Hadar's hybrid heating systems offer a highly efficient alternative to conventional gas-only solutions. The Apen AquaPump combines a high-efficiency air source heat pump with a condensing boiler, automatically switching between the two energy sources to minimise operating costs at any given outdoor temperature.

When paired with a low pressure hot water (LPHW) distribution system, this hybrid approach delivers precise temperature control, reduced gas consumption, and lower carbon output across the whole facility. It is particularly well suited to industrial units where businesses are working toward net zero targets or looking to future-proof their heating infrastructure ahead of tightening environmental regulations.

Benefits of hybrid heating systems for industrial units:

Significant reduction in gas consumption and energy bills
Lower carbon footprint compared to gas-only heating
Automatic switching between heat pump and boiler for optimal efficiency
Compatible with existing LPHW pipework in many cases
Eligible for potential energy efficiency incentives and funding schemes

Evaporative Cooling for Industrial Units

Maintaining a comfortable working environment in summer is just as important as staying warm in winter. Hadar supplies the ColdAir range of evaporative cooler units, a cost-effective and energy-efficient alternative to traditional air conditioning for industrial buildings.

ColdAir units operate using only a single-phase electricity supply and a mains water connection, making them straightforward to install and very economical to run. Available in wall-mounted and roof-mounted configurations, they are suitable for small to medium-sized industrial units and can significantly reduce working temperatures during hot weather, improving both comfort and productivity.

Destratification Fans for Industrial Units

Heat naturally rises, meaning a significant proportion of energy is often wasted warming the roof space rather than the occupied working area. Hadar's destratification fans address this problem by gently recirculating warm air from the ceiling back down to floor level, where it is actually needed.

Installing destratification fans alongside any industrial unit heating system can reduce energy consumption by up to 30%, shortening payback periods and improving overall system performance throughout the heating season.

Industrial Unit Heating System Design and Installation Support

Selecting the right heating system for an industrial unit depends on a number of factors, including floor area, ceiling height, building fabric, number and size of access doors, occupancy patterns, and available energy supplies. Getting this balance right from the outset avoids costly retrofits and ensures your system performs as expected from day one.
