Flagro Indirect-Fired Heaters for Safe, Clean Heat in Canada

Finding the right heating solution for your construction site, warehouse, or agricultural facility shouldn't be complicated. Flagro indirect-fired heaters deliver clean, dry, fume-free heat that keeps your operations running smoothly even in Canada's harshest winter conditions.

What Are Indirect-Fired Heaters?

An indirect-fired heater burns fuel in a sealed combustion chamber, then transfers that heat through a heat exchanger to warm the air that circulates into your space. Unlike direct-fired heaters, all combustion gases are safely vented outside, ensuring clean air for workers and sensitive equipment.

This technology makes indirect-fired heaters essential for enclosed spaces, where air quality matters from construction sites to livestock barns to event tents.

How to Size Your Flagro Heater

Proper sizing ensures efficient operation and adequate heating. Use this industry-standard formula:

BTUs Required = Volume (ft³) × Temperature Rise (°F) × Insulation Factor

Insulation Factors:

  • Well-insulated building: 0.8-1.0

  • Moderately insulated: 1.5-2.0

  • Poorly insulated/leaky: 2.5-3.5

Example Calculation:

Small Workshop: 30' × 20' × 12' = 7,200 ft³

  • Temperature rise needed: 50°F (from 20°F to 70°F)

  • Insulation: Moderate (factor = 1.5)

  • BTUs needed: 7,200 × 50 × 1.5 = 540,000 BTU/hr

Recommended model: Flagro FVNP-750 for reliable performance with a safety margin.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is an indirect-fired heater?

An indirect-fired heater burns fuel in a sealed combustion chamber and transfers heat through a heat exchanger, delivering clean air without combustion byproducts. This makes them safe for enclosed spaces where people work.

How long do Flagro heaters last?

With proper maintenance, Flagro heaters are built to last for years of heavy use. The 304 stainless steel heat exchangers and quality Riello burners ensure durability even in harsh conditions.

What is Flagro used for?

Flagro heaters provide temporary heating solutions for construction, commercial, and industrial sectors. They're ideal for job sites, warehouses, barns, event spaces, and any application requiring clean, reliable heat.

What's the difference between direct and indirect heating?

Indirect heaters process air through a heat exchanger, delivering clean, dry air. Direct heaters mix combustion gases with heated air, which can introduce moisture and fumes into the workspace.

Can indirect-fired heaters be used in poorly ventilated areas?

Yes! Indirect-fired heaters are specifically designed for enclosed or poorly ventilated areas because combustion gases are contained and vented outside, while only clean heated air enters the space.

Why choose indirect-fired heaters for construction?

Indirect-fired heaters provide dry, clean heat without adding humidity, perfect for concrete curing, paint drying, and maintaining consistent work conditions without compromising air quality.
