Frost Fighter IDH200QR Indirect Fired Heater for Job Sites, Warehouses & Events
The Frost Fighter IDH200QR delivers reliable, clean heat for construction sites, warehouses, and industrial applications. This compact indirect-fired heater provides 170,000 BTU/h of heating power with exceptional fuel flexibility and ultra-quiet operation under 74dB.
Key Features of the Frost Fighter IDH200QR Heaters
Multi-Fuel Flexibility
Choose between Oil/Diesel (O/D) or Propane/Natural Gas (LP/NG) models to match your fuel availability and cost requirements. The LP/NG model features a convenient ball valve switchover system for easy transitions between propane and natural gas.
High-Efficiency Multi-Pass Heat Exchanger
The proven stainless steel multi-pass heat exchanger delivers over 81% efficiency, maximizing fuel utilization while providing consistent, clean heat output. This advanced design ensures optimal heat transfer for reduced operating costs.
Extended Ducting Capability
Features a 12" outlet supporting up to 100 feet of supply duct and a 12" intake accommodating up to 50 feet of return duct. This extended ducting capability optimizes fuel consumption and reduces heating times through efficient air recirculation.
Ultra-Quiet Operation
Operating at less than 74dB, this heater is perfect for noise-sensitive environments, including occupied spaces, events, and urban construction sites where sound levels matter.
Cold-Weather Reliability
Independent fan and combustion air systems ensure steady operation in extreme cold climates. The heat exchanger pre-heats before fan operation, eliminating cold air delivery at start-up - crucial for Canadian winter conditions.
Robust Mobile Design
Compact dimensions (52" x 22" x 36") with pneumatic wheels and handles enable easy transport across job sites. The powder-coated finish provides durability against harsh environmental conditions.
