Delta T Solutions Introduces Shield™ Tubular Gas-Fired Unit Heaters

Tubular Gas-Fired Unit HeatersSAN MARCOS, Calif., June 23, 2006 – Delta T Solutions introduces the Shield tubular gas-fired unit heaters, the newest product offering in the company’s full line of greenhouse heating systems. Also called the Model GF, this complete heating system provides five times the warranty of the competition in the greenhouse environment, as well as innovative features that make it a long-lasting and reliable source of safe, efficient, and economical greenhouse heating.

The key product features of the Model GF heaters include stainless steel construction, designed to withstand moisture and chemicals; a tubular heat exchanger for significantly longer life; 81 percent thermal (combustion) efficiency (via direct spark ignition and power venting); the highest Btu output of any greenhouse unit heater; and the only five-year warranty in the industry for greenhouse use of this type of system.

Heat transfer that is both maximum and uniform is a major benefit afforded by the innovative tubular design of the Model GF heaters, for a significantly longer service life. Tubular heat exchangers are constructed of heavy-duty, 20-gauge 409 stainless steel and are less susceptible to contaminants than the exposed clamshell heat exchangers found in other competitive models.

In addition to greenhouses, other applications include processing plants, waste water treatment facilities, agricultural industry, food service industry, and any heating application requiring visual appeal.

The complete range of benefits offered by the Shield tubular gas-fired unit heaters include:

  • tubular stainless steel construction for maximum corrosion resistance to moisture and rust
  • 150,000 – 400,000 Btu capacity range for any size application; no other greenhouse heater on the market offers this level of Btu output
  • individually adjustable and locking louvers
  • power vented
  • in-shot type burners
  • single-stage combination gas valve
  • designed for natural or propane (LP) gas
  • easy access control panel
  • 24-volt control circuit
  • 115-volt fan with internal overload protection
  • five-year war
  • for use in both glass and poly greenhouses

“We’re very excited about this most recent addition to our product line,” said Russ Zabel, president of Delta T Solutions. “The Model GF heaters afford the user a wide range of options and features in a complete system. With their five-year warranty, the Shield tubular gas-fired unit heaters offer five times the warranty of the competition, which has no warranty on products used in the greenhouse.”

Shield gas-fired unit heater models are certified in accordance with Category I and III venting requirements.  Designed with the service person in mind, operating controls are easily accessible in one centrally located control panel. The integrated electronic control board on the Model GF regulates the system sequence of operation, including an onboard LED indicator for simple troubleshooting.
