Abstract
An infrared heater includes a combustion chamber having a radiator with a surface arranged to direct radiant heat in a forward heating direction. A fan has an outlet opening which is located to direct a flow of air above the radiating surface, thereby deflecting convective air heated by the combustion chamber in the forward direction. The fan is mounted above and on the rear side of the chamber so that it is out of the influence of radiant and convective heat developed by the chamber. A motor which drives the fan is mounted at one end of the fan so that the motor is also not affected by the radiant and convective heat.
