Understanding your garage
Warmth where your mechanics work
A garage needs an approach for each work area. Staff work at different heights and positions around vehicles. Lifts, open doors and mounting points help determine suitable heater positions.
Vehicle lifts & maintenance
We assess staff positions around vehicles and access to the area. Vehicles and lifts can affect radiant coverage.
Workbenches & diagnostics
Fixed workstations can be included separately in the heating plan, with controls suited to occupancy.
Doors & passageways
Door opening frequency and duration belong in the assessment. Workstation comfort and air temperature throughout the garage are different objectives.
Electric infrared heating
Targeted warmth for maintenance and repairs
Electric infrared heaters are an option for targeted workstation warmth. Star Progetti offers professional Helios Radiant heaters for industrial work areas and automotive applications.
We assess the appropriate model for each setup. Vehicle positions, mounting height and manufacturer-specified clearances inform the choice.

Suitable technology
Workstation comfort or whole-garage heating?
Your intended use is the starting point. We compare targeted radiant warmth with heating intended to maintain air temperature throughout the space.
Fixed short-wave heaters
An option for quickly perceptible warmth in work areas. Placement and controls are tailored to the workstation.
Long-wave panels
We consider long-wave heating when height, layout and operating hours suit it.
Electric air heating
If the entire garage needs a specific air temperature, we assess heat demand and air distribution.
For tasks in changing locations, we also consider mobile infrared heaters. Mention any wash areas, dust, vapours or other specific conditions.
From layout to proposal
A heating plan for your garage
Send a sketch or floor plan so we can assess work areas, mounting points and preferred controls together.
1. Identify work areas
Mark lifts, workbenches, doors, walkways and staff workstations.
2. Assess conditions
Provide dimensions, ceiling height, insulation, door use and available electrical connections.
3. Match daily use
Working hours, occupancy and desired comfort help us select heaters and controls for each area.
Understanding power and use
Running-cost comparisons require more than heater power: operating hours, energy tariffs and existing system use also matter. No fixed saving percentage applies to every garage.
Practical questions
Frequently asked questions about garage heating
These details help make your enquiry specific.
Can I heat only around the lifts?
Targeted heating is an option depending on positions around the vehicle, obstructions and available mounting points.
What if garage doors open frequently?
State opening frequency and duration. These affect heat demand and workstation conditions. The proposal considers desired comfort and air temperature.
Is a mobile heater suitable?
A mobile heater can be practical for changing tasks. We assess placement and connection according to the chosen model’s instructions.
Can you also heat the reception area?
Yes. Offices and reception areas are assessed as separate zones because their use differs from the workshop.
What details are needed for a quote?
Send dimensions, height, layout, working hours and details of doors and electrical connections. Photos of workstations and mounting positions help assessment.
