Used in processes that require a hot air source, Direct Fired Air Heaters are ideal for applications that are not sensitive to the by-products of combustion. Direct Fired Process Air Heaters, as their name implies, apply heat directly to the product air stream. These process heaters are used in heat treating, drying, curing, mining, printing and many other industries.
