For a state-of-the-art heating system for a new hangar at London’s third busiest airport, London Stansted - there was only one choice – Nor-Ray-Vac continuous radiant tube heating from AmbiRad. Used extensively across many civil and military hangars, it is a proven, highly efficient system that offers rapid heat recovery time and promises considerable cost savings over its lifecycle.

To heat a cavernous airport hangar used for training pilots and housing helicopters, Newquay Cornwall Airport was looking for a heating system that not only provided warmth but also flexibility and superb efficiency. The solution was found in leading European supplier of heating systems AmbiRad’s vision series, a radiant heating system which is ideal for a massive hangar where frequent opening of the hangar doors causes a high number of air changes and heat loss.

Aircraft hangars have never been easy spaces to heat, but Nick Winton of AmbiRad Ltd believes the industry now has the answers.
