Why Quartz Heating Tubes Matter
Quartz heating tubes are the core of any high-quality room heater. Not like halogen or carbon tubes, pure quartz tubes deliver soft, comfortable radiant heat with low energy consumption and long lifespan—ideal for bedrooms, living rooms, and offices.
1. Choose High-Purity Quartz Glass
Look for 99.9% purity quartz.
This ensures:
- Better heat resistance
- Longer service life
- Stable infrared output
- No yellowing or cracking
2. Pick the Right Tube Size
Common diameters: 10–23 mm
Best wall thickness: 1.0–1.5 mm
For room heaters, 10–23 mm tubes provide the perfect balance of durability and performance.
3. Select the Correct Watt Density
For indoor comfort heating:
-
based on your dimensions,design the best watt density
-
Prevents overheating
-
Produces soft, natural radiant heat
Avoid high watt density tubes—they cause dryness and harsh heat.
4. Make the heating evenly
Best for premium room heaters: Frosted or ceramic-coated tubes.
5. Match Surface loading
Choose tubes that match your heater design and local power standards.
6. Check Safety & Build Quality
A premium quartz tube should have:
- Ceramic caps
- Strong nickel terminals
- Even filament spacing
- RoHS / REACH compliance
These ensure reliability and safe indoor use.
7. Lifespan & Performance
High-quality quartz heating tubes offer:
more than 3,000 hours lifespan, stable heat output, and low maintenance.
Conclusion
Choosing the right quartz heating tube greatly improves:
✔ Comfort
✔ Efficiency
✔ Safety
