SECTION 1: CONCEPT SECTION 1: CONCEPT The concept of CRV-Series is easy to understand. However, it means discarding old ideas because CRV- Series is a different kind of heating system. CRV-Series is a gas-fired, vacuum-operated, low- intensity infrared heating system incorporating a pat- ented incremental burner system. Gas-Fired means it uses clean-burning Natural or Propane gas. Vacuum-Operated means that the pump draws all the products of combustion through the system and expels them ou

CRV-SERIES DESIGN MANUAL 2.3 Fuel Savings and Comfort Space heating can be accomplished with less input capacity when a radiant heating system is utilized, rather than with a conventional convective heating system. Why is this so? A conventional, convective heating system, such as a unit heater or central furnace works by heating the air, which then indirectly heats the area and occupants. CRV-Series utilizes infrared energy to heat objects, people and surfaces directly, not the air. The
