Marine Electric Heater

For the fishing, boating and yacht enthusiasts, a marine electric heater is a must to ensure a comfortable and enjoyable trip. Fishers rely on the marine electric heater to keep them warm as they tend to spend long hours on the boat waiting for a prize winning fish to take their bait. Those who enjoy a night out at sea would also appreciate the marine electric heater when the chilly sea breeze comes on deck. There are many types of marine electric heaters which are also used by the navy.

Immersion heaters

For fishers and the navy alike, they all need hot water. The only way to get hot water in the middle of the ocean is by the immersion water heater. Ideal water heating is attained through immersion heater and through heat exchange where the boat’s engine heats the water. Both the immersion heater and heat exchanger coil is installed at the lowest portion of the tank to ensure even thermo cycle heating.

The heat exchanger coils are long to speed up the water heating process which is especially suitable for yachts which only keep their engines on for a short period of time. Water inlets and outlets of the heater are placed strategically to reduce the chances of incoming cold water to mix with the already heated water. Immersion heaters are designed for easy detachment to permit cleaning and inspection of the tank. Immersion heaters are usually made of high quality acid resistant steel. The insides of the tank are insulated to minimize temperature loss.

Electric Duct Heaters

Electric duct heaters that are currently manufactured and supplied come in various shapes and sizes. The main function of the electric duct is to pre heat air; which is taken from the surface of the ships; and transfers the heated air into rooms and compartments on ships as well as submarines.
Electric Duct Heaters are built compact and light to ensure that the heat source does not leak onto the cargoes and the ships’ crew.

Convection Heaters

Marine electric heaters also include convection heaters which are suitable for bathrooms and toilets. This is because the materials used on a convection heater are highly water resistant.

Blower Heaters

Aboard the ships’ living quarters, the blower heaters are most commonly utilized. Blower heaters are usually built for versatility. In that way, the heater can be mounted and installed in almost any manner desired. Blower heaters can be placed by the wall, installed on the ceiling and etc.

Steam Boilers

Last but not least, electric steam boilers are the best equipment available to generate steam on a ship. Hot steam is vital for the galley and the laundry room on the ship. Several steam boilers are designed small to enter hatches to ease installation or removal of the boilers

Certain marine electric heaters come with ISO certification and backed by the US Marine. When purchasing a marine electric heater, these certifications would guarantee the reliability and durability of the heater which means less maintenance costs
