Infrared Heat

What Is Far Infrared Light

Far Infrared (FIR) is a form of naturally occurring photonic energy. The length of light waves in the electromagnetic spectrum will determine if they can be seen as light or felt in the form of heat. The heat we feel from a fire or from a warm sidewalk or even the heat from the palm of the hand are everyday examples of far infrared radiant heat. A far infrared ray is photonic light energy radiating within a specific measurement of wavelengths from 4 to 1,000 microns respectively. Although, far infrared is invisible to the human eye it can be felt by our bodies.

How can light heat your home?

Far infrared is simply a form of energy that heats by absorption. This can be a pretty efficient way to heat a room. FIR heats up the objects in the room (walls, floors, ceilings, furniture), which in turn warm the air by radiating the heat back safely and healthfully. It has been shown that infrared waves penetrate objects much faster then conventional heat waves. Research has shown that as much as 80% of the heat generated by a far infrared heater is absorbed by the objects in the room. With our conventional heating systems we heat the air. As we know, when we heat the air we lose that warmed air through the walls, floors, and ceiling. Have you ever sat in a room, really cold, while the heat rises to the ceiling? Imagine sitting in a room that is heated by FIR light, which your body absorbs; you, your furniture and your room are healthfully warmed from the inside out.

Are there any health benefits to Far Infrared Heat?

For years, Far Infrared radiant energy has been researched quite extensively as a natural, clean and efficient heat source with healthy side benefits.

It has been shown that mold and mildew cannot grow in the presence of far infrared light.
Using far infrared can eliminate odors.
Dentists have used FIR on patients to reduce inflammation and speed their healing process.
Newborn babies are kept warm after their birth with far infrared heaters.
FIR has been shown to be very relaxing and is used as a complimentary health tool by many massage therapists.
Japanese researchers first discovered FIR is a support for those who suffer from arthritis.
NASA has utilized far infrared therapy to help maintain fitness levels of astronauts in weightless environments.
According to the Clayton’s Electrotherapy, 9th edition, far infrared radiation is the only known antidote for excessive sunburn or ultraviolet radiation.

Tessa’s Testimonial

Personal Experiences with Far Infrared Heat

Hello, my name is Tessa Rose. I write this for two reasons.1) I am a fan of far infrared technology and 2) I love living with far infrared heat, so much so, that I became a ComfortZone Heater Sales Partner. The experiences I share here are my initial tests of the ComfortZone far infrared heater. I like to hold a bit of a skeptical perspective as I use a new product. I cannot, in good conscience recommend a product unless I have personally used it. I live in the Northwest, which has a pretty mild climate with moist to damp conditions most of the year. I purchased my first ComfortZone FIR heater for my wellness studio, which is tucked up into the forest, so the studio can become especially damp.

As I set my heater’s thermostat, I decided to pay very close attention to the internal conditions of the dwelling as I began this new style of heating it. My first awareness that something different was going on was after a few hours of using the heater. The sheets and blankets on the massage table I use for clients felt different to me. I realized that they felt crisp and dry to my touch. I truly had not realized how damp they were usually until they weren’t.

My feet told me the carpet felt different-round; dry with a new texture to it. This made me even more curious. My first client laughed as I told her we were being heated by light. As we moved into her session I observed her relaxing deeply as the heater warmed us both as the unseen light touched our skin. After three days of using my new ComfortZone heater I touched the linens stored in the closets in the studio. Even though the doors had remained closed except for when I would open them to remove fresh sheets every one of them were crisp and dry. This was a new experience for me, because usually there was a short time after pulling fresh linens from the storage closet that they were a bit damp to my touch. Apparently the FIR light from my ComfortZone heater made it threw the wood and began warming and drying the closet area with the doors closed.

By day five of using my ComfortZone heater, I began to notice the walls and carpets of the studio release what I finally figured out were mold spores that had been living in them. Mind you~ my studio is pristine or so I thought. I reached over to touch the walls and they felt warm to my touch. I wondered out loud," Had the unseen light penetrated into the walls like the literature said?" I began to start believing the information shared with me from the ComfortZone ads….’proof is in the pudding’ after all!

The last of my many noticings was around the live plants and cut flowers that live in my studio. I noticed the plants started to perk up even in the dead of winter, and the cut flower blossoms opened slowly and seemed to stay open much, much. much longer. When the flower blossoms lasted for weeks longer then they usually did, I became a believer in the miracle that far infrared heat is in my life. FIR is photosynthesis so it makes sense that livng plants would respond in this way. I like it!

Want to cut your utility bill way down?

I can only speak from my personal experience. As I began using my new ComfortZone far infrared heater I began to track my utility bill. I noticed that it went down. I also asked my heater customers about their utility expenses as they started to use the heaters. The comments went something like; "This is the first time I have felt warm this winter, I don’t care what it costs!" to "Our utility bill dropped distinctly when we started using our ComfortZone far infrared heater".

Some of my customers ran their heaters continuously day and night while others set the remote controlled thermostat to lower the temperature at night and others used the state of the art timer to start their heater an hour before they got up in the morning.

I believe how one uses the ComfortZone far infrared heater will determine how much one saves in their monthly utility bill. Recently I shared one of my heaters with a neighbor who was curious about heating his house with economical light. As he returned the heater he said "I hardly had it on. The FIR went into the furniture and radiated it back so that the room stayed at 70+ degrees all night without the heater even on! I like that!"

So this is what I know. When I heat with far infrared light which penetrates all surfaces except metal and plastic and these surfaces radiate heat back for an extended amount of time- I enjoy a level of comfort that is priceless as well as economical.
