The Shinook: Ceiling Mounted Heater

"It's too hot over here... it's too cold over there..."

Achieving a uniformly comfortable environment in workshops, warehouses and other rooms with high ceilings has always been a problem. With the Shinook hydronic ceiling mounted heater you can now have uniform heat distribution in buildings with high ceilings - 12' or more!

The Shinook Hydronic Heater provides uniform heat distribution in rooms with high ceilings.

How it works:

The Shinook consists of a spiral thread, aluminum, rib-tube element through which hot water is circulated. A fan, with specially designed blades, is mounted above the rib-tube element. The fan blades are designed to gently push a continuous stream of warmed air down and out to the bottom perimeter of the room (A).

The pressure of the fan then causes the air to circulate in both directions from the bottom perimeter (B). Cooled air is continuously drawn back to the Shinook for reheating and distribution while warm air is continuously pushed to the bottom perimeter of the room. As a result you get very uniform horizontal heat distribution in the bottom of the room. Fan blades are adjustable to match your room size.

In traditional air heating systems a small quantity of air is strongly heated. The hot air rises to the ceiling thus creating a large and extremely uneconomical vertical temperature difference.

The Shinook continuously circulates a large quantity of air and only increases its temperature slightly. The result is uniformly heated air throughout the entire room. You get a more comfortable heating system and lower heating costs.
