The Sunheat Infrared heater is a portable heater in a wooden encasing. It has infrared heat tubes and copper. There is a fan which sucks the air from the room and pushes it into the heat chamber. The moisture in that air absorbs the infrared heat and it is pushed out into the room, warming the room.
