High-Output Medium Wave Electric Wave (MEL)

The MEL Series is a high-wattage, commercial-grade electric heater offering. A great choice for spot heating and outdoor patios, the MEL series can accommodate a wide variety of heating needs. Heaters are equipped with a specially designed reflector for optimal radiant heat output and optional wall mounting brackets allow adjustment of the heating direction.

High-output medium wave elements produce a mild white light while operating. Light is visible on walls and at the ground level, but is around 30% less bright than a typical short-wave element. However, high-output medium wave elements have an output equal to their short-wave counterparts, making them the preferred choice for spot heating, outdoor patios, and other applications where more heat is required but the short wave elements’ intense brightness is not.
