Temporary Heating
There are a number of reasons to use temporary heating on a construction site. Propane offers building contractors a cost-effective temporary heating solution. Whether your workers need temporary heating to dry paint, run equipment, or stay warm themselves, Allied Propane can provide the propane tanks and fuel you need. And we won’t keep you waiting. We can usually offer same-day service to your worksite. And if your project will run for a prolonged period of time and you’ll need routine refueling, we also offer automatic fuel delivery and automatic tank replacement services.
If you use a propane for temporary heating, there are a few things you need to do and be aware of to maintain a safe working environment for everyone on the job.
Here’s how to keep everyone safe around propane-powered temporary heating:
- All combustible materials should have sufficient clear space around them and be kept away from the heating elements. Heating units should be caged to prevent combustible materials from accidentally coming into contact with their hot surfaces.
- All heating units should have built-in safety measures that will shut them off in the event they tip over. Additionally, they should be secured in such a way as prevents tipping.
- All heating units should be installed on flooring that is non-combustible.
- All propane cylinders should be stored outside. They should be kept secured from tipping and protected from incidental damage from things like vehicles and work equipment.
