Reznor VZH-60 Infrared Tube Heater – 60,000 BTU, 20-Foot Radiant Heating System
Energy-Efficient. Low Maintenance. Professional-Grade Heating.
The Reznor VZH-60 Infrared Tube Heater is a high-performance 60,000 BTU radiant heating system engineered for indoor commercial and industrial spaces that demand efficient, even, and reliable heat. This complete configuration pairs the Reznor VZH-60 Harsh Environment burner with a 20-foot aluminized steel radiant tube assembly, delivering targeted infrared warmth that heats people, floors, and equipment directly—without wasted energy.
Designed for warehouses, service bays, loading docks, and manufacturing facilities, the VZH-60 offers quiet, draft-free operation and dependable performance backed by Reznor’s proven infrared heating technology.
Energy-Efficient Infrared Heating Performance
Unlike traditional forced-air heaters, infrared tube heaters radiate heat that is absorbed by solid objects rather than warming the air first. This results in more consistent temperatures, reduced heat loss, and improved comfort at lower thermostat settings, helping reduce overall energy consumption while maintaining effective zone heating.

Reznor® Infrared Heating Advantages:
- Even, comfortable temperatures - heated infrared rays are radiated until absorbed by objects. Rays do not warm the air; they warm the air surrounding the heated objects due to the increase in temperature of those objects.
- Energy efficient – reduce energy bills up to 50% and lower thermostats due to infrared heat absorption and radiation of objects
- Warm, dry floors - infrared rays are absorbed by the floor keeping them warm, dry and slip-free.
- Clean, quiet, draft-free operation - does not require fans or blowers
- Easy to install, operate and maintain – provides years of trouble-free operation
- Environmentally-friendly – improves overall energy performance and contributes to achieving compliance with the LEED green building rating system
