What is a “TOUGH GUY” Heater?
TOUGH GUY Emitter tubes use heat-treated aluminized steel tubes that that can withstand higher operating temperatures than other conventional tube materials and is very absorptive of the flame on the inside of the tube and very emissive on the outside, increasing the heating efficiency. The heat treating process provides unsurpassed corrosion resistance to ferrous metal by providing a self-forming, self-healing coating of practically infusible alumina which is impervious to oxygen, carbon, sulfur and the products of combustion of natural and liquefied propane gas and is, therefore, extremely corrosion resistant. TOUGH GUY emitter tubes are highly recommended for high humidity / corrosive environments such as dairy barns, swimming pools, greenhouses, or water treatment plants.
