FAQs

Single-phase 230V is the standard UK mains supply — used by most workshops, garages, and small commercial premises. Single-phase electric heaters typically max out at 3 kW (the practical limit for a 13A socket) or 6 kW (on a dedicated 32A circuit). Three-phase 400V is used for industrial workshops and larger commercial premises — three-phase heaters offer outputs up to 30 kW and beyond. Check your supply type before ordering; the heater plug or terminal type tells you which it is.

Electricity use equals the rated output. A 3 kW heater on full output uses 3 kWh per hour — at 30p/kWh that's 90p/hour, or roughly £7-9 for an 8-hour shift. Thermostat cycling reduces consumption to 50-70% of nameplate over a typical heating period. Electric heating is generally more expensive per kWh of heat than propane or diesel — the trade-off is no fuel logistics, no exhaust, and no flame-failure risk.

Yes. Replacement heating elements (sized by length, voltage, and wattage), fan motors, thermal cut-outs, thermostats, and switches are available for the majority of SIP and Sealey electric fan heaters. Search by the heater model code. If your model isn't listed, WhatsApp 07754288583 with the code and a photograph and we will confirm parts availability.

Standard electric fan heaters are NOT rated for flammable-atmosphere use — heating elements operate at temperatures that can ignite fuel vapours, solvent fumes, or fine dust. For workshops handling fuels, paints, or solvents, use specifically ATEX-rated explosion-proof heaters or vent the workspace before heating. The product page lists ATEX rating where applicable; standard workshop fan heaters are not ATEX-rated.

Returns are accepted within 30 days of purchase, in original packaging, on orders delivered within the United Kingdom. For damaged-on-arrival items, report within 24 hours with photographs to [email protected] — we will typically arrange collection and replacement at no cost to you.

For buyer's remorse — you've changed your mind or ordered the wrong item, email us first to obtain a Return Merchandise Number; a restocking fee may apply. Refunds are issued to the original payment method once the return is inspected.

Delivery time depends on the product, your destination, and availability — the estimated time for any item appears on the product page, and 'Check where we deliver' confirms coverage for your postcode before you order.

Electric Fan Heater

Within Heating, Electric Fan Heater covers the mains-electric fan-driven space heaters used in workshops, garages, warehouses, and offices where electrical heating is preferred over fuel-fired alternatives. Electric fan heaters provide flame-free, exhaust-free heating at the cost of higher running cost and dependence on electrical supply capacity. Parts For Machines supplies electric fan heaters across the workshop and commercial output ranges. Industrial fan heaters typically run from 3 kW (workshop bay) up to 9 kW (large commercial) at 230V single-phase or 400V three-phase.

Smaller portable fan heaters at 2-3 kW are also available for office and small-bay use. Three-phase industrial heaters are common at outputs above 6 kW where single-phase supply capacity is insufficient. Parts For Machines is an Authorised Distributor and Seller of SIP and Sealey across the electric fan heater range.

SIP covers industrial workshop heaters with three-phase options; Sealey covers workshop and small-commercial heaters. Clarke and Rhino extend the range with workshop and agricultural electric heaters at competitive trade pricing. Product pages list rated heat output (in kW), supply voltage and phase (230V single-phase or 400V three-phase), supply current draw (must be within the workshop's circuit-breaker rating — a 3 kW heater draws around 13A on 230V; a 9 kW three-phase heater draws around 13A per phase on 400V), thermostat (typical built-in room thermostat with adjustable setpoint), fan output (in m³/h), and weight.

Always confirm the workshop's electrical supply capacity before ordering an electric heater. A 9 kW three-phase heater needs a 16A three-phase supply; a 3 kW single-phase heater needs a dedicated 13A or 16A circuit. Most workshops use a mix of fuel-fired heaters for primary heating and electric fan heaters for spot heating. Trade pricing on multi-unit orders is available; contact the team via WhatsApp 07754288583.
