Straight answers about choosing a heater, sizes, freeze protection, custom builds, and ordering. Don’t see your question? Get in touch.
Choosing a Heater
Start with what you’re heating and the container it’s in — a drum, a tote, a pail, a gas cylinder, a pipe, the ground, or a concrete pour. That points you to the right product family. From there, the temperature you need and how cold it gets determine the exact model.
The fastest way is our heater selector: pick your container and goal, and it recommends the right product. For anything unusual, just ask us.
They’re grouped by what they heat:
See them side by side in the product lineup.
Yes. If your shape, product, or temperature target doesn’t match an off-the-shelf heater, that’s exactly what custom heating solutions are for — engineered to your application instead of forcing a stock product to almost fit.
Using the Equipment
Yes — controlled, even heat is the whole point. Heaters are designed to warm the full container or surface and hold your target temperature without hot spots or scorching, which matters most with sensitive product.
They’re built for it. The equipment is made to handle weather, handling, and daily deployment in real field conditions — from well pads to construction sites to remote installations.
Freeze protection applies continuous, low-level heat to pipes, valves, and lines to keep them above freezing all season. Wraps and heat trace conform to the shape and hold a safe temperature without constant attention. See pipe & freeze protection.
Ordering & Support
Oil & gas, construction, food & beverage, chemical, agriculture, manufacturing, water & wastewater, and military & defense. Each has its own application page.
Use the heater selector to find your product, then request a quote — or call 801-244-9769 or email info@ag-heat.com. Tell us the container, the product, and the conditions and we’ll match you fast.
Every order is backed by AG Heat support. Warranty terms and lead times depend on the product and quantity — see warranty & support or contact us for exact terms with your quote.
It depends on the job. Freeze protection and drum, tote, and cylinder heating use gentle, controlled low heat to hold a target temperature. Process and custom heating goes much higher — up to 200°C (392°F) on custom builds. Tell us your target and we’ll match it.
DEF freezes at about 12°F (−11°C). A DEF-rated tote, drum, or tank heater holds it above freezing — and just as important, holds a controlled temperature so the fluid doesn’t overheat, which degrades it. See the DEF freeze protection guide.
Heat trace runs along long pipe runs; wraps and fitted jackets cover valves, flanges, and fittings — the parts that freeze first. Insulate the line, hold it with a thermostat, and size it for the coldest expected night. See the pipe & valve freeze protection guide.
Long, fixed piping usually calls for heat trace; drums, totes, tanks, and concentrated cold spots call for heating blankets and wraps. Most real sites use both. See heat trace vs. heating blankets.
Hazardous-area (Class/Division) options are available for the right application. Tell us the location and rating you need and we’ll spec a heater that fits it.
Yes. AG Heat covers everything from freeze protection to process heat up to 200°C, so one partner can size and support the warming and freeze protection across your whole operation. AG Chill covers the cooling side.
