heating Solutions
Lincoln Contractors Supply’s equipment will keep your job rolling in inclement conditions and during those fast-moving jobs where things need to dry quickly. Heaters are essential on construction sites and in various project environments because they help create safe, productive, and reliable working conditions, particularly when temperatures drop. In construction and industrial projects, extreme cold can lead to delays, damage to materials, and uncomfortable or even unsafe conditions for workers. Heaters ensure that project timelines stay on track by preventing materials like concrete, adhesives, and coatings from freezing or curing improperly, which can lead to costly rework or structural issues.
Our team ensures all equipment is always running smoothly and ready for use.
We proudly provide service 24/7 dropping off equipment, servicing it, and picking up the equipment from your job-sites. We also install and take down machinery. Chat with one of our experts today.
Keeping Warm, Working Safe:
The Role of Heaters on a job-site
Safety
Cold environments can lead to hazards like frostbite and hypothermia, which pose serious health risks to construction crews working long hours in unheated areas. Using heaters helps keep the workspace within a safe temperature range, reducing the likelihood of cold-related injuries and ensuring a safe working environment.
Proper heating also reduces condensation and moisture buildup, which is especially important in painting and finishing applications. Reducing humidity prevents surfaces from warping or bubbling and improves the quality of the final finish.
Materials
Certain materials, like paints, coatings, adhesives, and concrete, have specific temperature requirements for proper curing and setting. When exposed to cold, these materials can become brittle, crack, or fail to adhere correctly, leading to costly rework or even structural issues. Heaters ensure that these materials are used and stored in a stable environment, preserving their integrity.
In addition to curing, heaters prevent other materials like pipes and building supplies from freezing and breaking, which can halt progress and increase project expenses.
Productivity
In cold weather, workers are often slower and less efficient due to the discomfort and the physical strain of staying warm. Proper heating allows workers to focus on their tasks without worrying about frigid temperatures, helping maintain energy and productivity levels even on the coldest days.
For projects that require setting concrete, applying coatings, or other temperature-sensitive work, heaters help maintain the required environment, allowing work to continue without delays due to temperature drops.
