Abstract
A dual source heater with radiant and convection heaters operates to provide radiant and convective heat for heating a surrounding space. A quartz heating element provides radiant heat, and a resistive heating element provides convective heat, through openings in the heater housing. A reflector is positioned so that an airflow updraft is created within the housing and airflow is concentrated through the resistive heating element.
