Heat Design Equipment Inc

HEAT DESIGN EQUIPMENT INC manufactures infrared asphalt heating equipment for asphalt pavement patching, longitudinal joint heating for durable joints and pre-heating for cold weather paving, as well as asphalt recyclers and hot box storage containers.

Infrared heaters, provide high intensity, penetrating radiant heat into asphalt in place, without burning the surface. Open flame to re-heat pavement surfaces has been shown to damage the asphalt without achieving penetration to an effective depth. Many jurisdictions now ban the use of open flame to re-heat asphalt and recommend infrared.

​The HDE patented design, allows continuous, uniform re-heating of the asphalt in place, to perform quick asphalt patch repair with a seamless joint, or pre-heating to allow re-compaction and an effective bond between an existing pavement surface and a new asphalt layer. This is especially important to achieve good longitudinal joints and when attempting cold weather paving. It will reduce early pavement deterioration and costly reconstruction of our roads.
