Hello! I bought a home with a 50x100 shop with 17' rafters that's has two 40' readiant tube heaters. I let them run for 3 days and it only raised the temp about 10 degrees(35-45). I have worked under these many times and know they can work well. Former owner said they use to keep the shop at 70 degrees in the winter. What should I look for for this inefficient operation? I'm thinking the tubes are sooted up but not sure how to clean them properly. Will a chimney sweep work? Any other opinions on what could cause this? Thank you in advance...
