Aeroheaters Explained

Aeroheaters are Prodigy Tech's heat generators, and each one targets a different temperature band. The Capacitor Aeroheater is the entry tier, Magmatic Aeroheater runs hotter, and the Energion Aeroheater reaches the highest temperatures. Match the aeroheater to the machine's required range — too cold and nothing happens, too hot can waste fuel or damage certain setups.

Using Heat Capacitors

Heat Capacitors store heat so machines keep running when the source pauses. They come in temperature tiers: 125°C, 250°C, 500°C, and 1000°C Heat Capacitor. A capacitor only accepts heat up to its rated temperature, so pick one that matches or exceeds your aeroheater's output.

Building a Stable Setup

1. Place your Aeroheater and let it warm up.

2. Run Air Funnel blocks from the aeroheater into a Heat Capacitor of the correct tier.

3. Run Air Funnels from the capacitor to your machines.

4. Use a Heat Accumulator if you need to buffer larger amounts of heat across multiple machines.

Fuel Choices

Basic fuels like Fuel Pellet and Enriched Fuel burn in the Blower Furnace, while Inferno Fuel feeds the hottest setups. Keep a Fuel Processor running to convert raw materials into pellets so you never run dry mid-craft.
