Catalytic Heaters
Catalytic gas heaters provide heat through a flameless catalytic process, using gas to generate warmth without a conventional burner flame. They are an option for those looking for a portable heating solution with adjustable heat settings.
When choosing a catalytic gas heater, it's worth considering the heat output, gas consumption and size of the space you want to heat. Models with multiple heat settings allow you to adjust the output to suit your requirements.
Our range includes the Super Heat Catalytic Heater, which offers three heat settings and a maximum heat output of 3kW. Its compact cabinet design and built-in wheels make it easy to move when needed.
Always check the manufacturer's room-size and ventilation requirements before use.

Infra-Red Radiant Heaters
Infrared radiant gas heaters work by transferring heat directly to people and objects in their path, rather than relying solely on warming the surrounding air. This makes radiant heating particularly useful for spot heating individual areas.
Radiant heaters can also be useful in larger spaces with high ceilings, where warm air can rise and make conventional heating less effective. The direct heat provided by radiant technology can make it a practical option for suitable spaces, depending on the appliance's intended use.
Our range includes the Super Heat and Super Heat Mini infrared radiant heaters. Both offer a maximum heat output of 4.2kW, with multiple heat settings to suit different heating requirements. The Super Heat Mini has a more compact design, making it worth considering if space is a priority.
When choosing an infrared radiant gas heater, consider the required heat output, dimensions, gas consumption and recommended room size. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions regarding ventilation, room suitability and safe operation.
