Eric the Heater GuyWhen a patio is exposed or the jurisdiction is strict, SunStar is often the only right answer. No open flame, serious wind rating, and infrared efficiency. We spec it wherever conditions demand it.

SunStar: wind-proof infrared
SunStar's SGL series answers the two questions that kill commercial heater deals: 'what about wind?' (rated to 40 mph) and 'what will the fire marshal say?' (enclosed burner, no open flame).

Common questions
Why does 'no open flame' matter?
Some jurisdictions and insurers treat open-flame heaters differently. An enclosed burner removes the objection before it's raised.
How does it handle coastal wind?
Rated to 40 mph — that's the spec that matters on exposed patios. Coverage drops in wind, so we size accordingly.
Gas or electric?
The SGL series is gas-fired infrared. We'll confirm fuel against your infrastructure.
