Seven-heater restaurant patio, dead on arrival

Challenge: An active restaurant patio with seven commercial heaters — several dead, the rest underperforming, and dinner service on the line.

Solution: Full electrical troubleshooting, targeted parts replacement, and re-spec'ing the weak units for the patio's actual layout.

Result: All seven heaters back online and heating evenly — the patio stayed open through the cold months.

Service

Aging fleet, one visit before peak season

Challenge: An existing fleet of commercial heaters with no maintenance history heading into the busiest — and coldest — part of the year.

Solution: Seasonal inspection across every unit: ignition, gas supply, flame quality, and controls — with failing parts replaced on the spot.

Result: Zero mid-season failures. The operator now runs a standing pre-season service visit.

Upscale event, heat as a service

Challenge: A venue needed statement heating for a high-end event — great-looking, properly placed, zero hassle for the event team.

Solution: Designer rental units delivered, positioned for the layout, fueled, and tested before guests arrived.

Result: Warm guests all night, equipment picked up the next day. The venue now calls for seasonal dates.
