From the President: "Who makes your direct gas-fired heaters?"

I've lost count of how many manufacturers now sell direct gas-fired heating equipment. The names change every year as companies get in an out of our business, are bought by larger companies, private label another company's heater or a new HVAC distributor sells unlabeled equipment on the Internet. You could probably find at least 20 companies in a directory somewhere.

Our industry has experienced tremendous growth and change since Cambridge Engineering first pioneered the use of energy efficient, direct gas-fired industrial space heaters over 40 years ago. What hasn't changed is that we are still a family owned and operated company, dedicated to a single goal, "provide you with the best direct gas-fired heaters and technical support in the industry."

One way we accomplish this goal is by designing and manufacturing our own patented, high efficiency burners. This is the most critical component of the heater. However, every other manufacturer of direct gas-fired air equipment uses someone else's burner in their heaters. In fact they often use the lowest cost burner they can find, so their burner vendor may change from year to year.

Patented Cambridge burners are used in both our Space Heating and Make-Up Air Heating product lines. Combined with our Blow-Thru® Space Heater Technology, this is why Cambridge can outperform every other direct gas-fired heater on the market. The all stainless steel burner construction and flame rod also reduces maintenance and extend service life. That's why only a Genuine Cambridge heater comes with the industry's best warranty package of 2 years on the heater and 5 years on the patented Cambridge burner.

If you want the best and if energy efficiency is important, then insist on Genuine Cambridge direct gas-fired heaters!
