About Enerco Technical Products
Enerco Technical Products, Inc. is a Cleveland, Ohio-based manufacturer that has been at the forefront of infrared combustion technology since 1957. What began as a licensing of infrared heating technology from Schwank GmbH has evolved into one of North America's most recognized heating companies, with decades of engineering expertise spanning consumer, commercial, and industrial applications.
A Legacy of Innovation in Portable Heat
Enerco is perhaps best known to consumers through its flagship retail brand, Mr. Heater, which launched in 1986 and quickly became America's most popular portable heater brand. The Mr. Heater line spans everything from compact Tank Top heaters to the iconic patented Buddy Heater series — a product that fundamentally changed the indoor/outdoor portable heating market when it debuted in 2000. For professionals on construction sites and in rental fleets, the Mr. Heater Contractor Series of forced-air propane and kerosene heaters has become an industry benchmark for dependability and rugged performance.
In 2011, Enerco introduced the world's first cordless forced-air propane heater — the HERO — featuring its proprietary Quiet Burner Technology®. That same year, the company expanded into the outdoor recreation market with its BaseCamp brand of camping products, reflecting the versatility of Enerco's infrared combustion expertise across different lifestyles and environments.
The Heatstar Brand: Built for Professionals
Under the Heatstar by Enerco banner, the company addresses the serious demands of construction sites, rental dealers, warehouses, loading docks, and commercial facilities throughout the United States and Canada. Heatstar's portable job-site heaters are engineered for maximum durability, while its permanently installed radiant tube and overhead heaters — assembled in Cleveland, Ohio — are rated up to 400,000 BTUs for large commercial and industrial spaces. Whether heating a pole barn, a factory floor, or an outdoor patio dining area, Heatstar has become the go-to solution for professionals who need reliable, heavy-duty heat.
Industrial & OEM Solutions
Beyond consumer and professional products, Enerco's Technical Products Division engineers and manufactures custom burners and heating systems for OEM partners. These solutions serve a remarkably broad range of industries — from food service equipment to welding processes to rail car thawing — underscoring Enerco's depth of combustion engineering knowledge.
Trusted Partnerships and American Manufacturing
In 2013, Enerco partnered with Stanley Black & Decker to manufacture and market portable heating products under the DEWALT and Craftsman names, bringing its proven heater technology to two of the most recognized tool brands in the world. With over 110,000 square feet of warehouse space at its Cleveland headquarters and an additional distribution center in Bedford, Ohio, Enerco is built to serve both the professional trades and everyday consumers at scale. All of this reflects a company whose engineering heritage runs deep and whose commitment to quality heat — wherever it's needed — has never wavered.
