Choosing Your Options
Gas type: select Natural Gas (NG) if you have a fixed gas line, or Propane (LPG) if you’ll run the heater from a propane tank or supply.
Controls & Options
Gas heaters operate on/off only (non-dimmable) and require a control to operate — select one using the Control Type option above: a simple manual switch kit, or the Affinity Smart-Heat On/Off controller for full app control, scheduling and timers via Wi-Fi or Bluetooth (it supports up to 10 gas heaters per channel, so one controller can run a whole multi-heater install).
Installing under a low ceiling or covered structure? Add the heat deflector — it reduces the required clearance above the heater to just 14″ (350mm) and redirects escaping heat back down into your space. Ceiling installations also require a Bromic ceiling mount pole (six lengths, sold separately — contact us and we’ll size it to your ceiling height).
Important: gas heaters must be installed by a licensed gas technician in accordance with local codes.
Please note: Price shown is for the heater only — installation is not included. Contact Canadian Shade at (647) 999-5043 or info@canadianshade.ca for a complete quote including professional installation by our certified team.
