30000 BTU Infrared Propane Heaters

A 30,000 BTU propane heater burns approximately 0.33 gallons of propane per hour at full operation, since one gallon of propane contains roughly 91,500 BTU. Two-stage models like those in the Omega II 9K Series operate at a reduced low-fire stage, which can substantially lower fuel consumption during mild weather, improving overall operating efficiency.

Yes. All Combustion Research Corporation infrared propane heaters are CSA International Design Certified to ANSI/CGA Standards and comply with ANSI Z83.20 / CSA 2.34 where applicable. Each unit features a 3-Try Direct Spark Ignition system with 100% Safety Lockout and electronic flame monitoring, ensuring safe and code-compliant installation.

It depends on the model. Power vented and vacuum fired systems like the Omega II and Reflect-O-Ray series require venting. The Synergy series and Synergy Patio Heater require no direct venting, reducing roof penetrations and installation complexity. This makes the Synergy line ideal for retrofit applications or protected outdoor environments where venting is impractical.

Combustion Research Corporation offers a 10-year warranty on radiant tubes for internally created corrosion across most product lines, along with a 3-year warranty on ignition controls and electrical components on select models such as the Omega II 9K Series. The Synergy series includes a 1-year limited manufacturer's warranty.

Yes. The Synergy Patio Heater and Synergy series are rated for protected outdoor environments with no direct venting required. The Omega II AW PEP series features an All-Weather powder coated housing for outdoor use. Stainless steel burner housing options are available across the Reflect-O-Ray and Omega II lines for corrosive or high-humidity environments such as natatoriums and car wash bays.

All Combustion Research Corporation infrared heaters are available for both Natural Gas (NG) and Liquid Propane (LP) gas operation. Inlet and manifold operating pressures differ between fuel types — LP/Propane requires a minimum inlet pressure of 11 inches WC and a manifold operating pressure of 10 inches WC, while Natural Gas requires 7 inches WC minimum and 6 inches WC manifold pressure.
