Catalytic Heater Company, CATCO, has been in business since 1982 and operates out of a 21,000 square foot facility just outside of Dallas, Texas. The company manufactures catalytic heaters and related products for industrial applications.
Using catalytic technology, propane, natural gas or other hydrocarbon gas is converted to flameless infrared heat. Because they operate at a relatively low temperature (approximately 800° F), they are often used in hazardous or potentially hazardous environments. The heaters that are certified by Canadian Standards Association and by Factory Mutual.
A number of heater sizes are available, from 1,500 to 60,000 btus.
