Catalytic heaters provide several benefits to the agriculture industry – all related to a specific need for safety and economy when viewed in the context of animal comfort, poor insulation of farm buildings, and the presence of dirt, dust and flammable materials. 

Catalytic heaters are flameless heat sources resulting from the catalyzed chemical reactions that occur while breaking down molecules to produce heat, making them ideal for use in many hazardous environments. Hazardous environments of all kinds cannot risk flames. However, when the catalyst, oxygen, and fuel – such as natural gas or propane – combine, they ignite at low-enough temperatures (below 900°F) that they produce a completely flameless heat.
