Bromic Heating

Bromic Heating in Las Vegas

Las Vegas has a winter. It is short and the days are pleasant, but from November to March the evening temperature drops fast after sunset, and an outdoor kitchen without heat gets used for lunch. Bromic exists to fix that: Australian-designed radiant heaters, gas and electric, that mount to a ceiling, a wall or a pole and heat the people rather than the air. A properly specified Bromic installation turns a patio from a seven-month space into a twelve-month one.

We carry 46 active Bromic products: the heaters themselves across four lines, the mounts and recess kits that install them, the heat deflectors a covered patio needs, and the Affinity controllers that run them.

The Bromic lines

Platinum

The flagship. Platinum Smart-Heat gas and electric, plus a Marine electric version for corrosive environments. The gas Platinum is the heater for an open or high-ceilinged patio where output matters most; the electric is for lower clearances and enclosed spaces.

Tungsten

Bromic's workhorse, in gas, electric and freestanding versions. The Tungsten gas heater with its heat deflector is what we specify most often for a covered outdoor kitchen, and the freestanding is for anyone who wants to move the heat around the yard.

Eclipse

Electric heat combined with a light, as a pendant on a straight or curved ceiling pole or as a freestanding unit. The one for a dining area where the heater is in view and should look like a fixture rather than equipment.

Cobalt

A compact electric heater for tighter spaces and lower clearances.

Gas or electric?

Gas heaters produce more heat for the money and suit open patios and high ceilings, but need the clearances and a gas line. Electric heaters install closer to the ceiling, run silently with no combustion, and suit covered patios, enclosed rooms and anywhere the mounting height is limited — but need a dedicated circuit. Most of the installations we do in Las Vegas are a mix: gas over the open seating, electric under the cover. Getting that split right is the design job.

Installation and control

• Mounts — ceiling pole mounts for every line, straight and curved poles for the Eclipse, and wall mounting.
• Recess kits — standard and low-clearance kits that let a Platinum sit flush in a ceiling, including the Marine version.
• Heat deflectors — for the Platinum and Tungsten gas heaters. Required under a ceiling, and the single most commonly skipped component in a DIY installation.
• Affinity controllers — on/off, dimmer and Eclipse controllers plus an expansion board, so the heaters run from a wall switch or a smart-home system rather than a pull chain.

Buying Bromic in Las Vegas

Patio heaters are a clearance and load calculation before they are a product choice: distance to the ceiling, to combustible materials and to the people below, gas line capacity or circuit load, and how the heaters are switched. As a licensed Nevada contractor we handle that as part of a complete outdoor kitchen or as a standalone heating installation, and the heaters are on display at our S Fort Apache showroom. We also carry Infratech electric heaters if a comparison helps.
