ABOUT US 

 
We at Reecon strive to produce the highest quality Thermablaster heaters to warm our customers. We 
feel  that  a  heater  should  look  as  good  as  it  operates  and  work  without  a  fuss.  That  is  why  we  have 
developed our patent pending dual fuel heating system, which allows the use of either liquid propane or 
natural gas for some of our most popular products, without requiring any adjustments. Our product lines 
consist of vent free gas wall heaters, a direct vent gas wall heater line, kerosene and propane forced air 
heaters,  electric  industrial  heaters,  fireplace  sets,  as  well  as  outdoor  heating  products.  Through  our 
innovative product design and customer first mentality, we strive to provide the best heaters for all needs, 
at a price that won’t break the bank.
