SunStar Heaters

SunStar heaters are overhead gas-fired infrared units designed and built by SunStar Heating Products in Charlotte, North Carolina. Each one has a tinted glass face that shields the ceramic burner from wind up to 40 MPH, plus two-stage High and Low output. Pick a black SGL model or a 316 stainless MGL marine grade model, in natural gas or propane.

Choosing Your SunStar Heating Model

Standard, black

SGL35

35,000 BTU on High and 24,000 on Low. Warms about 144 sq. ft. in light wind and mounts 7 to 10 ft. high. The right fit for most home and commercial patios.

High output, black

SGL50

50,000 on High and 35,000 on Low, 43% more than the SGL35. Mounts 8 to 11 ft. high, for larger open patios, taller ceilings and colder climates.

Marine grade

MGL35

The same output as the SGL35 in 316 stainless steel, designed for coastal, poolside and saltwater sites.

Mounting Kit, Heat Shield and Remote Options

All SunStar heaters here come as a package with a 3-position High, Low and Off switch. Then pick the mount and extras that suit your space.

Adjustable mounting kit

A 15 to 30 in. arm that angles from 15 to 60 degrees and fits walls, ceilings or beams. Good for aiming warmth right at a seating area.

Heat shield with fixed mount

Cuts the clearance above the heater to as little as 10 in., for low ceilings and tight overhead space.

Wireless remote

Remote packages add a handheld remote, so you can switch between High and Low without walking to the wall switch.

SunStar Parts and Controls

Already own one? The switch with a 60-minute timer (610550) shuts the heater off on its own, which helps when staff run commercial heaters on a busy patio. We also stock black and stainless mounting kits, and SunStar heater replacement parts like the 3-position switch kit (147010).

Energy Efficiency and Installation

Two-stage output saves fuel: start on High to warm the space, then drop to Low once everyone is comfortable. Infrared heaters warm people, tables and floors directly instead of the air. Each unit needs a gas line plus a standard 120V connection for the electronic ignition, with no low-voltage transformer. Read our clearance guide and the manual for your model before you order.
