Our Sustainability Promise
How we act today protects how we live tomorrow. Tomorrow should be cleaner, safer, and more responsible than yesterday. Because sustainability does not have an endpoint, we are constantly improving our processes to better deliver high-quality products while minimizing environmental impact.
Innovating Responsible Solutions
Heatilator is one of the most widely recognized names in fireplaces. We strive to be recognized for our commitment to the environment too. That's why we are leading the charge to develop products and manufacturing practices that leave a positive imprint on the planet.
Our Sustainable Journey
Energy Conservation
Our goal is to reduce energy intensity by 50% by 2035. Our 2022 savings amounts to 4,395,000 kwh, or the power of 413 average American homes.
Here's how we did it:
- Installed LED lighting throughout HHT manufacturing buildings.
- Installed new energy-efficient air compressors and modifications.
- Implemented air leak minimization program throughout HHT manufacturing buildings.
- Invested in equipment upgrades.
Waste Diversion
Our goal is zero waste to landfill by 2030 in all our plants. By integrating new reclamation methods, including wood recycling and refractory diversion in all our facilities, we are on track to reach that goal.
Innovative Product Solutions
Intermittent Pilot Ignition
98% of our gas fireplaces are manufactured with intermittent pilot ignition (IPI). The IPI feature means you do not need a traditional standing (always on) pilot in your gas fireplace. The pilot lights when you turn on your fireplace, and goes out when you turn your unit off, saving money and fuel and reducing greenhouse gas emissions as compared to a standing pilot ignition system.
Heat Management
Our heat management solutions give you flexibility to heat your home the way it works for you. If you find yourself in a room often, consider turning down your furnace while you enjoy the warmth of your fireplace. Want to redirect the heat to another room? You can do so!
Efficiency
All of our products meet or exceed industry regulations. With efficiencies as high as 99.9%, many of our products also mitigate waste and maximize energy, no matter which fuel option you choose.
Electric Fireplaces
Electric units offer the charm of a fireplace, are affordable to operate, and their use does not negatively impact air quality. With no energy lost and no fumes, emissions, or pollutants, they are an optimal choice for an eco-conscious homeowner desiring a versatile, attractive hearth appliance which can be operated with or without heat.
