Infratech C26 C Series Single Element 2600W Infrared Electric Patio Heater
Free Standard Shipping
Description
The Infratech C26 from the C Series is a single element infrared electric patio heater engineered for covered outdoor spaces that require stronger, more expansive directional heat. With a 2600 watt output, the C26 delivers noticeably broader coverage than smaller models while maintaining a clean, architectural profile that integrates seamlessly into refined outdoor environments.
Made in the USA from durable stainless steel, the C26 is designed for long term performance in both residential and commercial settings. Multiple voltage options, a wide range of finish choices, and flexible mounting configurations allow this heater to adapt to a variety of layouts, from covered patios and pergolas to outdoor dining and seating areas.
For coastal, high humidity, or salt air environments, this model is available in a Marine Grade 316 stainless steel construction. Standard models use corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel. The 316 upgrade provides enhanced protection against saltwater exposure and harsh environmental conditions.
Like all Infratech heaters, the C26 provides focused radiant heat rather than ambient air heating. Proper mounting height, aiming angle, and control selection are essential to achieve optimal comfort and efficiency.
Need a custom solution?
In addition to the standard finish options listed, custom color selections may be available upon request. Contact our TTH Concierge team to discuss custom powder coat options and project-specific requirements.
We also offer a complimentary heat layout design service through Infratech. Our team can evaluate your patio dimensions, mounting heights, and usage goals to recommend optimal heater placement and the most effective configuration for your space.

FAQ
DO I NEED TO PURCHASE CONTROLS SEPARATELY?
Yes. All Infratech C Series heaters require a compatible control to operate. Controls are selected based on your heater configuration, electrical setup, and desired functionality. Options range from simple on/off switches to advanced smart home integrations. If you are unsure which control is right for your space, our TTH Concierge team can assist.
WHICH CONTROL OPTION IS BEST FOR MOST HOMEOWNERS?
Most residential installations use a basic on/off switch or an input regulator. Larger patios or multi-heater layouts often benefit from custom control panels. Smart controls are recommended for homes with existing smart home systems or when app-based control is desired.
WHAT VOLTAGE SHOULD I CHOOSE?
Voltage must match your existing electrical supply. C Series heaters are available in multiple voltage configurations depending on model, including residential and commercial options. Always confirm voltage requirements with a licensed electrician prior to ordering.
CAN THIS HEATER BE USED INDOORS?
Yes. Infratech C Series heaters are UL listed for both indoor and outdoor use when installed according to manufacturer guidelines and local building codes.
HOW MUCH AREA DOES THE C SERIES HEAT?
Heat coverage depends on the specific model, wattage, and mounting height. C Series heaters are designed to provide focused, directional warmth rather than ambient heating. Multiple heaters may be required for larger spaces or open layouts.
WHAT IS THE RECOMMENDED MOUNTING HEIGHT?
Recommended mounting height varies by model but generally ranges from 6 to 10 feet. Each product page lists the optimal mounting height for that specific heater.
CAN THE HEATER BE MOUNTED ON A WALL OR CEILING?
Yes. C Series heaters can be wall mounted or ceiling mounted. Mounting brackets are included. If a flush mount installation is required, Infratech W or WD Series heaters are the appropriate solution.
IS THE HEATER WEATHER RESISTANT?
Yes. Infratech C Series heaters are rated IPX4 and are suitable for covered outdoor installations. They are designed to withstand typical outdoor conditions when installed properly.
WHAT FINISH OPTIONS ARE AVAILABLE?
C Series heaters are available in stainless steel and a range of standard powder-coated finishes including white, biscuit, almond, beige, bronze, black, grey, and copper.
ARE ALL FINISHES RETURNABLE?
Powder-coated finishes are non-returnable. Stainless steel finishes may be subject to standard return guidelines. Please review our Return & Refund Policy prior to ordering.
WHAT IS THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN STAINLESS STEEL AND MARINE GRADE?
Standard models are constructed from corrosion-resistant 304 stainless steel. Marine grade upgrades use 316 stainless steel, which provides enhanced protection in coastal, humid, or harsh environments.
IS PROFESSIONAL INSTALLATION REQUIRED?
Installation should be performed by a qualified electrician. Proper electrical planning and mounting height are critical for safety and performance.
WHERE ARE INFRATECH HEATERS MADE?
