As the rest of the propane heater industry zigs, BABFAR zags.

Vapor propane heaters have become temporary heating companies’ preferred offering due to lower costs. However, this is not what is best for the customer.

Construction sites or any other outdoor job sites can be a difficult place to work when the temperature starts to drop. To keep materials and workers safe and warm, you need a temporary heater you can rely on throughout the winter. BABFAR is the Northeast’s heating industry leader, providing various types of temporary heating rental models. Here’s what to know before you choose your next temporary heater.

With 50 years under our belt, it is hard for us to navigate through Boston without going by a building we have heated. From large projects such as the Convention Center and Boston Landing Complex including the Warrior ice arena to One Dalton and The Prudential, we have been the city’s go-to temporary heating company time and time again. The tunnels and bridges that carry you to and from the central Boston have all been heated by BABFAR. Including the Big Dig and Chelsea Street Bridge, our team has always found solutions to projects, big or small.

Ductwork is a critical part of any heating system. When set up correctly, ducts efficiently deliver heat and help maintain positive pressurization which ensures a proper air change.

In our opinion, AC is a luxury item (think tents for summer weddings and special events). It’s not a necessity for construction.
