All our products are meticulously designed and built in our state-of-the-art factory located in West Yorkshire. We maintain a full inventory of spare parts and offer a return-to-base repair and servicing facility, ensuring that our customers receive the best possible support and service.

We are particularly proud of our greenhouse heaters and are dedicated to helping you get the most out of yours. That’s why we provide servicing and repairs for all our own gas and electric heaters, made here at Hotbox Heaters. To ensure your greenhouse heater operates smoothly year-round, we recommend giving it some annual TLC. Conducting maintenance before the cold weather sets in is crucial to prevent any unexpected failures.
