What Kalglo Electronics Co Inc does

Kalglo Manufacturing, Inc. (doing business as Kalglo) is a privately held, family-owned American manufacturer of electric infrared heaters, founded in 1969 and headquartered at 2010 Sunset Drive, Fogelsville, Pennsylvania. The company designs and builds two primary product series—the RS Series premium heater with built-in intensity control ($394.99-$544.99) and the HS Series economical heater ($309.99-$424.99)—both available in 35" and 65" lengths at 120V or 240V and engineered around proprietary Incoloy metal sheath heating elements housed in rust-resistant aluminum with powder-coated finishes. The HS Series is UL Listed for safety, and the metal sheath construction includes automatic shutoff on element break, addressing fire-risk concerns in barns and other flammable environments.

The firm's commercial offering is anchored by these two heater lines, complemented by a structured accessories portfolio (wall mounting brackets $85-$95, protective grill guards $55-$90, wall-mounted intensity controls $95, PECO thermostats $120) and a full replacement-parts aftermarket (heating elements $52.50-$73.50, end assemblies $65-$75, cords $27.50-$32.50, reflectors $18-$30), the latter generating an installed-base annuity tied to the 2-5 year element lifespan. Pricing across the catalog is one-time/perpetual license with optional extended warranty add-ons (+$60 for 2 years, +$120 for 5 years on the HS Series); there is no subscription, software, or recurring billing component.

Kalglo operates a direct-to-consumer go-to-market through its own e-commerce storefront at kalglo.com, with shipping via UPS, FedEx, or USPS from its Fogelsville factory and a 30-day return policy administered via RGA. Marketing is conducted through its website, an email newsletter, blog content, customer testimonials, and analytics integrations with Google Analytics, Meta Pixel, and Klaviyo. The primary customer segment is Agriculture & Livestock (horse stalls, barns, livestock warming), with secondary exposure to Hospitality & Outdoor Dining, Garage/Shop, and Fitness Studio use cases. The firm has 1-10 employees, no disclosed revenue, no funding rounds, no institutional investors, no parent company, no international footprint, and no app, API, or AI/ML capability.

Direct peers

• Heat Storm: Sells infrared space heaters (wall-mounted and portable) primarily through DTC channels — competing in the same product category and price band as Kalglo's RS and HS series.
• Dr. Infrared Heater: Brands and sells portable and space infrared heaters (DR-988, DR-999) directly to consumers and commercial buyers — direct product overlap with Kalglo's infrared space-heating lineup, though more consumer and SMB-weighted.
• Cozy Products: Designs and sells energy-efficient infrared and convection heating products for residential and commercial spaces, with comparable price points and a similar small-batch direct-to-consumer model.
• Mr. Heater: Sells portable and fixed heating products (propane and electric infrared) for construction, agricultural, and outdoor applications — directly comparable end-use cases in barn, garage, and outdoor settings.
• Comfort Glow: Sells electric and infrared heaters, including wall-mounted and portable space heaters across consumer and small commercial channels — overlapping product mix with Kalglo's HS/RS series.

Others

• Duraflame: Major brand in electric fireplaces and complementary heating products; relevant as a high-recognition adjacent competitor that captures consumer heating mind-share in retail channels Kalglo does not serve.

Broad incumbents

• Cadet Heat: Long-established U.S. manufacturer of electric heaters (wall heaters, baseboards, fan-forced) for residential and light-commercial use — comparable on heating-equipment manufacturing though a broader category than infrared.
• King Electric: Established manufacturer of electric heating products (including radiant/infrared heaters, baseboard, and unit heaters) for residential and commercial applications — a broader incumbent competing in the same category with greater scale.
• TPI Corporation: Large U.S. manufacturer of commercial and industrial heating, ventilation, and lighting products including infrared/radiant heaters — comparable on the commercial/industrial heater side of Kalglo's business.
• Dimplex: Global manufacturer of electric heating solutions and fireplaces; competes in the radiant/infrared category with a much broader portfolio across consumer and commercial channels.
