About us

Alfresco Heating provides consultative sales, expert installations, and warm service of patio heaters in the San Francisco Bay Area. We currently have three employees, in addition to subcontractors for specialized jobs. We carry a California Contractors License class C-36 #870395. Installation costs can vary widely. It is helpful to have a free initial phone consultation to discuss the space you wish to heat, your budget, and gas / electric availability to the site. On-site consults are $150, and that fee is applicable towards installation / purchase packages of $2500. Have your own contractor? No problem. We are happy to advise and provide the appropriate heaters for your application. Service Rates are $95 per heater on the major brands we support, plus parts. We currently sell install and service Infrared Dynamics, AEI, SunGlo, SunPak, Infratech, Patio Comfort, DCS, and Twin Eagles radiant patio heaters. The service (trip) charge can vary depending on your location from $100 to $150. We also do repairs in our shop (which do not require a service charge). Angies's List members can have a 12% discount off our already discounted website pricing on Infrared Dynamics SunGlo SunPak and Infratech heaters plus free shipping. Use coupon code "Angie" on checkout. Eric Kahn started The Cooks' Line in 1996, but found joy in working outside on patio heaters and began doing business as Alfresco Heating in 2003. His company, has since installed many hundreds of patio heaters, and repaired thousands. Alfresco Heating employees are radiant and friendly people and would love to help warm your outdoor-living space. Save money with NO SALES TAX on all online orders. Use coupon code: no tax.

Outstanding. Randy and team were extremely knowledgeable, professional, and friendly. I had a lot of questions throughout the process and Randy always calmly went through all the options and tradeoffs. He also provided numerous quotes of the various configurations until I finalized what worked best for me in terms of pricing and deliverables. The Alfresco team had to coordinate their timing with a few other vendors that were doing other parts of the project. They were always flexible and went out of their way to get the job done in the time frames needed.
Description of Work: Randy and team at Alfresco setup our whole new backyard living space in terms of heat lamps and overall gas lines. The project included purchasing, delivering, and installing a SunGlo natural gas patio heater (which Randy helped me upgrade to include a Kindle Living designer package) as well as providing gas lines to a 6'x6' fire pit, a new natural gas grill, and for future expansion ideas.

I purchased outdoor heaters from Alfresco online on a Saturday, but their Angie's List coupon would not be accepted on their site. I emailed them about that, and they responded on Sunday and followed up on Monday. Their coupon had expired, but since it was still on their listing, they honored the coupon without any hassles. My order was shipped and arrived the same week. Their service is outstanding.
Description of Work: Provided outdoor heaters.
