EGI-Mr. Heater Acquires CFM Corp. Assets

Enerco Group Inc. (EGI; Cleveland, Ohio), through its Mr. Heater subsidiary, confirmed in early August that it has acquired specific assets of CFM Corp. (Ontario, Canada). The acquisition includes certifications, brand names, and tooling for three CFM product lines: Dyna-Glo Tag-A-Long indoor-safe portable heaters, Legacy vent-free wall-mount blue flame and infrared heaters, and a full line of propane tank-top outdoor radiant heaters.

EGI manufactures portable and installed gas-fired radiant and convection heating products for commercial, industrial, and consumer applications, while Mr. Heater and Heatstar by Enerco provide heating comfort solutions for residential, camping, garage, workshop, and construction use.

“We viewed the purchase of these CFM assets as an opportunity to strengthen Mr. Heater’s position as a leading manufacturer of portable residential, recreational, and commercial heating products,” said EGI’s president and COO Jeff Mack. “Our plan is to continue supporting CFM’s relationships with retailers and assimilate CFM’s technologies into the Mr. Heater line.”

The assets purchase resulted from the announcement of CFM’s filing for bankruptcy in April. Mr. Heater has already started integrating CFM’s product lines into its extensive offering of portable heaters and accessories. Retail buyers who have questions about their present CFM Dyna-Glo, Legacy, and tank-top heater lines should contact EGI-Mr. Heater at 800/251-0001.
