Challenge

As part of a recent patio remodel, Anaheim Hills Golf Club sought to create a welcoming space for guests to relax and enjoy the stunning views while dining or socializing. However, cooler weather posed a challenge, limiting the patio’s usability and potentially impacting guest satisfaction and revenue. To maintain its reputation as a premier golf destination, the club needed a reliable heating solution that seamlessly integrates with the newly upgraded patio’s high-end aesthetic.

Solution

Anaheim Hills Golf Club turned to Infratech Electric Heaters for innovative and visually appealing heating solutions. Director of Food and Beverage Brian P. led the project, guided by recommendations from hospitality colleagues. Infratech’s heaters were chosen for their sleek design, energy efficiency, unique color options, and superior performance—qualities that align perfectly with the club’s commitment to quality and elegance. The club selected 13 WD4027 in bronze for their powerful heating capabilities and ability to cover large areas effectively. The club’s contractors ensured the heaters were seamlessly integrated into the patio’s design. Strategic placement ensured the heaters met safety and design requirements while maintaining a modern look. The patio remodel also included significant investments in expanding and upgrading the outdoor space. Brian P. States, “The view is a big deal for us, which is why we invested in heaters, furniture, and extending the club deck by 20 feet.” This expansion has created a spacious and comfortable environment for guests. The upgraded patio now accommodates an additional one hundred seats, offering ample room for dining and socializing while enjoying the breathtaking views.

These upgrades set Anaheim Hills Golf Club apart from other golf courses in the area, showcasing its commitment to community investment and guest satisfaction.

Investing in custom-colored heaters was another thoughtful choice that aligned with the patio’s design. Brian P. noted that the ability to select a color that matched the club’s aesthetic was a game-changer: “If we were stuck with just black or stainless steel, we might not have moved forward with the project. This is why we decided to go with Infratech Heaters.” This attention to detail underscores the club’s dedication to providing guests with a cohesive and visually appealing environment.
