Winter weather doesn’t have to put your restaurant’s outdoor patio or rooftop dining on hiatus until the warmer months. Adding design-friendly Infratech heaters can offer your guests more seating options while helping you get more nights of use from your outdoor dining areas. Our heaters keep outdoor seating open, which can help lead to a boost in sales.

Todd Stabelfeldt is a quadriplegic entrepreneur, digital tech guru, and community advocate. When he and his wife Karen couldn’t find a home in their price point that they could easily retrofit for increased accessibility and aging in place, they decided to design and build on their own. To meet their current and future needs, the pair implemented a wide range of smart home tech that Todd can operate using just his voice, making independence and accessibility at home a reality.   After they added a covered outdoor living space to the property, Todd and Karen discovered Infratech and our Universal Control Panel, a voice-activated system that allows users to control their outdoor heating through devices like Siri. We spoke with Karen about the devices and apps that they’ve found best meet their needs, why they’re now Infratech fans, and how smart home tech is opening doors for families where accessibility matters.
