The first loop takes place inside the Heat Assault unit itself. First, the 100% environmentally-friendly heat transfer fluid (HTF) is drawn from the unit’s reservoir and pumped through dual coil heaters (rugged coil piping heated by oil fired burners) to a temperature of 205°F (96°C). Once the HTF is heated, it is returned to the 130 gallon (492 litre) reservoir where it is held prior to phase two of the process. This first loop results in a 600,000 BTU/Hr. generation of heat, making Heat Assault the most powerful bed bug heating equipment on the market. Period.
Heat Assault is the most effective bed bug heating equipment that you can add to your integrated pest management strategy. Only one person is needed to operate the system in most situations and no specialized licensing or training is required, saving you time and money. No matter what industry you’re in, Heat Assault is the right tool for the job.
Heat Assault gets the job done right the first time, every time. The system’s industry leading power quickly reaches “kill zone” temperatures and continues to rise, ensuring the death of all bed bugs and bed bug eggs. One treatment. 100% Success.

Yes! Our eradication methods are not just effective but also safe for your home environment.
No, in fact customers have noticed that the smell from smoke or cooking odors has been eliminated from belongings after a heat treatment.
Our fast and effective treatment process ensures minimal disruption to your daily life.
Yes, it will kill eggs, larvae, pupae, and adult insects so it eliminates the need for a costly return visit to kill the newly hatched insects.
It will kill mold, but will not remove the dead spores that can still be an irritant.
Generally speaking you can treat up to 5,000 square feet of normal residential living space
It is important to turn off fire alarms and disable sprinklers as a precaution but the temperatures reached should not be high enough to set off an alarm or sprinkler. Sprinkler head covers are used to insulate them from the heat.
The process uses warm air to kill the insects. The room and all its contents will be warmed to over 125°F (the kill zone) and as high as 145°F. As a result anything that can be damaged by this heat should be removed. We have a check list which includes: candles, chocolates, pets, plants, medicines, and stringed musical instruments. Everything else should be situated so that the heat can penetrate as quickly as possible. Drawers should be opened, doors to closets opened, furniture moved away from walls, cushions lifted off of couches, mattresses angled up off of box springs, and clothes hung up or spread out so that they are no more than three inches deep.
For a typical application the bed bug heat treatment should take about six to eight hours.
Yes! If you have roaches, mice, ants, or other pests, the heat treatment will kill them too.
No, because the process uses no insecticides or chemicals. The treatment may reduce your allergic reactions because it will also kill mold spores.
Our Heat Assault equipment generates ~600,000 BTU/hour of heat energy. It would require more than eighty (80) electric heaters with 1500 watt capacity, and each of those would require its own 15 amp circuit. A typical home has 200 amp service and an apartment has much less than that. This means that you could only plug in thirteen heaters which will not get the temperatures up into the kill zone fast enough if at all. Our equipment is more than 20X more powerful than a typical furnace for a house!
Our equipment comes with its own generator that provides enough power to operate the electronics on board the system as well as the remote heat exchangers.
