Patio Heaters for Any Occasion

Patio Heaters Explained

If you've spent time and money on your outdoor space, you probably want to make the most of it all year round. That's where patio heaters come in handy. Whether you live in a warm or cold climate, these heaters can help you enjoy your patio longer by adding warmth when you need it most.

Patio heaters don't aim to heat an entire area to a specific temperature, but rather to reduce the chill of the air around you. They work similarly to a campfire, offering consistent heat without smoke or ash.

There are two main types of patio heaters:

• Burn fuel such as natural gas or propane;
• Use electricity to generate heat.

The heat is then directed using reflective materials to focus warmth on a specific area. Unlike space heaters that blow hot air, patio heaters use radiant heat, which warms objects directly instead of just heating the air around them.

This makes them more efficient for outdoor use, as blowing hot air into an open space would only result in quick heat loss.

Fuel Options for Patio Heaters

Propane

Propane is the most common fuel used for patio heaters. It comes in portable tanks, making it easy to place your heater anywhere. Propane heaters usually have an ignition switch that doesn’t require electricity—just turn the knob or press the button to light the flame.

Electricity

Electric patio heaters are simple to use—just plug them in and turn them on. However, they typically provide less heat than gas models, so they're best suited for small spaces or mild weather.

Natural Gas

If you have a natural gas line outside, you can connect a gas-powered patio heater directly to it. A professional should handle the installation for safety. These heaters also use an ignition switch that works without electricity.

Types of Patio Heaters

Free-standing or Floor Models

These are the most popular and versatile type of patio heater. Most use propane, though some are powered by natural gas or electricity. They typically consist of four parts:

• Base: Keeps the unit stable and may include storage for a propane tank.
• Pole: Elevates the heat source for better coverage.
• Heat Source: Measured in BTUs (British Thermal Units), with higher BTU ratings producing more heat.
• Reflector: Directs heat downward and outward, improving efficiency.

Tabletop Heaters

Smaller and more compact, tabletop heaters are perfect for warming a specific spot on your patio table. They usually offer lower BTU output and are ideal for smaller areas. They can be powered by either electricity or propane.

Wall-Mounted Heaters

Wall-mounted heaters save space and keep the walkway clear. They are often electric and use infrared heat to keep your outdoor area comfortable. Many models allow you to adjust the angle for optimal heat direction.

Whether you’re hosting guests or simply enjoying a quiet evening outdoors, a patio heater can transform your space into a cozy retreat. Invest in one today and extend your outdoor season!
