Outdoor Electric Patio Heaters
Electric patio heaters are among the most fuel-efficient and environmentally friendly methods of warming outdoor spaces. They can convert up to 90% of their energy into radiant heat — compared with the 50% rate typically found in gas heaters — leading to savings over time. This radiant infrared heat safely warms people and objects rather than heating just nearby air, so it can penetrate deeper into open spaces and withstand wind better than standard heaters. Fortunately, the efficient and effective energy that powers outdoor electric heaters doesn’t give off byproducts harmful to the environment. You can even plug these models into an outlet or a dedicated circuit for multiple units, meaning you don’t have to worry about gas safety or deal with the hassle of running fuel lines.
Before purchasing an electric patio heater, decide where you intend to place it and measure the area that needs to be heated. Determining the coverage area will put you on the right path toward finding the model that best fits your needs, whether it’s freestanding or mounted to a wall or ceiling. Once you’ve figured out the placement and style of your outdoor electric heater, you can further customize your heating plans with mounting kit accessories.
