TYPES OF OUTDOOR HEATERS

 

- Radiant Outdoor Heaters: Radiant outdoor heaters use infrared heat to warm up the surrounding air, making them ideal for outdoor spaces with high ceilings or for large gatherings. They emit a warm glow and can reach temperatures of up to 1,500 degrees Fahrenheit. Pros of radiant outdoor heaters include their high heating capacity, efficiency, and low operating costs. However, they require electricity or gas to operate, and their heat can be affected by wind.

 

- Outdoor Infrared Heaters: Outdoor infrared heaters also use infrared heat to warm up the surrounding air, but they emit a softer, more diffuse glow than radiant outdoor heaters. They are ideal for outdoor spaces with low ceilings or for smaller gatherings. Pros of outdoor infrared heaters include their ability to heat people and objects directly, their low operating costs, and their ability to operate on electricity or gas. However, they may not be as efficient as radiant outdoor heaters and their heat can be affected by wind.

 

- Radiant Patio Heaters: Radiant patio heaters are designed specifically for outdoor use and are often used on patios or in outdoor seating areas. They emit heat in a circular pattern, creating a warm, comfortable environment for guests. Pros of radiant patio heaters include their ability to provide a warm, even heat, their low operating costs, and their durability. However, they may require a dedicated gas line or electricity to operate.

 

- Outdoor Bar Heaters: Outdoor bar heaters are designed to provide heat to small, enclosed spaces, such as outdoor bars or dining areas. They emit heat in a circular pattern and are often mounted on a pole or stand. Pros of outdoor bar heaters include their ability to provide targeted heat, their low operating costs, and their ease of use. However, they may not be suitable for larger outdoor spaces.

 

- Wall Mounted Outdoor Heaters: Wall mounted outdoor heaters are designed to be mounted on a wall or ceiling, making them ideal for small outdoor spaces or for spaces where floor space is at a premium. They emit heat in a circular pattern and are often controlled by a remote or thermostat. Pros of wall mounted outdoor heaters include their ease of installation, their low operating costs, and their ability to provide targeted heat. However, they may not be suitable for larger outdoor spaces.

 

- Outdoor Wall Heaters: Outdoor wall heaters are similar to wall mounted outdoor heaters, but they are designed to be permanently mounted on a wall. They emit heat in a circular pattern and are often controlled by a remote or thermostat. Pros of outdoor wall heaters include their ease of installation, their low operating costs, and their ability to provide targeted heat. However, they may not be suitable for larger outdoor spaces.

 

- Outdoor Gas Heaters: Outdoor gas heaters are powered by natural gas or propane and are often used in larger outdoor spaces or commercial settings. They emit heat in a circular pattern and can provide a large amount of heat quickly. Pros of outdoor gas heaters include their high heating capacity, their low operating costs, and their ability to provide heat even in windy conditions. However, they may require professional installation and maintenance.

 

- Outdoor Electric Heaters: Outdoor electric heaters are powered by electricity and are often used in smaller outdoor spaces or residential settings. They emit heat in a circular pattern and are often controlled by a remote or thermostat. Pros of outdoor electric heaters include their ease of use, their low operating costs, and their ability to provide targeted heat. However, they may not be suitable for larger outdoor spaces.

 

 

WHAT TO CONSIDER WHEN CHOOSING AN OUTDOOR HEATER

 

- Heat Output: Consider the amount of heat output that you need based on the size of your outdoor space and the number of people you plan to host.


- Type of Fuel: Consider the type of fuel that you have access to and the cost of operating the outdoor heater.


- Size and Design: Consider the size and design of the outdoor heater, including whether it will fit in your outdoor space and whether it matches your aesthetic preferences.


- Safety Features: Consider the safety features of the outdoor heater, including whether it has an automatic shut-off feature, a protective grill, and is certified by a safety organization in Australia.

 

IS IT SAFE TO USE OUTDOOR HEATERS?

 

When outdoor heaters are installed correctly and equipped with appropriate safety features and guarantees, they can provide safe heating. Before purchasing an outdoor heater, it is essential to consider and evaluate a few factors. By doing so, you can ensure that the heater meets the necessary safety requirements and is suitable for your specific needs.

 

IP Rating - Before buying a new outdoor heater, it's crucial to check if it has the correct IP rating for the intended installation location. The IP rating indicates the level of protection the heater provides against water and solid particles. By verifying that the outdoor heater carries the appropriate IP rating, you can ensure that it is designed to withstand the environmental conditions in which it will be used, protecting against potential damage and ensuring safe operation.

 

Safety Guard - Due to the high temperatures they generate, it is crucial to ensure that outdoor heaters are positioned safely away from children. If you have young children or if your customer base includes families with young children, it is advisable to mount the heaters at a considerable height on the wall or ceiling. This placement helps keep the heaters out of reach and reduces the risk of accidental contact. Additionally, many outdoor heaters are equipped with a protective grill that acts as a barrier, preventing direct access to the hot elements inside the heater. This feature provides an extra layer of protection, ensuring that fingers and hands are kept away from the potentially dangerous heat source.

 

Thermal Cut Off - It is essential that all outdoor heaters are equipped with an integrated safety cutoff device, which serves to protect against potential hazards. This safety feature is designed to automatically cut off the power supply to the heater if it reaches an unsafe level of overheating. By promptly shutting down the heater in such circumstances, the risk of fire, electrical damage, or other accidents is significantly reduced.
