Buyer Guide For Patio Heaters
A patio heater can extend your outdoor living space’s usability throughout cooler seasons. When shopping for a patio heater, consider several key factors: fuel type (propane, natural gas, or electric), heating capacity (measured in BTUs), coverage area, and mobility. Propane heaters offer portability but require tank replacements, while natural gas units provide consistent fuel supply but need professional installation. Electric heaters are easy to use and environmentally friendly but may have higher operating costs.Look for safety features like automatic shut-off and tip-over protection, and ensure the unit is weather-resistant. Consider the size of your outdoor space to determine the appropriate heating power  typically, 40,000 BTUs can heat a 20-foot diameter area. Also, check for warranty coverage and verify that the model complies with local regulations before making your purchase.

How to Maintain Patio Heaters
