Best seller patio heaters to warm your heart
May
So how warm and cosy is your patio lifestyle? If you find yourself shivering outdoors, loving it out there but a bit too chilly for comfort, you need one of our best seller patio heaters. They come in all sorts of exciting designs, some big enough for commercial use as well as the patio at home, others smaller but just as powerful. Feast your eyes on these, then head over to our mighty fine patio heater collection to make your choice.
Best seller patio heaters heaven!
What’s the idea behind the tech? Basically, you’re looking at a stylish natural gas burner on top of a pole, usually fired with a bottle of easily-available portable LPG (liquefied petroleum gas), propane or butane, the kind of thing people use to power camping stoves and portable domestic gas heaters.
The flames burn against a perforated metal screen, which then radiates warmth from its surface in a circular pattern to deliver 360 degree heat. Because heat naturally rises the specially designed silvered reflector on top of the burner, a bit like a metal umbrella, sends the powerful infrared radiation back downwards, being terrible at absorbing heat but excellent at reflecting it to keep people toasty.
The system itself is actually pretty basic, leaving plenty of opportunity for creative people to design unusual attractive and highly effective best seller patio heaters in a multitude of styles, from traditional-looking to the ultimate in contemporary.
Because safety has to come first where gas is concerned, the gas bottles themselves stand neatly inside the body of all of our models, not just out of the way, preventing a trip hazard, but also lending extra weight and heft to the base to keep the whole thing even more stable. No gas hoses for your guests to trip on, no danger of tipping the gas cannister over. The large models have room for a good, big gas cylinder for longer, later outdoor fun with no faffing about changing gas bottles – ideal when you’ve had a few drinks!
If the tall styles aren’t suitable for your garden for whatever reason, we have the stunning award-winning NOVA LED patio heater, which comes in black or grey, offers chunky, super-simple good looks, and delivers impressive amounts of heat at a lower level. Stand a few of them around your entertainment area to mark it out, keep people safe, and create the appearance of an intimate outdoor room after dark.
The cylinder design above features a gorgeous glass tube where the flame flickers inside, super-safe and a wonderful look, especially after dusk.
The model above has a generous sized circular glass platform at a convenient height to stand your drinks, snacks and gadgets. You can either stand it alone to gather around or make it the central feature of your garden dining or lounging set, as attractive to people as moths to a flame. The ancient appeal of real fire never dies, even when set into a totally modern gadget like this. You’ll still feel the magic attraction of the flickering glow.
There’s also a choice of wattage. For a smaller area choose a patio heater with medium heat, maybe 8kW to 11kW. For a large area go for one of the monster-sized versions we stock that give off an impressive 13kW or 15kW, popular with pubs and restaurants to keep punters cosy outdoors as well as a delight in a domestic garden setting.
You can even go really wee with a specially-designed tabletop patio heater, just the ticket for intimate gatherings around a garden dining set. The tech and basic design are the same as the full-size versions, just as efficient but smaller.
Imagine lounging in your uber-cosy swing chair, warmed to perfection by the beautiful silvery patio heater above with a glass or cup of something tasty, a good book or your phone. Heavenly.
This cool flame shelf upgrade turns an Enders patio heater into a handy place to stand bottles and glasses, one of those simple ideas that makes a surprisingly big difference to alfresco life.
There’s more to patio heating than these, of course. A simple clay or metal chiminea also makes an excellent patio heater. Clay Mexican chimeneas have been perfected over centuries, made by master potters to a specific design with all-important high performance proportions. Metal versions are equally efficient, either in traditional style or with fresh contemporary looks like this one.
As you can see there are many ways to heat a patio. Whether you pick a patio heater, chimenea or fire pit, it’ll make your garden life so much more fun!
