Patio heaters from leading manufacturers at discount prices
Patio heaters are very popular for creating warmth in the garden or on the patio, allowing you to extend the time you can spend outdoors. Patio heaters are sometimes referred to as mushroom or umbrella heaters.
Patio heaters generally radiate heat in a circular fashion and create a good spread of heat. A reflector above the burner ensures heat is directed downwards.
Apart from the post type heaters you can also now buy rectangular shaped heaters that can be attached to walls, gazebos and other garden structures.
Gas is the most common form of fuel, although you can now obtain infrared patio heaters that need to be plugged into mains electricity. The gas models have the advantage of being placed anywhere convenient without consideration of being close to a source of electricity. Models powered by electricity also have the disadvantage of needing a cable to be laid to the unit, this may give rise to a tripping hazard, especially if used after dark.
