We have put together the below handy guide to choosing electric vs a gas patio heater.

Freestanding Electric patio Heaters

Electric patio heater freestanding devices have the apparent benefit of being used both inside and outdoors instead of gas patio heaters. Only well-ventilated outdoor spaces are ideal for gas heating. Another compelling incentive to go electric is the following:

1.    A lower cost

Infrared technology is used to create heat in electric patio heaters. Making it easier for you to keep track of your power use. If you need to heat a space regularly or for an extended length of time, a standalone infrared heater is typically a better value. Because it is portable, you can use it anywhere you want.

2.    A rapid increase in temperature

Electric heaters provide heat in the same way the sun does. Electromagnetic waves are sent directly to persons or things in their path, where they are immediately transformed into heat when they meet them. As a result, consumers appreciate the convenience of a self-contained electric model since they do not have to wait for it to start.

Freestanding gas patio heaters

Traditional outdoor heat sources include freestanding gas heaters. They are still a popular addition to private gardens, barbeque, and public smoking areas because of their cozy flames.

1.    More atmospheric

Adding atmospheric Gas to an outdoor location not only makes it more comfortable, but it is also more dramatic and aesthetically pleasing than infrared.

2.    Cable-free

A gas-powered standalone heater does not have to be near an electrical outlet. It may be used near or far away from any permanent building or structure. Gas heaters, which come with a self-contained fuel canister, may be used wherever there is a power source.

3.    Unselfish convenience

With a skin-tingling heat halo covering a wide area, gas heaters are an excellent choice for combating a frigid nighttime cold. When using a gas burner, you do not have to be right next to it as you would with a freestanding electric heater (which radiates heat in a straight line).

4.    Models that are very light in weight

Our floor-standing heaters are ideal for the office since they are compact and lightweight. Flexible or transitory work conditions like construction sites or contract locations make this a great choice.

5.    Models on wheels with built-in stands
