The choice depends on where you want to use the heater.

• On an open patio? Then a standing electric patio heater or gas patio heater is perfect.

• For small spaces, such as a balcony, a hanging patio heater is ideal. For example, check out the Heatix Hanging Black 1500 Watt .

2. Pay attention to the wattage

The power of a patio heater determines the heat intensity.

• 1500 Watt is suitable for small terraces or balconies.

4. Protect your heater with a cover

A patio heater cover significantly extends the lifespan of your device. Especially when used outdoors without a canopy, the cover protects against moisture, dust, and cold.
