Step 1: Choose the right type of patio heater

Electric patio heaters are particularly suitable for use under a canopy. Consider:

• Hanging patio heater – such as the Heatix Hanging Black 1500 Watt .

• Wall patio heater – for example the Eurom Golden 2500 Shadow patio heater .

• Smart wall-mounted heaters – such as the Heatix 2500W smart wall heater .

A gas patio heater is less suitable for a closed space, as this requires good ventilation.

Step 2: Take distance and safety into account

A patio heater produces both heat and radiation. Therefore, the correct distance is important:

• Minimum distance of 50 cm to the ceiling or parasol cloth.

• Approximately 1.8 – 2.5 meters high for optimal heat distribution.

• Make sure the heater is securely attached to beams or walls.

Always use the supplied mounting brackets or hanging systems.

Step 3: Connection and power consumption

An electric heater cover requires the correct connection.

• A 1500 Watt patio heater uses approximately 6.5 Amps.

• A 2500 Watt patio heater uses approximately 11 Amps.

Check whether your distribution box can handle this and prevent overload.

Step 4: Protect your patio heater

Use a patio heater cover to protect your heater from moisture, dust, and dirt. This will extend the life of your device and maintain optimal heat output.
