Why patio heating is so popular in Amsterdam

Do you live in Amsterdam-Noord, Oud-Zuid, the Jordaan, or perhaps IJburg? Then you probably know that outdoor spaces here are often compact and heavily affected by wind. Infrared patio heaters and freestanding electric models are therefore particularly popular.

This is what makes them so suitable for Amsterdam homes:

• Perfect for balcony heating with targeted, compact warmth
• Ideal under a canopy or on a roof terrace
• No hassle with gas bottles in narrow streets or apartments
• Energy-efficient models available from brands like Eurom, Heatix, and Sunred

Cost per hour in Amsterdam

With Amsterdam electricity rates, you pay an average of:

• 1500W heater: €0.40 - €0.55 per hour
• 2000-2500W heater: €0.60 - €0.95 per hour

A gas variant is often more expensive due to current gas prices and the hassle of transporting gas bottles. That's why electric models are becoming increasingly popular.

Tips for optimal warmth in your Amsterdam garden

Use windbreaks – Amsterdam is known for strong winds, especially on the IJ. Combine your heater with an outdoor rug for extra warmth for your feet. Choose shortwave infrared, so the heat doesn't blow away as quickly. Place a heater under a parasol for a pleasant microclimate.

Protect your heater with a cover. In rainy Amsterdam, that's really essential.

For the Amsterdam climate, I advise:
