What types of outdoor gas heaters are available?
There are several types of outdoor gas heaters available to suit different needs and preferences. The main types include:
- Wall-Mounted Heaters: Ideal for small spaces, these heaters are installed on walls to provide directed heat.
- Ceiling-Mounted Heaters: These are great for larger areas as they distribute heat evenly from above.
- Freestanding Portable Heaters: These heaters offer flexibility and can be moved to different areas as needed.
- Tabletop Heaters: Compact and perfect for placing on tables to provide localised warmth.
- Pyramid Flame Heaters: Known for their stylish design, these heaters also serve as a decorative element in outdoor spaces
Are outdoor gas heaters efficient?
Yes, outdoor gas heaters are highly efficient. They provide immediate heat and can be more cost-effective than electric heaters, especially in larger outdoor areas. Gas heaters, particularly those using natural gas, offer a consistent and reliable source of heat. Modern gas heaters are designed to maximise heat output while minimising energy consumption, making them an efficient choice for keeping outdoor spaces warm.
Are gas or electric patio heaters better?
The choice between gas and electric patio heaters depends on various factors, including energy availability, installation preferences, and specific heating needs:
- Gas Heaters: These are ideal for larger spaces and provide robust, consistent heat. They are often more powerful and can quickly heat up an area. However, they require a gas connection and proper ventilation.
- Electric Heaters: These are easier to install and can be used in enclosed spaces as they do not produce combustion gases. They are typically more energy-efficient for smaller areas but may not provide as much heat output as gas heaters

Outdoor Gas Heating Services
Yes, gas patio heaters are safe when used correctly and maintained properly. They are designed with several safety features such as anti-tilt mechanisms, flame failure devices, and protective casings to prevent accidental injuries and fire hazards. However, it is crucial to follow the manufacturer’s guidelines, ensure proper ventilation, and keep the heater away from flammable materials to minimise risks. Regular maintenance and inspections by professionals can further enhance safety.
To use outdoor gas heaters safely, follow these precautions:
- Proper Ventilation: Ensure the heater is used in a well-ventilated area to prevent carbon monoxide buildup.
- Clearance: Keep the heater at least three feet away from any combustible materials.
- Stable Placement: Place the heater on a stable, level surface to prevent tipping.
- Supervision: Never leave the heater unattended while it is operating.
- Regular Checks: Inspect the heater regularly for gas leaks, wear, and damage. Use soapy water to check for leaks in hoses and connections.
- Turn Off When Not in Use: Always turn off the gas supply and heater when not in use
Maintaining your outdoor gas heater involves several steps:
- Cleaning: Regularly clean the heater, especially the burners, with a soft cloth and soapy water. Avoid using corrosive cleaning agents.
- Inspection: Check for gas leaks, rust, and wear in the gas hoses and connections. Use soapy water to detect leaks.
- Covering: When not in use, cover the heater to protect it from dust and weather elements.
- Professional Servicing: Schedule annual maintenance with a licensed professional to ensure all components are functioning correctly and safely
The choice between electric and gas patio heaters depends on your specific needs:
- Gas Heaters: These are generally more powerful and better suited for larger outdoor spaces. They provide robust, consistent heat but require proper ventilation and professional installation.
- Electric Heaters: These are easier to install and can be used in enclosed spaces since they do not produce combustion gases. They are typically more energy-efficient for smaller areas but may not provide as much heat as gas heaters
