Electric Patio Heater Hanging Options Electric heaters don't emit any harmful pollutants unlike patio heaters that make use of natural gas or propane. This makes them safe to use in a restricted area, such as an enclosed patio or gazebo. The type of heater that you choose will depend on the dimensions and the climate of your outdoor space. It is also important to determine what method the heater will be installed. Ceiling Mounting There are a myriad of choices when it comes to outdoor patio heaters that are mounted on the ceiling. They are designed to withstand temperatures of more than 2,000 degrees Fahrenheit and have attractive designs that resemble chandeliers or ceiling light fixtures. They are able to blend in with the aesthetics of the room. They can also be powered by either gas, which is a result of existing propane or natural lines, or electric, which needs only an electrical outlet to run. Gas models heat a space more quickly than electric models however they require a continuous supply of natural gas or propane. Installation heights for these units are typically between 8 and 9 feet above the floor. This ensures that the warmth is evenly distributed across the area and also keeps the heaters away from those who are below them. The amount of heat they produce is measured in British thermal units (Btu) and higher numbers generating more Btu. Ceiling-mounted fixtures in addition to being more secure and practical, are generally more easy to clean and maintain as opposed to fixtures that hang or protrude off walls or other surfaces. They don't need to be stowed away when they are not in use, which makes them ideal for areas with little storage space. Another option that is popular is to place your heater into the ceiling. This gives a contemporary, minimalist look. It also helps keep the heater from view and less likely to get bumped or accidentally damaged. This is only a problem if you have only a small ceiling cavity. The heater can be mounted on the wall in areas where hanging it from the ceiling is not possible. Fireplaces And Stoves can be attached to a wall via brackets, and are suitable for locations with vaulted or angled ceilings. They can be powered by electric and gas models and are available in different dimensions and styles to complement the style of your patio or gazebo. Our heating experts will look at photos and plans to determine the best dimensions and mounting options for your space. Flush-Mounting There are a myriad of options to integrate outdoor heating into your landscape, whether you're planning to build an outdoor patio or retrofitting one which is already in place. While we recommend pole-mounted patio heaters for open spaces or areas with ample floor space, there are also wall-mounted options that cut down on installation time and expense without compromising your heating output. Another option is flush mounting, which places the heater into the ceiling. This design is ideal for patios with low ceilings or enclosed patios. It can give a minimalist and clean appearance. A flush mount frame is easy to set up and comes in many finishes that will match any style of interior design. When you're choosing a flush-mount patio heater think about how much heat you'll need and the location in which it will be put. The most powerful models are ideal for large outdoor and indoor areas since they produce the most heat. Smaller patio heaters are ideal for smaller spaces or central locations. Electric patio heaters are renowned for their ability to generate large amounts of heat with an extremely efficient fuel source. While propane or natural gas heaters depend on fossil fuel electric patio heaters generate their heat through an infrared process that directly warms objects and people without warming the air around them. This kind of heat is safer and more cost-effective, as well as eco-friendly than traditional gas patio heaters. If you're looking for an edgier and minimalist aesthetic, there are also recessed options available. Patio heaters that are built into the ceiling will blend seamlessly with the surroundings. A recessed heater may also reduce the height of the ceiling, which is an advantage for smaller areas. The only disadvantage of a recess-based patio heating system is that it could require a small amount of space in the ceiling. It can differ from model to model. The majority of models are built to accommodate this and include an adjustable recess kit. A recessed patio heater can also be used in small spaces without release of pollutants into the air. This is because it does not require vents. This is a significant distinction from propane and natural gas heaters, which aren't suitable for use in enclosed spaces and may release carbon monoxide into the air. Wall Mounting Wall mounting is a great option for spaces that have vaulted or slanted ceilings. With wall brackets that are available for all Bromic heating solutions, recess-mounted installations can be anchored to structures using the required support to ensure the safety of operation. Electric patio heaters are suitable for a wide variety of outdoor settings. They can be positioned against a wall to avoid obstructions and to ensure the best heat dispersion. This option is also suitable for those with less space and need to cut down on the floor or table space. These patio heaters can be operated by remote control and have a variety of levels of power. They can be adjusted to the desired height. The location of your patio heater is ultimately up to you but there are some guidelines you should follow in order to get the most of it. For example, it's important to avoid hanging your heater too high since the heat radiation can cause burns. If you mount two patio heaters or more too close to each other the heat won't be distributed evenly. The size of your room and the amount of heat you need will also influence where you choose to mount your electric heater. A floor standing model with greater British Thermal Units rating (BTU) is a good option for larger areas. It can heat your space quickly and evenly. A tabletop or pendant heater is an excellent alternative for a small and portable solution. You should also think about the way you'll charge your electric heater. Some heaters are powered by electricity, while others rely on natural gas and propane. If you're opting for an electric model it comes with a power cord included with the purchase. However, propane and gas models will require a permanent connection to a natural or liquid gas supply. In both instances, make sure your patio heater has an electric starter that can limit the peak current and stop your fuse box from blowing. Installation Options When selecting a patio heater, it is important to take into consideration a variety of aspects. They include the coverage of heating and access to natural gas or electricity constraints and aesthetic preferences. Bromic's wide range of heaters is customizable to fit any space and create the desired appearance. For example ceiling-mounted units are attached to the joists on an outdoor space's roof, and provide heat directly above without losing floor space. They also provide protection from wind, which can blow out conventional patio heaters. Electric-powered models warm objects and individuals using short wave infrared instead of air, resulting in a 90 percent energy-efficient product. They can also be dimmed to alter the amount of light and warmth. The BTU rating of the patio heater is an important factor to consider when selecting the size to suit your space. Higher ratings are capable of heating larger areas faster than smaller ones. For optimal heating, choose a model with an output rating that is equal to or greater than the square footage of your space. An alternative to mounting overhead is to embed a heater in the ceiling of an existing patio or a new construction. This creates a sleek and contemporary design that enhances the surrounding architectural design and does not obstruct views. A recessed patio heater can be a great option for restaurants and hotels. Natural propane, gas electric patio heaters are three of the most popular types. Natural gas heaters cost more to run than other models because they require professional installation. They also have to be connected to a continuous line. Propane patio heaters warm up quicker than other heaters and are portable, but they require an additional propane tank. The main difference between these three types of heaters for patios is that gas and propane heaters require an electric or gas line, while electric models plug into standard outlets. Decide which patio heater is right for you. Each type has its own advantages and benefits.
