Electric patio heaters are outdoor heating solutions designed to extend the usability of your patio, deck, or outdoor living space during cooler months or chilly evenings. Unlike traditional propane or natural gas patio heaters, electric models run on electricity, providing efficient and eco-friendly warmth without the need for fuel tanks or open flames. (Learn more about electric vs gas heaters.)
These heaters work by converting electrical energy into infrared radiant heat, which directly warms objects and people within their range rather than heating the surrounding air. This targeted heating approach ensures efficient and consistent warmth, making it ideal for outdoor spaces where heat can easily dissipate.
