Patio Heaters

Patio Heaters have been around in the UK for quite a time now and have been common place in the commercial world for the past 15 - 20 years.

As with most things, patio heaters were developed for the commercial market, in particular the bar and restaurant trade. However, it wasn't long before the manufacturers realized there was massive potential in the domestic home markets. Domestic patio heaters are of course smaller than their commercial brothers, but nevertheless still retain all the benefits. The domestic market is catching up fast now as most people who enjoy cooking and eating outdoors have purchased a patio heater. They are an ideal piece of garden equipment for our somewhat dodgy weather and help extend the ever shortening British summer evenings.

Each season we are now seeing more and more styles and types of patio heaters. The most common type is the free standing patio heater, this is constantly being developed and adapted and now comes in many different styles and colours. Over the past couple of years the patio heater has seen its smaller brother, the table top patio heater arrive on the seen.

As the market and demand increases patio heater manufacturers are creating differing designs. Enticing customers to upgrade their existing patio heater for the latest design/look. You are now able to purchase patio heaters with square bases, patio heaters with cast iron 'victorian period' features, decked bases and slimline styles.

We hope you find this website as an informative guide to the different types and styles of patio heaters and hope it allows you to make an informed choice before you go out and make your purchase.
