How To Buy A Tabletop Patio Heater

Portable patio tabletop heaters are great. Whether you are buying them to accessorize a pool area outside or are building a hangout spot in the back yard, tabletop patio heaters compliment almost every scenario. They are smaller than the regular patio heaters most are accustomed to. Since these are portable patio heaters they fit the lifestyle of some much better than a heater that has to be plugged in. For homes without close electrical outlets and those who don’t want to run extension cords to a patio heater, the portable unit is perfect. Most portable tabletop heaters for the patio, deck, or porch area use propane gas. As the name implies it can sit upon a tabletop, such as a pick nick table.

When you are choosing which portable patio heater to buy pay attention to these important features:

  • BTUs – BTUs are the amount of heat or energy the patio heater outputs.
    • For example, a standing commercial patio heater puts out 46,000 BTUs, which is enough to keep two tables full of people warm outside. A smaller, portable tabletop patio heater will have less BTUs because of its size.
    • One important feature is patio heaters’ BTUs. The BTUs are the amount of heat or energy the outdoor patio heater outputs. For example, a standing, commercial patio heater puts out 46,000 BTUs, enough to keep two tables full of people warm outside. A smaller, portable tabletop patio heater will have less BTUs just because of its size and proximity to objects and people. The Tabletop Glass Tube Patio Heater (pictured below) is a brand-new heater that was just released. It shows the size of a tabletop portable patio heater. That particular outdoor heater is a portable liquid propane heater that costs less than $150. It is a great price for chilly nights outside.
  • Electronic Ignition – Many portable liquid propane gas heaters have push button ignitions, this allows quick start heating. Make sure yours has an Electronic Ignition.
  • Tilt Protection & Weight Plate – A tilt protection turns on to shut off gas in case the outdoor heater gets knocked over. Weight plates are at the bottom of portable tabletop heaters to ensure that the heater is secure.
