Frequently Asked Questions
1. What's the difference between ceiling and wall-mounted outdoor heaters?
Ceiling-mounted heaters provide even overhead heat distribution and stay completely out of the way, ideal for covered patios with solid mounting structures. Wall-mounted heaters offer directional heating control and easier electrical access, perfect for open patios without ceiling options. Ceiling models like the Solaira Radius work best for multiple seating areas, while wall-mounted options like the Bromic Tungsten excel for targeted heating zones and wind-exposed areas.
2. Do wall-mounted electric outdoor heaters use a lot of electricity?
Wall-mounted electric heaters typically consume 1.5-6 kWh per hour depending on wattage (1500W-6000W models). A 3000W wall-mounted heater costs approximately 36-48 cents per hour based on average electricity rates. Electric models like the Bromic Tungsten offer individual element control to reduce consumption, while smart-enabled heaters like the Aura Decor Series provide scheduling features to optimize energy usage and minimize operating costs.
3. What are the best ceiling-mounted electric outdoor heaters for patios?
The best ceiling-mounted electric heaters include the Solaira Radius pendant heater for covered spaces, Infratech WD Series for high-mounted commercial applications, and Bromic Platinum Smart-Heat Electric for low-clearance installations. Solaira Alpha Series offers exceptional efficiency with 86% energy transfer, while Infratech models provide recessed mounting options for flush installation. Consider mounting height, coverage area, and aesthetic requirements when selecting your ceiling heater.
4. Are gas ceiling heaters better than electric for outdoor heating?
Gas ceiling heaters like the Sunpak S25/S34 provide higher BTU output (25,000-34,000 BTU) and operate independently of electrical capacity, making them ideal for large commercial spaces and areas with limited electrical infrastructure. Electric ceiling heaters like the Infratech CD Series offer precise temperature control, recessed installation options, and silent operation. Choose gas for maximum heat output and electric for precise control and architectural integration.
