This does not have to be longer! With a radiant heater for the terrace, you can still sit on the terrace after dark , because it will warm .

However, in order for you to choose a powerful radiant heater , we have created a suitable checklist for you, which informs you about all the important aspects. Don’t forget to take a look at our product recommendations . These show you different radiant heaters in different price ranges.

Checklist For Radiant Heaters

Radiant Heater for Terrace and Garden
  • Here are mostly used gas radiant heaters, which are more flexible than electric models. A gas cylinder of up to 11 kg supplies the radiant heater with energy. This is much cheaper than variants that require an electrical connection . The power of gas radiant heaters is specified in KW. Devices with 2.7 to 4.6 KW are suitable for garages, tents or other semi-open spaces. For operation on larger areas or the terrace you should choose a radiant heater with at least 12 watts. Make sure that the heater has an integrated gas pressure regulator . This is the only way to ensure a constant output.
  • Gas-powered radiant heaters should never be used indoors . The gas can lead to an increased lack of oxygen , so that there is an acute danger of suffocation . Always place the heater on a flat surface to prevent it from tipping over.
Radiant Heaters for Interiors
  • Electric radiant heaters are primarily used indoors . However, there are also models that can be connected to the natural gas line or run on pellets . Here, too, the power is specified in KW . An electric radiant heater should be able to provide 100 to 150 watts per square meter. You have the choice between devices for standing up or for wall or ceiling mounting. In addition, there are so-called infrared and dark radiators
  • With infrared radiators, the air is not heated, but the waves generate heat when they hit the skin. This is usually perceived as very pleasant. Infrared radiant heaters are noiseless and odorless. Dark radiators do not emit red light , which has a much more noble effect.
Special radiant heaters for babies
  • At the touch of a button and without any preheating , your baby will be pampered with the perfect temperature while changing diapers. The heat area here is only about 3 m², as concentration on the changing table is desired. The rest of the room is not heated and retains its comfortable temperature. Fan heaters for babies do not whirl up dust and there is also no draught.
