Product Information

All this already sets this Blumfeldt heater apart from others. This is also an infrared heater, not a halogen one. Two heat levels – 1,000W and 2,500W – are available from the two infrared carbon heating elements. IR heat warms people and things directly without wasting energy on heating the surrounding air. So you feel warmer faster. We’ve already mentioned the white LED light available to you as IR heat doesn’t produce light.

There’s the usual pull cord to turn the heater On and Off. The hanging hook and chain are also included as is the short power cord. If your outdoor power outlet is more than 1.3m away from the heater, you need to have a separate waterproof outdoors extension lead. Pros The Blumfeldt Heat Square Infrared Patio Heater is my choice for Runner-up in this review and I think having the remote can be very useful. Halogen heaters use a halogen-filled bulb to create heat energy from electricity. This energy is radiated into the room, which heats the air directly in front of it. This differs from convection fires, which gradually carry the heated air away from the fire. That water is then pumped around to all the radiators. When you turn it off, the radiators remain warm for a while afterwards, too. If you want to spread the heat around a room you may want to opt for a unit that can oscillate to heat more of a space. However if your planning on using a unit to heat a specific spot in a space then a stationary model should work just fine. ControlsAs with all outdoors electric appliances, you want your patio heater to be weatherproof. All the models in our review have a waterproof rating of IPX4 or IP24. The last number relates to the waterproofness, and this rating certifies that the heater can withstand water splashes from all angles. Patio heaters usually produce heat from either halogen heating tubes or infrared tubes. The heat produced in each of these ways is different. Infrared heat is in the form of electromagnetic waves and is invisible to the human eye. These waves are absorbed by the surrounding people and objects which them heat up. Time and energy aren’t wasted in heating up the surrounding air. As you’re probably going to hang the heater from some kind of structure that gives it a bit of shelter – and as the shape of the heater encourages water to drip down to the ground from it – your hanging heater should be OK out in light rain. Remote control No products found. There aren’t really any energy saving heaters because the power that they use tells you exactly how much they are going to cost.

Halogen heaters are typically rated between 400w and 2000w, but more powerful models are available. Some patio heaters consume over 4000w! Recommended Halogen Heaters Adjustable heat settings (400, 800, and 1200W), 70-degree oscillation angle, tip-over switch, auto cut-off, weighs 1.68kg.

Another great thing about this halogen heater is the fact that it features oscillating 70 degree rotation. This means that the air inside the room where the heater is will get warmer sooner. What is more, thanks to the carrying handle you’ll be able to move the heater from room to room.

Along with safety Grill! This device is quite easy to use. It has a lightweight and compact design that makes it highly portable.

Changing the settings won’t affect how long it takes to heat up either. Halogen heaters are very easy to adjust and control. My Buyer’s Guide covers the 5 main issues to think about when looking around for the best hanging patio heater for your outdoors space. Heat
