Start with placement and fuel, then explore the available configurations within your budget. Save your selections to your outdoor home project.
Choose with confidence
Think about the seats you use, the shelter around them and the supply available at home. Those decisions guide the heater selection.
Power & flexibility
An option for fixed, pendant and freestanding installations. Compare the exact voltage and power requirements before choosing; a heater may need a dedicated supply rather than a standard household outlet. Compatible dimming controls can offer adjustable warmth.

Choose the correct natural gas or propane model for your supply. Fixed gas heaters and freestanding propane heaters offer different ways to bring warmth outdoors. Check the selected model’s ventilation, clearance and ignition requirements with your installer.

Plan around the dining table or lounge group rather than the entire patio footprint. Wind, mounting height and heater angle affect the warmth at the seats. Larger or exposed spaces may need several heating positions and a tailored plan.
Plan your spaceA complete heating plan
The heater is the starting point. Mounts, controls and finishes complete the installation—and should be chosen for the exact model.
Wall and ceiling mounting keep the heater visible and accessible. Selected electric models offer a recessed approach with a compatible kit. Confirm the ceiling depth, materials and service access before committing to the finish.

Practical guidance for choosing and planning outdoor heating.
The answer depends on the occupied area, exposure, mounting height and the chosen heater. Use published coverage only under its stated conditions. Gather the dimensions and photographs of your space for an installer to review before finalizing quantities.
Only where the exact model’s instructions permit the installation. Ceiling materials, clearances and ventilation all matter. A covered patio is not automatically suitable for every gas or electric heater.
Included equipment varies by model. Many fixed heaters have standard mounting brackets, while alternative mounts and controls are separate selections. Open the chosen product to check its included equipment and compatible accessories.
Compatible electric heaters can offer adjustable output with the appropriate dimming controller. Fixed gas heaters use on/off controls; freestanding models have their own arrangements. Confirm compatibility for the exact heater and electrical load.
Consider the Platinum Marine range for suitable land-based coastal projects. Confirm the model’s material specification, installation limits and cleaning guidance. Exposure and maintenance still matter.
Save your preferred configurations, complete the planning checklist and gather photographs of the space. Email Info@HearthOutpost.com with your dimensions, mounting height and questions to start a conversation.
