We didn’t build this standing patio heater to look pretty. We built it to work—like a focused heat source that actually earns its keep. Because out on a patio, wind and cold air make convection heaters feel pointless. This one uses infrared to put warmth where people are standing, without taking up a ton of space.
Power, voltage, and the right geometry
It runs at 2500W, and you can power it with either 230V or 400V, depending on what your place is wired for. That wattage is there for a reason: it packs serious radiant heat into a compact tube, so you get real warmth without a bulky, intrusive unit. The 300mm tube length shapes the heat into a tight beam, sending it downward and outward across the standing area. The footprint stays controlled, but keep in mind—it runs hot, so nearby materials need proper clearance.
What’s inside: halogen quartz and a no-fuss connection
The core is a halogen-filled quartz envelope. Quartz handles the shock of turning on and off quickly, and it can run hotter than glass, which helps keep the output steady. The halogen gas also fights filament wear, so the lamp holds its performance over repeated cycles. And the R7s connector? It’s just practical. It locks in fast, carries the current cleanly, and makes replacements straightforward—whether you’re on the workbench or out in the field.
How it feels on the patio
In standing-room setups, this heater gives you localized comfort that keeps guests staying longer—without trying to heat the whole open space. The slim tube design keeps the unit out of the way, so you can mount it overhead or on a stand without killing the flow. Just be smart about it. The heat is concentrated, so plan clearances and ventilation. If you size it to the seating zone, you get comfort you can count on—and a heater that can take the weather and still stay serviceable.
