Mushroom propane gas heaters: As the winter months start approaching what will be the best outdoor propane gas heater to transform my cold outdoor patio into cozy retreat, mushroom patio heaters are most ideal. Yet, the pressing questions remain: do outdoor patio heaters work? Do patio heaters keep you warm? The answer is YES!
Propane gas heaters warm both the air and objects in a room:
- Air: Propane heaters warm the air in a room by heating the air near the flame and then dispersing it throughout the room through convection.
- Objects: Propane heaters warm objects in the room directly
Mushroom propane gas heaters disperse heat in a circular pattern, warming the area around them. The heat is reflected downwards and around the heater’s flat, circular top, which resembles a mushroom cap. The heat can spread up to 12–20 feet in circumference.
Unlike a fire pit, which can struggle to maintain heat distribution outdoors, mushroom heaters provide consistent warmth no matter the weather. Because of this design, mushroom heaters emit heat in a full 360-degree circle around the heater, ensuring everyone within that circle stays warm and comfortable.
Direct fired and direct fired enclosed flame heaters produce heat by pulling air directly over a flame, which is produced by burning either propane or natural gas. This heat generates small amounts of moisture from coming in direct contact with the flame. That’s why they’re called direct fired heaters.
