Patio heaters are the chill-busting answer if you'd like
to extend your outdoor entertaining season. By the grill or around the pool
or spa, a natural gas patio heater adds an extra touch of warmth.

Buying Tips
Always select a reputable, qualified dealer for your purchase
and installation needs.
Ask about the type of warranty that comes with the unit
you purchase.
Assess the needs of your patio or deck area to make sure
you purchase the right type of heater (e.g. portable, post-mounted or ceiling
mounted).
Be sure to check for a brand of heater that has passed
the ANSI requirements for outdoor heaters.
Controls should be fully enclosed in a protected compartment
insider the heater.
Installation and Maintenance
Natural gas patio heaters, like all natural gas products,
must be installed in accordance with the Natural Fuel Gas Code.
You can install natural gas patio heaters yourself by
following the installation guide provided with the unit.
Annual maintenance is recommended and should include removal
of cobwebs and other debris that can obstruct the gas flow through the orifice.
Safety Tips
Never allow children to operate a natural gas product
without proper supervision.
Never leave your natural gas patio heater operating when
you leave your home unattended for a long period of time.
