Explore our Range of Outdoor Patio Heaters

With our wide range of outdoor electric heaters available at Approved Electrix, our outdoor heating installation specialists can find the most optimal solution for your home and garden.

Choosing the right heater depends on your space, design, and how you plan to use your outdoor area. Common options include:

Infrared Heaters

Using infrared technology to produce direct, radiant heat, our range of infrared heaters are ideal for open or breezy spaces as their heat doesn’t get blown away by chilly winds.

Halogen & Quartz Heaters

Some of the most quick-performing outdoor electric heaters use halogen or quartz bulbs to emit radiant heat. This makes halogen and quartz outdoor patio heaters the perfect option for areas where quick heat is needed.

Ceramic Heaters

Ceramic heaters offer even heat distribution and often come with adjustable settings for added versatility. Their flexibility makes ceramic heaters an optimal outdoor heating solution for semi-enclosed areas with changeable conditions.

Panel Heaters (e.g., Heatstrip, Thermofilm)

With leading models across Heatstrip and Thermofilm’s award-winning range of outdoor patio heaters, these sleek, discreet ceiling or wall-mounted panel heaters provide gentle, consistent radiant heat and a minimalist profile that saves on space.

Important Installation Considerations for Outdoor Patio Heaters

Control Modules

Most outdoor heater brands offer control modules or remote controls sold separately. These often include multiple heat settings and timers. Be sure to ask our outdoor patio heating specialists about compatible control options when purchasing your heater.

New Circuit & Safety Switch

Most outdoor patio heaters require a dedicated circuit run back to the main switchboard, with an RCBO safety switch for added protection. Thankfully, our residential electricians at Approved Electrix also offer safety switch installation services across Melbourne.

Isolation Switch

Need to revamp the safety switches across your switchboard prior to installing your outdoor electric heater? We’ve got you covered. And while we’re at it, we can also install an isolation switch to meet local regulations and ensure safe operation of your selected outdoor heating solution.

Mounting Points

If no suitable fixing points are available, we may need to install additional mounting supports for your outdoor patio heater. This is usually done by installing timber between trusses in the roof cavity to provide secure attachment points.

Helpful Tip: Mounting Height Matters!

When purchasing a ceiling-mounted outdoor heater, be sure to:

  • Ask your supplier for the optimum mounting height for your specific model.
  • Purchase the correct extension rods or mounting accessories to ensure the heater is installed at the ideal height for maximum efficiency and safety.

 

Proper mounting height is essential for even heat distribution and to comply with manufacturer guidelines.
