How Many Heaters Do I Need?

For a marquee, the rule of thumb is 1kW per 10m² as a minimum. A 15kW space heater covers roughly 150m², so a 300-guest marquee (around 300m²) needs two units. In colder months or poorly insulated structures, increase this by 50%.

Call 0800 910 1100 if you need help calculating the right number of heaters for your venue.

Every order includes a Free Minor Damage Waiver at no extra charge. Other hire companies charge 2–3% of your order total for the same cover — on a typical £1,000 booking, that is up to £30 extra you keep in your pocket.

Frequently asked questions

What heaters work best inside a marquee?
Electric or indirect heating often suits enclosed marquees, and propane patio heaters suit entrance or open-sided areas. Pick the heater around the marquee size, layout and ventilation plan.
How many heaters do I need for a marquee?
The number depends on the marquee size, the weather and how much of the space stays open. Share the marquee dimensions and we will help you size the order.
Do you supply propane or electric heaters?
We supply propane and electric heater options across our range. Choose the fuel type that fits the venue rules and the power available on site.
What is the delivery charge for heater hire?
We price delivery against the venue postcode, the route and the hire size. The basket shows the transport charge before you pay.
