Free-standing electric patio heater for hire. Three heat settings: 650W, 1350W, and 2000W. No gas required. Suits covered outdoor areas and indoor events.

The free-standing electric patio heater plugs into a standard 13A mains socket with three heat output settings: 650W, 1350W, and 2000W. No gas bottle is required. The lamp height and angle are adjustable, so you can direct heat toward a seating area. Use only with a properly rated socket or extension lead; do not plug into light-duty extension reels as the 2000W draw can trip them.
Set the heater on a level surface, plug into a 13A socket, and select your heat setting. The lamp angle adjusts on a pivot joint; aim it toward the seating area rather than upward. For outdoor use, protect the cable from foot traffic and avoid pooled water near the socket. For gas-free outdoor heating across multiple zones, hire multiple units and plan socket positions in advance. For areas where gas is available, see the pyramid patio heater or mushroom patio heater.
At 2000W, this heater provides focused warmth for a 3-4m radius under calm conditions. For larger outdoor zones, hire multiple units. For heating inside a gazebo, the infrared gazebo heater is a ceiling-mount alternative. Browse the full outdoor heating range.
Keeping outdoor spaces warm can be a challenge in the Great British climate. Our patio heaters for hire are a great solution to ensuring that your guests can sit in comfort outdoors whether it's a lazy summer evening, a brisk autumnal day or a fresh spring afternoon.
We have two kinds of outdoor heater hire available; gas and electric. Electric patio heaters are great for focused heat on specific enclosed areas where there is a good power connection, while gas patio heaters are better for open areas which require heat to be radiated throughout the space.
We've sourced the best LPG patio heaters for hire to ensure that they are easy to start, reliable and fuel efficient. We also supply 13kg LPG bottles so that you don't need to worry about getting hold of fuel.

Unless the two person carriage charge has been paid for, deliveries and collections are made by a single driver, who has 15 minutes to deliver or collect your order.
Our drivers are not allowed to take items up or down stairs or into lifts, and all deliveries need to be made within 50m of the vehicle. If it takes the driver longer then you will be charged £12.50 per additional 15 minutes. If a driver arrives and delivery or collection is impossible then unfortunately an additional carriage charge will be added to your order.
If there are likely to be issues with regards to location, staff onsite or the size of the order, then it's imperative you advise us BEFORE you place your order. Please note that our vans cannot go off-road onto grass or dirt areas, particularly when it has been wet due to the chances of the vehicle getting stuck.
As our drivers are multiple drop drivers, any issues with your delivery or collection of your order could result in issues for other customers. We ask that you are mindful of this when we are delivering or collecting your order.
