FAQs:

1. Are propane heaters safe indoors?

Round or mushroom-styled propane heaters are typically for outdoor use and are not safe indoors. However, some wall or ceiling-mounted propane heaters are rated for indoor use.

2. How long does a patio heater last?

Propane heaters have varying burn times, typically lasting from 8 to 10 hours, which is ample time for a cozy evening outdoors. On the other hand, natural gas heaters and electric patio heaters provide continuous warmth as long as they are powered on.
