Who is Patio Comfort?
Patio Comfort is the Texas-made infrared patio heater brand that built its reputation on commercial-grade propane and natural gas heaters that outlast the aluminum-stand import competition. 41,500 BTU heat output, authentic brass burners, powder-coated aluminum reflectors, 10-year burner warranty.

When Patio Comfort is the wrong choice
Patio Comfort is engineered for buyers who prioritize build quality and longevity over upfront price. If you're buying a first grill under $1,500, or a fire feature for a rental property, or any use case where you expect to upgrade within three years, the premium Patio Comfort commands over mass-market alternatives won't earn back. The brand is at its best when the ownership horizon is 10+ years, when the install is permanent, and when matched components (vent hood, refrigeration, side burners) are part of the plan.

Patio Comfort — the questions buyers actually ask
Natural gas vs. propane — which Patio Comfort heater should I pick?
Natural gas if your patio has a gas line already (NPC05 permanent post is the pick). Propane for freestanding mobility (PC02 portable). Both deliver the same 41,500 BTU. NG is cheaper to run; LP is more flexible.
How much area does one heater cover?
A single 41,500 BTU Patio Comfort heater heats a ~20-ft diameter area comfortably in 40-50F temps. For patios larger than 400 sq ft, plan on two heaters.
Is Patio Comfort MAP-protected?
Yes. All authorized dealers price identically per the manufacturer's MAP agreement. You will not find a Patio Comfort heater cheaper anywhere than our listed price.
