Patio Heater Assembly in Hollywood, FL

Base Stability Comes Before the Burner Assembly

Tall patio heaters can be top-heavy. Weighted bases, wheels and support poles should be assembled according to the manufacturer’s sequence before the burner and reflector are installed.

The final location should be level and clear of obstacles.

Gas Components Should Remain Factory-Configured

Propane heaters may include regulators, hoses and burner assemblies that connect according to the product instructions. Modifying gas fittings, changing regulators or connecting to a permanent gas line is outside ordinary product assembly.

Regulated gas work requires the appropriate qualified trade.

Reflector Panels Need Even Alignment

Multi-piece reflector hats can bend if fasteners are tightened unevenly. Panels should be joined on a protected surface and mounted after the heater body is stable.

Placement Must Follow Heat Clearances

The manufacturer’s clearance requirements from roofs, awnings, walls and combustible materials should be respected. A patio heater should not be placed under a structure merely because it physically fits.

For shade structures rather than heating equipment, see Awning & Shade Installation.
