Stop Losing Money Every Time the Temperature Drops
Let’s be honest: most outdoor heaters are a joke. You turn them on, the wind blows through, and your customers are still shivering in their coats. It’s frustrating, and it’s costing you money every single winter. We do things differently. Instead of trying to heat the entire outdoors—which is basically impossible—we use shortwave infrared. Think of it like the sun. It doesn’t warm the air; it warms you. The heat goes straight to your skin and your clothes. No more fighting the wind chill. Just actual, immediate warmth.
Built for the Messy Reality of Outdoors
Rain, snow, dust—the outdoors is brutal on electronics. Most gear just can’t hack it. That’s why we use IP66-rated units. In plain English? They’re dust-tight and can handle a heavy blast of water without blinking. You can tuck them under an awning or bolt them to an exposed ceiling and stop worrying about short circuits or rust eating away at the insides. The seals are tight. Moisture stays out. Your heaters stay on.
Turning Tables Faster
Nobody wants to sit at a cold table for ten minutes while the heater “warms up.” It kills the mood and slows down your service. Shortwave emitters hit full blast in seconds. Seriously. This means you can flip tables faster and keep your patio full. We focus on creating “warm zones”—basically pockets of heat exactly where the guests are sitting. It keeps people cozy without wasting energy heating the empty space between tables. Just a heads-up: these units pack a punch, so make sure your electrical panel can handle the load. You don’t want a blown breaker right in the middle of a Friday night rush.
The Bottom Line
Turning your patio into a year-round spot is one of the easiest ways to boost your revenue. You stop losing seats the moment October hits. Sure, you’ll see a higher draw on your electric bill, but that’s a tiny price to pay compared to the extra covers you’re getting. Pro tip: wire them into a zoned control system. That way, if the patio is only half-full, you can dial back the heat in the empty sections and save a few bucks.
