This foldable propane heater collapses down to a slim 4.7 inch profile when the season ends, so it slides under a bed, slips into a closet gap, or leans against a patio wall without taking over your storage. When you need it, unfold it in seconds, drop in a standard 15kg LPG cylinder, and press the piezo ignition button (no batteries), no power cord, no extension cords running across the deck.
Three ceramic infrared panels put out 6,000, 12,000, or 18,000 BTU, enough to warm up to 450 square feet. Run it on low for gentle background heat through a cool evening, or crank it to high to take the chill off fast. The radiant heat warms people and furniture directly rather than blowing air around, so it works just as well on a covered patio as in a drafty garage or a living room corner.
Safety is built in. An oxygen depletion sensor, flame failure device, and tip-over shutoff cut the gas automatically if oxygen gets low, the flame goes out, or the unit gets knocked over. Four swivel casters and a side carry cutout let you roll it from the deck to the garage to the porch without breaking your back. The matte black iron body fits modern, farmhouse, and industrial spaces without screaming.
