RADtec 38" Golden Tube Electric Patio Heater (3000W/220V)

The Golden Tube series delivers infrared heat with a distinctive warm amber glow from golden tube elements, creating sophisticated ambiance for covered patios and outdoor dining areas. Available in two sizes (25" and 38") with different power levels to match your space requirements. The golden tube elements allow flexible wall or ceiling mounting while providing residential grade performance with elegant lighting. If you need invisible warmth, RADtec's zero glow models are your best choice. If you want warmth with ambient lighting, the Golden Tube series is ideal. See the variant selector above for specific power and voltage details for each size.

Yes. The 38" Golden Tube model produces a warm amber glow from its heating elements, creating sophisticated ambiance while delivering powerful heat. This is different from RADtec's zero-glow models. The golden tube design adds elegant lighting to your outdoor space while heating efficiently.

The 38" requires professional hardwired installation with 220-240V electrical connection (13.6 amps). Mount the heater minimum 6 feet from the ground/floor and maintain at least 20 inches clearance from heated surfaces. The unit can be mounted on walls or ceilings. We strongly recommend hiring a licensed electrician familiar with 220V installations.

Yes. The included wireless remote control offers three adjustable heat levels (Low, Moderate, High), allowing you to dial in the perfect temperature for any conditions.

The 38" features weather-resistant construction with powder-coated aluminum housing designed for covered outdoor installation. It's built for reliable performance in outdoor dining areas, covered patios, and protected deck installations. For optimal longevity, install in covered outdoor spaces.

Coverage depends on the model size you select. The 25" model (1500W) is ideal for smaller covered outdoor spaces, while the 38" model (3000W) handles medium sized areas. Actual coverage also depends on mounting height, ambient temperature, and wind conditions. For optimal performance, mount at the recommended height (minimum 6 feet from ground) and position the heater to create targeted heat zones in your outdoor area. See the variant selector above for power specifications.

Operating costs depend on your local electricity rates, the model you choose, and usage patterns. Based on average US electricity rates of $0.10-0.15 per kWh:

• 25" model (1500W): Approximately $0.15-0.23 per hour at full power
• 38" model (3000W): Approximately $0.30-0.45 per hour at full power

Using lower heat levels (low or moderate settings) reduces operating costs proportionally. Your actual costs will vary based on your local electricity rates and how often you run the heater.
