The Problem with Traditional Patio Heaters

Budget propane heaters create more problems than they solve. Lightweight bases tip in moderate wind, shutting off heat mid gathering. Coverage barely extends 6 feet, leaving most of your patio unusable. Thin gauge steel corrodes within months, and dated designs clash with modern outdoor furniture.

Basic electric heaters require expensive hardwiring and permanent installation, eliminating flexibility. You're locked into one location, and moving them requires an electrician. When your outdoor layout changes, you're stuck.

Fire pits produce smoke that clings to clothing and furniture, create uneven heat zones, and require constant fuel management and cleanup. The ambiance comes with serious drawbacks.

The RADtec 80" Ellipse Flame Propane Patio Heater solves these problems with premium construction, powerful 41,000 BTU output, and elegant ellipse flame design. You get serious heat coverage, beautiful visible flame ambiance, and the flexibility to move it wherever you need warmth. No hardwiring required, no smoke, just reliable propane heat with sophisticated style.

RADtec 80" Ellipse Flame Propane Patio Heater FAQs Answered

What's the difference between the Ellipse Flame and RADtec's electric models?

The 80" Ellipse Flame uses propane fuel for portable, powerful heat without electrical installation. It delivers 41,000 BTU and features a visible ellipse flame tube for ambiance. RADtec's electric infrared models require hardwiring or dedicated outlets but eliminate fuel costs and tank management. Choose propane for portability and visible flame, or electric for permanent installation and infrared heating technology.

Does this heater produce visible light?

Yes. The ellipse flame tube creates a beautiful visible flame that serves as both a heat source and an elegant focal point for your patio. The flame is visible through the heat-resistant glass tube and provides warm ambiance while heating your outdoor space.

What installation is required?

Simple assembly is required using the included hardware. Connect a standard 20 lb propane tank (not included) using the included regulator and connection hardware. Follow the detailed assembly instructions in the manual for propane connection requirements, clearance specifications, and safety guidelines. No electrical installation or hardwiring required.

How do I control the heater?

The heater features a pilot ignition system that you light following the manual's instructions. Once the pilot is lit, use the variable control knob to adjust heat output from low to high (up to 41,000 BTU). The thermocouple safety system ensures the gas shuts off if the pilot flame goes out.

Is this heater weatherproof?

This heater is designed for outdoor use only. The powder-coated steel construction provides durability, but like all propane heaters, it should be protected from extreme weather when not in use. Follow the manual's care instructions for cleaning and maintenance to ensure long-lasting performance.

How long does a propane tank last?

A standard 20 lb propane tank provides approximately 11 hours of runtime at full 41,000 BTU output (fuel consumption is approximately 1.8 lbs per hour). Actual runtime varies based on your heat setting. Using the variable control knob at lower settings extends tank life significantly.

What comes in the box?

Your purchase includes the complete RADtec 80" Ellipse Flame heater with powder-coated steel body and ellipse flame tube, all assembly hardware, weighted base, pilot ignition system, variable control knob, propane regulator and connection hardware, and detailed installation manual. Propane tank not included.

How do I maintain the heater?

Regular maintenance includes wiping down the powder-coated surfaces, removing debris from the burner area, cleaning the burner injector, and checking for blockages. Inspect the hose for wear or damage and replace every 5 years as recommended. Protect the glass flame tube from bumps and clean carefully. Full maintenance instructions are included in the manual.

What's your return policy?

Lux Yard and Homes offers a 30-day return policy. Non-defective returns are subject to a 15% restocking fee per manufacturer policy. The heater is covered by a 2-year limited manufacturer warranty (1 year parts and labor for residential use, 2 years parts only for commercial use). Contact us at sales@luxyardandhomes.com for warranty or return assistance.

Why is the price higher than I see elsewhere?

As an authorized RADtec dealer, we provide genuine manufacturer warranty protection, expert technical guidance on sizing and installation, and post-purchase support for troubleshooting. You're investing in a premium outdoor heating system backed by specialists who know these products inside and out, not just a transaction with a big-box retailer.
