How do electric patio heaters work?

Electric patio heaters convert electricity into infrared radiation – a completely safe form of warmth that sits on the electromagnetic spectrum. It’s primed for the outdoors because it doesn’t get lost to air movement. Instead, infrared travels in waves to heat everything in its path. It’s a natural warmth that is easily absorbed by various surfaces, including our own bodes, resulting in a pleasant experience that’s also incredibly efficient.
