Different formats are available to meet your requirements in terms of space, power and design. However, there are two limitations to a gas pergola heater: as well as presenting a risk associated with the gas cylinder, this installation is imposing and difficult to move. Electric pergola heating is an alternative. In particular, you can opt for a radiator, an air blower or even a heating grille, all of which are generally affordable. However, this installation requires an electrical connection, which is not always possible outdoors. What's more, an electric heater can consume a lot of energy and quickly drive up the bill.

Although this solution is more comfortable to use on a daily basis, it can require major work. Another solution is toinstall a fireplace or stove. As well as being aesthetically pleasing and available in a wide range of models, these appliances offer a wide choice of fuels (wood, gas, pellets, etc.).
