Most outdoor heaters are quite small, meaning you need lots of them to warm a cold space. Alfresco heaters range from 3kW to 8kW dual element models. The three-pronged approach of medium-wave infra red energy, high powered heaters and almost 100% conversion of electricity to heat means that you can be comfortable outdoors, even on the chilliest winter evenings for only a few cents per hour.

There are 6 models within the Alfresco heaters collection, ranging from the smallest 2.8kw up to the largest 8kw heater. The result is that you require fewer heaters thus saving on the initial investment. Unlike competitor’s heaters, our elements span the entire length of each heater producing greater output of targeted heat.
