Innova Heater Buying Guide

A well-designed outdoor heating solution will extend the outdoor experience year-round by providing an added element of warmth and comfort. With multiple sizes, wattages, and power options to choose from, selecting the right heater for your space can be a bit overwhelming. Below we have put a step-by-step guide that will help you determine which model and how many you need for your space.

Step 1: Measure and Analyze the Space

The first step in determining how many heaters to purchase is to measure your space. You need to decide if you are looking to heat the entire space or a just a specific seating area within that space (see example below). Innova infrared patio heaters produce a warm blanket of infrared rays that will keep people and objects within its heat bloom warm, not the air. Once you have a better idea of the size of the area you are looking to heat, you can move on to Step 2.

Step 2: Determine your Mounting Height

Innova offers three different wattages to choose from and choosing the right model based on your mounting height is important. Below is a chart that will help you determine which model to choose from based on your mounting height. Once you find your heater based on mounting height you can move on to step 3.

Step 3: Drag and Drop to Visualize Your Space

Now that you know the area of your space that you would like to heat and you know which model is perfect, use our layout tool to see how many you will need. Fill out your Name, Project Name, your dimensions and click create. Once you follow these steps you will be able to drag and drop your heater into the space.

Step 4: Check Available Power

The most important aspect of choosing the correct heater is to make sure that the voltage of the element matches the power available. Residential homes more than likely will require 240v power, but it is always a good idea to confirm with your electrician prior to purchasing a heater. A heater where the voltage does not match the power will not effectively heat the space.
