Enjoy Your Outdoor Area Throughout Winter With Outdoor Heating

With a variety of stylish and practical patio and outdoor heating options available, Stratco has the solution for keeping you warm outside this winter.  

Do you often find yourself missing out on the enjoyment of your outdoor living area during the cold and wetter months due to the lack of warmth? If so, don't fret! You can still make the most of your patio or outdoor space all year round with the help of outdoor heating solutions.

When it comes to keeping you and your guests warm and cozy in your outdoor area, there are two main options to consider: a patio heater or a fire pit. Both options come in many different shapes, sizes, and styles so that there's something to suit everyone. Whether you want to heat up the area under your patio or you're looking for something to roast marshmallows in the middle of the yard, we've got you covered for all your outdoor heating needs during winter.

Fire Pits

If you are looking for a more authentic or rustic outdoor winter experience, then a fire pit may be what you’re after. Fire pits are a great alternative to open fires as they safely contain the fire itself and can also be moved around with ease. Wood or coal is typically used as fuel, making fire pits a highly cost-effective heating option in comparison to electric or gas heaters. 

Fire pits can also help you to create the perfect atmosphere for any outdoor winter gathering, providing warmth and the ideal flame for roasting some marshmallows. 

Fire Pit Benefits

  • Wide range of design options
  • Open flames produce an outstanding atmosphere
  • Provides warmth and light for entertaining
  • Can be moved easily
  • Easy to clean and maintain
  • Marshmallow and food roasting capabilities

If a fire pit sounds like something you would like in your backyard, Stratco has a range of fire pits in many different shapes and styles to choose from, including firewood and fire starters available. From your traditional round fire pits for an authentic ambiance to modern fire pits shaped and styled to enhance the outdoor experience, Stratco has a fire pit to suit every backyard.

Patio Heaters

Gas Patio Heaters

Gas patio heaters are capable of heating large areas with the use of a gas bottle and are commonly used in commercial settings for this reason. Children and animals are safe around pole style patio heaters such as there are no flying sparks or embers. Patio heaters heat quickly, provide a lot of heat and are low maintenance.

If you plan on spending a lot of time outdoors this winter on a deck or under a patio, then a patio heater may be perfect for you. See our range of gas patio heaters below:
