Greenhouse Gas Heaters

Greenhouse heaters are heating appliances tailored for use in a greenhouse environment. Gas greenhouse heaters are ideal for both gardeners and garden businesses as they are highly useful and practical appliances for maintaining heat in the greenhouse. Almost all greenhouse gas heaters run on LPG which has always been the most popular choice for heating requirements

These heaters are ideal for protecting plants all year round, particularly during cold winter spells and are even beneficial during poor summers to ripen fruits.
Designed for safe and efficient operation, the gas greenhouse heater will provide a desired amount of heat in all greenhouse environments. 

Features

The majority of gas greenhouse heaters come in high-quality, robust, stainless steel casing to ensure their status as long term investments. They are also available in various coloured finishes, including green, which will blend with greenhouse environments. The gas greenhouse heater is made to the highest of safety standards, with safety cut-off features and a flame failure device, a major benefit for this type of heater to ensure they burn safely.

They are convector heaters, meaning that they work efficiently by collecting the coolest air, heating it and expelling it at speed. LPG Greenhouse Heaters are designed to give a moderate increase in temperature to a large volume of air rather than a higher increase to small quantities. 

They are fitted with thermostats to enable temperature control, push button ignition as well as flame failure devices.

Most of these models are manually ignited, and are then switched off by turning the valve on the gas bottle. Greenhouse gas heaters are available in various sizes to suit all domestic greenhouses, and can even extend their use for conservatories, providing heat where there may not be a central heating system. Given the powerful heat that these appliances produce, they can also be used in larger commercial greenhouses. 

Benefits

The LPG greenhouse heaters burn safely, and are more economical to run than other gas alternatives such as paraffin. These heaters provide further economic benefits when they are incorporated with thermostats, which detect the ambient temperature. The heater is automatically switched off when it has reached the desired temperature, and then switched on again when the temperature has fallen.

The thermostat will operate more accurately if the heater is raised off the floor of the greenhouse, as this will reduce the effect of the cold from the floor.
