Description

SunStar PHS Stainless Portable Patio Heater Features

  • Built In Safety: UL listed with a flame failure safety device as standard, plus a weighted base that helps prevent tip over.
  • Wheel Kit Included: Roll the heater to where people are sitting, and out of the way for storage at the end of the season.
  • Cup Holders In The Base: Four cup holders built into the base, each holding up to a 32 oz cup, so guests have somewhere to set drinks.
  • Stainless Steel Finish: A stainless steel finish that holds up outdoors and looks at home on a restaurant patio or a modern backyard.

SunStar PHS Stainless Portable Patio Heater FAQ

How much area does the PHS heat?

SunStar rates it for a 20 ft diameter circle of radiant heat. Wind and an open sky shrink that, so on breezy nights keep the seating close.

What size propane tank does it take?

A standard 20 lb propane cylinder, the same tank used on most gas grills. It sits inside the weighted base.

Does it need power to light?

No. It uses a matchless piezo ignition and needs no electricity at all.

Is this portable propane patio heater safe around guests?

It is UL listed, has a flame failure device that shuts off the gas if the flame goes out, and a weighted base to help prevent tip over. Follow the clearances in the manual linked below.

Can I get a cover for it?

Yes. The SunStar black heater cover (44033000) is listed under the optional add-ons below.

What is the difference between the PHJ and PHS?

The heater, output and features are the same. The PHJ is a black and silver texturized painted finish; the PHS is stainless steel.
