		<description><![CDATA[Patio heaters come in a wide range of types. You can choose from various energy sources - solar, propane, natural gas and electric - to keep your outdoor entertainment area warm and cozy. Different styles such as table top and floor models are also available.]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Patio heaters use different types of fuel.  There are heaters that use natural gas.  Some heaters use propane gas and some heat up with solar energy.  Heaters which can be operated using electricity are also available.</p>
<p>Natural gas heaters are available in different shapes and sizes.  This heater requires only a small quantity of natural gas.  This makes the heater an inexpensive option.  The only criterion is that it needs to be kept in a place where there is ventilation.</p>
<p>Some people prefer propane heaters because propane gas is cheaper than natural gas.  Propane gas comes in tanks and this makes them the most frequently chosen option for tabletop heaters.  These propane heaters also should be kept in well-ventilated places.  Propane heaters are a very effective way to make your patio warm during barbecues or dinner parties.</p>
<p>Solar heaters work with the energy they derive from the sun.  Similarly the electrical heaters make use of electricity to heat up the area.</p>
<p>All these heaters come with a user manual for easy reference.  As with all home appliances, you should follow safety standards for patio heaters as well. Most of the heaters come with an electric starter and thus avoid the use of matches.  Similarly, most heaters have an automatic shut off option also.  This helps in avoiding unnecessary accidents.</p>
<p>Whatever type of patio heater seems right for your outdoor environment, you can count on these devices to help you and your guests enjoy a cool evening outdoors.</p>
