Choosing the right gas heater for your home or outdoor space can feel overwhelming, especially with so many options available. Whether you need something to warm a small bedroom, heat a large open-plan living area, or keep guests comfortable on your patio during winter, the type of gas heater you choose makes a real difference to your comfort, safety, and running costs. 

Gas heaters remain a popular choice in South African households because they work independently of the electricity grid, heat rooms quickly, and are generally more cost-effective to run than electric heaters

Our Range of Gas Heaters

Our gas heater range covers everything from compact portable units for smaller rooms to powerful patio heaters built for outdoor entertaining.

Portable Indoor Gas Heaters

Portable indoor gas heaters are ideal for anyone who needs a compact, lightweight heating solution that can be moved from room to room with ease. These units feature ceramic heating tiles that radiate warmth evenly across smaller spaces such as bedrooms, studies, or home offices. 

Models in this range offer auto-ignition for quick, match-free startup, two adjustable heat settings, and built-in safety features, including an oxygen depletion system (ODS) that automatically shuts the heater off if oxygen levels in the room drop too low. These heaters typically use 3kg to 5kg LP gas cylinders and come with a SANS 1237-approved regulator and hose, so they are ready to use straight out of the box.

3-Panel Roll-About Gas Heaters

For larger rooms and open-plan living areas, 3-panel roll-about gas heaters deliver more powerful and widespread warmth. These full-body units feature three ceramic panel tiles that heat up quickly and distribute radiant heat across a wider area. 

Most models include auto ignition, three adjustable heat settings, and an oxygen depletion system for safe indoor use. Swivel castors or wheels make it easy to move the heater between rooms without lifting, and the enclosed cabinet design accommodates a 9kg gas cylinder with a regulator and hose included. 

Some models in this range offer a foldable design for compact storage when not in use, with considerable heating coverage.

Dual Fuel Gas and Electric Heaters

Dual fuel heaters give you the flexibility to switch between LPG gas and electric power, making them particularly practical for South African households dealing with load shedding. 

When the electricity goes out, you can switch to gas; when power is available, you can use the electric mode. These 3-panel heaters feature fully adjustable heat settings, compact modern designs suited to homes and offices, and built-in indoor safety protections. 

Patio Gas Heaters

Patio gas heaters are designed exclusively for outdoor use, keeping your entertainment area warm and comfortable during the colder months. Our range includes several styles to suit different spaces and preferences. 

Traditional mushroom-style patio heaters feature a stainless steel hood on a powder-coated base, a 460mm diameter base for stability, and a flame failure device with tilt switch for safety. These stand at approximately 2,210mm tall and use a 9kg gas cylinder with an included regulator and hose. 

Short-base polo models stand at around 1,350mm and heat at table height, making them well suited to outdoor dining setups. For a more contemporary look, glass tube patio heaters offer a visible flame effect with up to 4,100W of heat output, built-in safety features, and wheels for easy repositioning. 

Pyramid-style patio heaters are also available for those who want a striking visual centrepiece on their patio.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are gas heaters safe to use indoors?

Gas heaters designed for indoor use are safe when used correctly. 

It is important to always use the heater in a well-ventilated room, and to never use an outdoor or patio gas heater indoors, as outdoor models can produce carbon monoxide. Look for heaters that carry LPGSA approval and come fitted with a SANS 1237-approved regulator and hose.

Never sleep with a gas heater on. Always close the safety valve. 

How do I choose the right size gas heater for my room?

The size of your room determines the type and output of gas heater you need. Portable compact heaters with two heat settings are well-suited to smaller rooms such as bedrooms and studies. 

For medium to large living rooms and open-plan spaces, a 3-panel roll-about heater with output up to 4.2kW will provide more even and effective heating. Consider how often you will move the heater between rooms as well; roll-about models with castors make this easier than carrying a portable unit.

What is the difference between a gas heater and a dual fuel heater?

A standard gas heater runs exclusively on LPG or natural gas. A dual fuel heater can operate in both gas mode and electric mode, allowing you to switch between the two depending on circumstances. 

This is especially useful during load shedding, when you can switch to gas heating without interruption. Dual fuel models offer the same ceramic panel heating and adjustable heat settings as standard gas heaters, with the added convenience of electric backup.

How long does a gas cylinder last in a gas heater?

The duration depends on the size of the cylinder and the heat setting you use. A 9kg gas cylinder used with a 3-panel roll-about heater will typically last longer on a lower heat setting than on maximum output. 

Portable heaters that use smaller 3kg to 5kg cylinders will need refilling more frequently, though their lower gas consumption helps offset this. Running the heater on a moderate setting and turning it off once the room has warmed up is a practical way to extend the life of each cylinder.

Browse our full range of gas heaters to find the right model for your home or patio. Whether you need a compact portable unit for a single room, a powerful roll-about heater for the whole family, or a stylish patio heater for outdoor entertaining, there is something in the range to suit your space and budget.
