Fire Sense Commercial Series Patio Heater (Onyx and Stainless) at a glance
What we like
- 48,000 BTU output with a piezo ignition and tip-over protection, per the maker
- Weighs about 39 lbs assembled, so it's easier to move than the Pro Series
- Wheels and a wide base for stability; uses a standard 20-lb tank
Trade-offs
- Hammered powder-coated steel with stainless accents, rather than the Pro Series' full #304 stainless build
- About 10 hours per 20-lb tank, and the tank isn't included
- The listing we read doesn't mention a replacement-parts warranty like the Pro Series carries
- Best for
- Budget-minded buyers who want a tall propane heater they can roll around the patio.
- Skip it if
- You want the sturdiest build and the strongest warranty.
- Output: 48,000 BTU
- Height: 86"
- Weight: 39 lbs
- Run time (20-lb tank): About 10 hours
