What types of Outdoor Heater Accessories are available and what do they do?
Outdoor heater accessories include controllers, remotes, mounting kits, extension poles, stands, covers, and reflectors. They allow you to operate heaters conveniently, adjust installation height, make units portable, protect them from weather, and improve heat distribution.
Can I install an Outdoor Heater in a high-ceiling home?
Yes, you can. For high-ceiling spaces, a ceiling-mount Heatstrip heater is an ideal solution. These heaters provide targeted warmth for outdoor areas while making the most of your vertical space.
A key advantage is the availability of a heater extension pole kit, which allows you to lower the unit closer to the area that needs heating. This ensures the heat is concentrated where it’s required, creating a comfortable and cozy environment. When planning your installation, consider the size of the area and the heating requirements to optimize effectiveness and energy efficiency.
Can I adjust the position or installation of my outdoor heater?
Yes. Accessories like flush mount kits, extension poles, and brackets let you install heaters at different heights or angles to suit your space. Portable stands also allow you to move heaters to different locations without ceiling or wall mounting.
Can Heatstrip heaters be wireless and include a timer?
Yes. The Heatstrip DIY Plug-in Controller & Remote (TT-MTR-PLUG) adds wireless control and timer functionality to your Heatstrip heaters.
The system includes a remote and a wall plug-in timer unit.
You can remotely turn heaters on and off and select timers for 1, 2, or 4 hours.
Multiple units can be controlled simultaneously, and the slimline wall unit allows side-by-side installation in standard double outlets.
The controller is also compatible with any standard 10A Australian wall socket, making it a versatile solution for other appliances as well.
With this setup, your outdoor heaters become convenient, wireless, and programmable for efficient energy use and comfort.
How can I control my Outdoor Heater remotely?
Wireless controllers and plug-in remotes allow you to turn heaters on or off and set timers from a distance. Some models can control multiple heaters at once, providing convenience and energy efficiency.
What if I cannot mount a Heatstrip Heater on the ceiling or wall?
If ceiling or wall installation isn’t possible, there are portable stand options:
Heatstrip Nano Portable Heater Stand (for THN2000 model)
Height adjustable and rotatable to direct heat where needed
Stable base and easy portability for both indoor and outdoor use
Heatstrip Premium Stand (for all electric Heatstrip heaters 2400W & under)
Converts wall or ceiling-mounted heaters into portable units
Provides flexibility to move the heater to different areas for spot heating
Both options offer practical, mobile heating solutions, ensuring warmth even when traditional mounting isn’t feasible.
Are Outdoor Heater Accessories compatible with all heater models?
Most accessories are designed for specific models, such as Heatstrip heaters. Always check the product specifications to ensure compatibility before purchasing
