Tent Heating

tables in tent

You can create and control even more than the graceful ambience of sophisticated tent events - you can assure the comfort of your guests!

There's nothing worse than wearing your finest attire only to be too hot or too cold at a wedding or event. But that doesn't mean you lose the option to have your event in a tent - no matter where you live or what the season of the year. Create the ambience of your fantasy with a tent and accessories and make your guests comfortable with rented heating units.

Warm them up

Basically, there are two types of tent heaters: direct-fired and indirect-fired. Indirect-fired units are preferred because they eliminate combustion, which can cause dizziness, burning eyes and nausea.

Another option for larger tents is a sophisticated air-circulation system.

Indirect-fired tent heater features

  • Heat exchanger allows fumes and combustible products to vent away from the heated area
  • Open-flame barrier
  • Power source: propane
  • Optional connectable ducts: allows heater unit to be placed away from tent
  • Optional remote thermostat: allows discretionary temperature settings

A safe direct-fired option

The 8-foot-tall patio heaters feature aluminum umbrellas that reflect heat down toward party guests.

  • Patio heaters work best in chilly (around 50 degrees), but not cold, temperatures
  • These units throw heat between 12 and 15 feet in all directions
  • Rule of thumb: Use one patio heater for every three or four tables
  • These heaters are great for decks and patios also
