Three tubes, wider reach
A single-element heater warms a narrow slice. Three halogen tubes spread radiant heat across a broader band, so a whole seating group or a garage workspace stays comfortable instead of just the person directly in front.

At a Glance
Take the chill off the patio without firing up propane. The Optimus PHP-1500DIR stands on the floor and uses three halogen tubes to throw sun-like infrared heat across a wide area, so a seating group or a garage workspace stays comfortable. It runs on ordinary household power, works silently, and holds its warmth even in a breeze.
We would rather you know this now than after it arrives.
How many heating tubes does it have? Three halogen tubes, for a wider spread of radiant heat than a single-element heater.
What are the heat settings? Three levels: 500, 1000, and 1500 watts, adjustable by remote.
Can it get wet? It is IP34 splash and dust resistant for covered outdoor use, but should not sit in driving rain.
Is it noisy? No. Infrared heat is silent, with no fan.
Does the height adjust? Yes. You can adjust the height to aim the warmth where you want it.
Set the heater on a firm, level surface under cover with clearance on all sides, well away from furniture, curtains, and anything flammable. Never cover the tubes or leave it in driving rain. Unplug and let it cool fully before moving or cleaning, and wipe the steel housing with a dry cloth only.

A single-element heater warms a narrow slice. Three halogen tubes spread radiant heat across a broader band, so a whole seating group or a garage workspace stays comfortable instead of just the person directly in front.
Propane and forced-air heaters lose ground to every gust. Infrared warms people and surfaces directly rather than heating the air, so a breeze on a covered patio does not carry your comfort away, and it runs in silence.
Adjustable height lets you point the warmth toward seated guests or a workbench, and the included remote steps the output between 500, 1000, and 1500 watts without making you get up from your chair.
Floor-standing infrared with a wide, quiet reach.
Single-element heaters warm a narrow spot. Three tubes spread the heat across a wider area, so more of your seating group feels it at once.
Propane units roar and blow out in wind. Silent infrared radiates warmth onto people and surfaces and holds up far better against a breeze.
Gas heaters mean tanks, refills, and open flame. This one runs on ordinary household power, so there is nothing to refill and no flame to manage.

Wonderful indoor heater for sitting in cold rooms
Perfect product for home offices that are cold. Provides instant comfort. Or refuge in a cold house. Far safer than lower (and more expensive) radiant heaters we have, which can melt or ignite nearby office chair, file boxes, etc. I only wish it were available in white.
My fault
I didn't realize this is an ELECTRIC heater, and not one fueled by propane. My bad. I returned it
Great electric outdoor heater for patio
Love it for visiting outside in cooler weather during covid
Industrial Setting
we do not use these for the intended purpose, we have hard plastic parts that are very hard to install but the heat makes them more pliable, works well in this capacity and have been on 24/7 for several months now. no issues to report
