Dimplex - New OPD outdoor heater from Dimplex heats people, not
the planet
With the average gas patio heater emitting more CO2
in a year than a gas-guzzling 4x4 car*, the efficient
new OPH electric patio heater from Dimplex offers an
economical and environmentally-friendly alternative for
outdoor use.
The new range produces a highly directional beam of
short wavelength radiant heat, to cover an area of
9-12sqm (dependent on model) extremely effectively.
People within the beam’s range feel the warmth
instantly, literally within seconds, in the same way as
they do with the sun’s rays, as natural sunlight is rich
in short wavelength heat. Because the OPH warms the
people and objects within the ‘throw’ of the unit, not
the air in between, no heat is lost to the environment.
This keeps running costs down, as low as 10p an hour, a
far cry from running a gas heater that requires constant
supplies of gas, bottled and distributed with all the
carbon intensive activities that are involved. This is
before you consider the extra convenience of a heater
that is always ready to go.
For further economy, the OPH patio heater can be linked
to Dimplex’s range of timers and PIR detector switches,
which automatically switch the unit/s on or off
depending on whether the area below the heater is
occupied. If the space does empty for any reason, the
unit is simply switched off until it’s required again,
with a warm glow indicating when the OPH is in use.
The OPH is available as a twin element 1.3kW quartz
infra-red model for smaller patios, or as a 2kW halogen
version with single Philips element for larger spaces.
The heaters can be either permanently wall-mounted or
optional fixing kits for parasol or hung mounting
arrangements are available. The rugged aluminium design
complements both domestic and commercial settings and
both models are IPX4 water ingress rated for safety in
all environments.
