Extend Outdoor Comfort Into Cooler Months

Pro Power Electric installs Infratech electric heaters for residential and commercial porches and outdoor spaces in Charlotte, North Carolina.

Your porch or patio becomes unusable in late fall and winter without a heat source that warms people and surfaces rather than just moving cold air around. Pro Power Electric installs Infratech electric heaters on porches, patios, and outdoor dining areas in Charlotte, providing radiant heat that works instantly and does not require propane tanks, venting, or open flames. We mount heaters to ceilings, walls, or pergola beams, run wiring from your electrical panel, and position each unit to cover seating areas evenly without creating hot spots or glare.

We calculate the wattage needed based on your outdoor space dimensions, ceiling height, and exposure to wind, then recommend heater models and placement that deliver consistent warmth. Each heater connects to a dedicated circuit sized for the electrical load, and we install weatherproof controls so you can adjust heat output without going inside. In Charlotte, we work with common porch designs, including covered decks, open patios, and restaurant seating areas that need year-round usability.

Wiring and Placement for Even Heat Coverage

Infratech heaters emit infrared energy that warms objects and people directly, similar to sunlight, rather than heating the air. We mount each heater at the manufacturer-recommended height to ensure safe clearance above heads and furniture, then angle it to cover your seating area without overheating any single spot. In Charlotte, we run conduit from your breaker panel to each heater location, install weatherproof junction boxes, and connect the heaters to dedicated circuits that prevent overload.

After installation, you will feel warmth within seconds of turning the heaters on, and the heat will remain focused on your porch or patio rather than dissipating into the open air. The units operate silently, produce no emissions, and require no ongoing fuel purchases or tank exchanges.

We install wall-mounted or wireless controls that let you adjust heat levels or set timers for automatic operation. If your porch has multiple heater zones, we can wire each zone to a separate switch so you only run the heaters you need. This setup reduces energy use while maintaining comfort in the areas you occupy most often.

You Likely Have a Few Questions

Homeowners and business owners considering porch heaters often ask about energy use, installation requirements, and how to choose the right model, so we have answered those questions below.

How much electricity do porch heaters use?
Electric porch heaters typically draw between 1,500 and 3,000 watts per unit depending on size and heat output. We calculate your total electrical load before installation to confirm your panel has enough capacity to support the heaters without tripping breakers.
What is the difference between infrared and propane heaters?
Infrared electric heaters provide instant, directional heat without combustion or emissions, while propane heaters require tanks, produce exhaust, and take longer to warm up. Electric heaters also eliminate the need for fuel storage and ongoing propane refills in Charlotte.
How high should porch heaters be mounted?
Most Infratech heaters mount eight to ten feet above the floor to ensure safe clearance and even heat distribution. We follow manufacturer guidelines and adjust mounting height based on your ceiling structure and the size of your outdoor space.
What type of control options are available for porch heaters?
You can choose from basic on-off switches, variable controllers that adjust heat output, timers for automatic operation, or wireless remotes for convenience. We install the control type that matches your usage patterns and budget.
Why do restaurants use electric heaters instead of propane?
Electric heaters eliminate the fire hazard and permitting complexity associated with propane, operate quietly without fumes, and integrate easily with outdoor lighting and sound systems.
