What kind of outdoor heating hire do we offer at Expo Hire Thames Valley
The unpredictability of British weather can make hosting an outdoor event a challenge but you can at least be sure to keep your guests warm with patio heater hire. Event organisers rent patio heaters from us throughout the year so that they are less reliant on good weather. We deliver patio heaters for hire throughout Berkshire, South Oxfordshire and Surrey.
We offer two kinds of outdoor patio heaters for hire; electric and LPG. Electric patio heaters are great solutions when it’s a specific enclosed space to heat up as they provide a focused heat from their lamp. If it’s an outdoor space then LPG patio heater hire is a much better answer as these produce much more heat in a radial pattern.
We’ve built up a fair old bit of experience in patio heater hire and learning from this we really think we have the best gas patio heaters for hire on the market. They’re all easy to start and are fuel efficient so you get value for money. We also supply 13kg LPG canisters separately so you don’t need to worry about getting hold of fuel.
For very large spaces we recommend our space heaters for hire. These are a much more powerful version of a gas heater and kick off a tremendous amount of heat which can warm up a much larger amount of space.

We're very proud at Expo Hire Thames Valley of our commitment to safety with LPG products. All of our gas products are regularly checked and tested by Gas Safe engineers, for safety.
Evidence of this can be provided upon request, once your order has been confirmed. Please Note: All gas equipment from Expo Hire is supplied with a hose and bayonet fitting that can be connected directly to the standard bayonet fitting on your LPG bottles.
Our drivers cannot connect or set up equipment for you. If you are not comfortable with this, please seek advice from a qualified gas engineer.
