Yes, for any temporary structures or equipment in Evanston parks, it's best to consult with the city's Parks and Recreation department for permit requirements.
What kind of power do your outdoor heaters require?
Our standard patio heaters use propane, alleviating the need for electrical outlets and offering flexible placement anywhere on your property.
Can you deliver to my rooftop deck in Downtown Evanston?
Delivery to rooftop decks is often possible, but requires advance notice to assess access and ensure a smooth, safe setup. Please inform us during booking.
How many heaters do I need?
Plan one mushroom heater per 100–150 sq ft. A 20×40 tent typically needs 5–7 patio heaters or 1–2 forced-air units.

Can heaters be used inside a tent?
Mushroom and tower patio heaters require proper clearance. Indoor-rated forced-air units are recommended for fully-enclosed tents.
