Outdoor Heater Rentals in New Orleans — FAQ
Do I need a permit to use an outdoor heater in a New Orleans park?
Yes, for most city parks, you will likely need to contact the relevant park authority (e.g., City Park or Audubon Park) for permit requirements and approval for outdoor heating equipment. It's best to inquire several weeks before your event.
What kind of surfaces can your heaters be placed on?
Our heaters are designed for stable, level surfaces like patios, decks, grass, or pavement. Please ensure the area is free of overhead obstructions and flammable materials.
Can your outdoor heaters be used under a tent?
For safety reasons, most outdoor heaters are not designed for use under fully enclosed tents without proper ventilation. Please consult with our team and your tent rental company for safe heating solutions for enclosed spaces.
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.
Is propane included?
Most operators include a full propane tank per heater. Extended events may need a refill or second tank.
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.
