Why buy an outdoor butane gas stove?

Outdoor gas stoves

They provide a great calorific value, which is what interests us, and they also have a higher power than electric ones. As fuel, they can use butane or propane gas. As recommendations, it is advisable to keep a distance, as well as to avoid animals approaching them.

Among their main advantages, the fact that they cover a wide radius of action, as well as that they have high performance, stands out. Also, remember that outdoor gas stoves cannot be located in semi-closed rooms, due to emissions. Nor would they fit inside a room with standard ceilings.

How to choose an outdoor stove?

It depends, first of all, on the type of use you are going to make. If you are a professional in the hospitality industry, you should opt for the mushroom-shaped one and, if it is for home, a pyramidal one, but which one is each? We show you below:

Mushroom outdoor butane gas stoves

The name actually comes from the shape of the head and is It is mainly used in hotels, on outdoor terraces, as it also represents significant financial savings. As for the bottle, it is hooked to the hood and then remains hidden inside the metal frame

The heat is emitted by the metal mesh that surrounds (and protects) the burner itself. The power can be easily regulated. Also, the eave of the upper area distributes the heat downwards and evenly. In some models, the heat reaches up to a diameter of three meters. In its finishes, steel and painted metal prevail.

Pyramid outdoor butane gas stoves

They are characterized by their pyramidal shape. And, instead of a circular burner, they have an incandescent tube from which the heat is transmitted, provided with an attractive flame. They also shine for their special design, which is why they look great on outdoor terraces or patios, even in hotels.

However, its exclusive use is recommended in totally outdoor spaces (as mentioned above), due to the emission of polluting gases, which would be unable to escape in a space closed or semi-closed. 

Models of outdoor stoves

Once we have decided on a gas stove, the next thing is to choose the model, which will always depend on the room that we want to heat Thus, pyramid stoves come in different sizes in height: from the practical 1.85 meters to the standard 2.25.

The mushroom ones also usually reach 2.25 meters and can achieve a heat output of up to 13.5 kilowatts. Many models come with wheels at the bottom, for easy portability. And, to give you an idea about its duration, the burning time can reach 50 hours.

Classes of gas stoves

Those with radiant gas have a high-power infrared burner, up to four thousand watts. They can heat rooms of 30 square meters. For their part, catalytic stoves emit heat through a panel by radiation. They are ideal for terraces of 25 square meters. If you use the thermostat, you save 30%.

Finally, those that work with a blue flame are the safest. In addition, they are the ones that consume the least, as ignition occurs at a really high temperature. Furthermore, they have two heat outlets: the front and the top. They are also recommended in rooms of 35 square meters. They also have a longer useful life, which results in savings.
