More revenue with a heated patio
Research by Koninklijke Horeca Nederland (KHN) shows that hospitality entrepreneurs with patio heating generate, on average, more revenue than those without. According to the study, hospitality businesses with year-round open patios generate an average of 35% of their total revenue from the patio, compared to 28% for patios used only during warmer months.
Specifically, this means:
- Hospitality business with €500,000 revenue
- Patio revenue without heating: ± €140,000
- Patio revenue with year-round heated patio: ± €175,000
- Potential additional revenue: ± €35,000 per year
An investment in good patio heating therefore often pays for itself within one season. Especially since our Heatix patio heaters start from approximately €140 and premium models are around €230 to
Gas heaters are disappearing from the streets at an increasing rate
More and more municipalities in the Netherlands want to get rid of traditional gas heaters on terraces. In cities such as Groningen, measures have already been introduced, and municipalities such as Amsterdam, Leiden, and The Hague are also considering stricter rules or a ban on gas heating on terraces.
In addition, there is increasing European regulation concerning gas heating. Hospitality entrepreneurs who still invest in gas heaters now therefore run the risk that these investments will no longer be future-proof within a few years.
Electric infrared patio heating, on the other hand, is the solution for the future:
- Direct and comfortable radiant heat
- Much more efficient than gas heaters
- No open flame or waste of heat
- Potentially eligible for subsidies
- More sustainable and future-proof
Various subsidy schemes even explicitly state that only non-gas patio heating is eligible for support. This makes electric infrared heating not only more comfortable for guests, but also a smart investment for the future of your hospitality terrace.
