The Rasmussen – Bromic Tungsten Smart-Heat™ Portable Gas Patio Heater is a premium, freestanding radiant heater designed to outperform traditional “mushroom” heaters in both comfort and efficiency. Using a high-intensity ceramic burner and a directional reflector, it projects a wide, even “wall of heat” that keeps people warm across the actual seating area—not just directly under the head.
With heat coverage up to about 200 sq. ft. in typical conditions (approximately 13 ft wide x 16 ft deep), this heater is ideal for residential patios, restaurant terraces, event spaces, and outdoor lounges. The fully enclosed burner system, curved mesh guard, and contoured design help it maintain performance in winds up to about 7.5 mph, where basic heaters start to struggle.
Available with Liquid Propane (LP) or Natural Gas (NG) fuel options, the Tungsten Smart-Heat Portable combines soft-touch controls, tilting heater head, and built-in wheels for precise, user-friendly comfort. The stand breaks down for easier storage and transport, making this a flexible solution for spaces that change layout with the season or event schedule.

Far More Efficient Than Standard Mushroom Heaters
The Tungsten Smart-Heat Portable is described as up to 300% more efficient than typical portable gas heaters, converting more gas into usable radiant warmth rather than letting it drift away.
