Product Description
The Solaria SCOSYAW15120B, Black, 1500w/ 120v, commercial grade electric heater lamp is an ideal choice for heating outdoor commercial and residential areas such as gazebos, decks, awnings, and open-air terraces in restraunts, clubs, pubs and boat decks. Conventional heating systems produce heat energy in the long and medium waveband. Consequently, this type of heating system offers high transmission losses. Heat rushes out when cold air rushes in when ever doors are opened in a building. The Innovative Quartz Heating shortwave heating Technology provides radiant heat energy which instantly warms people and solid objects within the beam of heat. Why choose solaira quartz heating over natural gas or propane heaters? Low operating cost of approximately $0.15 / hr (based on electricity cost of $0.08 / KW hour). Produces instant heat with no initial warm up time. Provides reliable heat source that won’t blow away or fail to start. Silent and odorless with no products of combustion. Wall mounting maximizes floor space with no storage of bulky propane gas bottles.

I purchased this item on Amazon about a year ago, and it has been awesome. The amount of heat given off by this is pretty amazing. We can now use our deck in the spring and fall! Easy to mount and so far has been trouble free.

Under my gazebo I attached this heater over my patio furniture set Ibis 8 Piece Modern Wicker Outdoor Sectional Furniture Set with Sunbrella Heather Beige (5476-0000) Cushions and it worked out perfect on cold nights.

I thought this was going to work for the area directly above out hot tub, boy was I wrong. I mounted this 8 foot above the front side of the hot tub and angled it so it would heat the area above everyone's head. While mounting it I was extremely happy from looking at the construction, solid metal, great mounting brackets, along with a long cord.
First off from reading other reviews I kept reading 10 x 10 area, in my test we were hoping for 9 x 7 foot section. I was hoping this would take the edge off from the winds that blow thru in the winter months. The plus would be to provide us with a area directly under the heat light to dry off in the warmth.
That night the temperature dropped to 55 degrees and very little wind. So we were ready to try it out. And i felt this would be a EASY test for this to pass.
Outdoor test minimal wind, covered deck.
After plugging the unit in, I wondered around the hot tub to feel the heat, it was almost nothing more then 6 foot directly in-front of the light. I didn't let that ruin the night so we got in the hot tub, I also started realizing my private area in my own back yard was really under the spot light now. This 1500 watt light produces a lot of visible light.
In comparison, I grabbed a yellow bug light and put it in a shop light. The 100 watt bug light was less to at the most about the same brightness of this heat light. The heat produced was good enough to heat the first 3 feet as if I was a hamburger at a fast food restaurant and nearly non existent 6 foot out. But in comparison, you would be better off buying two satco s4998 heat lights that produce about the same heat and far less visible light for over a $250 savings. Along with saving 1000 watts of electricity.
Garage shop area test.
Final test was to try this out in my garage I mounted this on the ceiling about 9 foot above my shop area, I left this on for 10 mins and came back to find it did an fair-OK job warming a closed area, insulated area. After the 10 min test I was satisfied to say this unit works ok indoors, but is far from the manufactures statements comparing this is a outdoor commercial unit.
In conclusion this unit could work if your goal is to heat and light a small enclosed area. If your goal is to heat the outdoors this is not for you unless you are only looking for a small area outside so one person can smoke in the dead of winter without freezing to death
Recommended product instead, each light can easly take the chill off a 4x4 area, or inside 8x12 x 2 lights
