Whether you are hosting an evening wedding, a ruracio or ngurario, a garden party, a terrace dinner, a corporate cocktail or a tented event with open sides, we help you decide how many heaters you need and where to place them. Tell us your date, venue, guest count and seating layout, and we will recommend a setup.
Gas Patio Heater Hire in Nairobi
The Premium Gas Patio Heater is KES 16,000 per day. It stands 2 m tall, warms a 4 m heat circle and comes with a 13 kg gas cylinder included. We deliver it, test it and collect it after your event. Larger seating areas need more than one heater, and we will help you decide how many to hire and where to place them.
Fans and Coolers
We are adding fans and coolers to our range, and they are not available to hire yet. If you need cooling for a daytime event, send your date, venue and guest count on WhatsApp and we will tell you what we can offer for your event.
Which Heating Is Best for Your Event?
For an evening wedding or reception in a garden or on a terrace, place heaters around the seating and dining areas so guests are warm where they sit longest. For a garden party or birthday, one or two heaters beside the main seating cluster may be enough, and for a corporate cocktail on a terrace, heaters near the standing areas and entrance keep guests comfortable. For a tented event, a gas heater suits open-sided tents and canopies, but fully enclosed marquees need a different approach, so tell us your tent type.
How Much Does Patio Heater Hire Cost in Nairobi?
Patio heater hire in Nairobi is KES 16,000 per day per heater, with the 13 kg gas cylinder included. Your total depends on the number of heaters, the number of days and your venue location. An 80% deposit secures your date, and delivery and collection are quoted separately by distance.
How Many Heaters Do I Need?
There is no one-size-fits-all number. The right quantity depends on the size of the seating area, whether the space is open or covered, the wind, the time of the event and how long guests will sit. Each heater warms a 4 m heat circle, so a layout with several tables or seating clusters usually needs several heaters. Send your guest count, a simple layout sketch or photos of the venue, and we will recommend how many and where to place them.
Safety and Ventilation for Gas Heaters
Gas patio heaters need adequate ventilation and must be positioned according to safe operating clearances, so they are made for open-air seating and open-sided structures and may not suit fully enclosed spaces. Our crew tests the heater and positions it with you, and we recommend keeping guests, decorations and fabrics clear of the unit. Share your venue and tent layout when you enquire so we can advise whether a gas heater suits your setup.
What Is Included in Patio Heater Hire?
Your hire covers the heater with a 13 kg gas cylinder included, testing before the event, positioning by our crew and collection after your event, with delivery and collection quoted separately by distance from our Waiyaki Way yard. You can combine heating with tents, chairs, tables and lounge furniture, lighting and sound and décor in the same quote.

Estates have their own rules, so check with the management office or residents’ association about delivery access, loading hours, noise and parking before your event. For apartments and venues with stairs or lifts, tell us the floor and the access route so the crew can plan the delivery. Send us your estate or town when you enquire, and we will confirm availability and the transport cost.
Outdoor Use, Wind and Weather
Patio heaters are made for outdoor evenings, but wind and weather change how well they work. We cannot control the weather, so if rain or strong wind is possible, tell us and we will advise on placement, for example near a sheltered edge of an open-sided tent. If weather stops an outdoor event, you can choose another venue or agree a suitable new date with us.
How Far in Advance Should You Book a Patio Heater?
We recommend booking 2–4 weeks ahead for weekend events, and 4–6 weeks ahead if you need several heaters or the event falls in a peak period such as December, Easter or August. Last-minute bookings are possible, subject to availability. An 80% deposit secures your date, and the remaining 20% balance is due on delivery, after setup is complete and you have confirmed and accepted all items. Send your date, venue and guest count on WhatsApp at +254 792 788 442 and we will reply with an itemised quote.
