Outdoor Heater

[TomAtAlki]

I want to have an overhead outdoor heater installed on my balcony. Does anyone have a resourse or even a name in Spanish for that type of heater. Any leads would be appreciated.

Thanks, T/

Maybe someone at Starbucks Alto Palermo can give you some advice?

Sheila has those big radiant gas overhead heaters in her studio in the US, and they work great, but I have been on Tom's balcony, and that heater is a bit of overkill.
Plus, 18,000 pesos plus installation?
this style, of electric radiant heater, is cheaper and easier to install- but still pricy.

what you want is called a calefactor (heater) exteriores
