Introducing the Herschel Rio 2500W – the ultimate in outdoor heating elegance.

Delivering radiant warmth from its designer aesthetic, Rio’s ceramic glass finish is designed to provide a warm, cosy glow whilst minimising any glare.  Rio is the ideal outdoor heating solution for those seeking high-end design for restaurant, bar and hotel terraces, as well as being the perfect addition to home patios. Designed using the latest high-efficiency, woven carbon-fibre technology, combined with its sleek ceramic-glass screen, Rio is engineered to deliver a balanced, comfortable spread of warmth. Rio emits a soft ambient glow creating a warm, inviting atmosphere and extending your evenings in effortless style.

With a warm up time of just 5-10 seconds, the high power 2.5kW Rio glass electric patio heater comes with a simple to use remote control. The remote control provides 3 power* levels; 33%, 66%, 100%, choose your ideal comfort level outdoors even if the temperature changes around you. Rio also features a bypass switch to bypass the remote* control where hardwire control is preferred via a switching device such as a push button timer. Alternatively, the heater can be simply operated via the on/off buttons.

The high protection afforded by Rio’s IP55 rating will allow it to be mounted outdoors all year round. Designed for maximum effectiveness, Rio is manufactured to withstand the effects of weather and be exposed to rainfall.  The Rio offers maximum versatility on installation for every space, with both wall or ceiling mounting available. Furthermore, a stand option (available for purchase separately) will allow Rio to be used as a freestanding heater wherever it is needed. Featuring a hidden integrated power cable, this premium adjustable stand is suitable for both domestic and commercial use. The stainless steel stand in a black powder coated finish extends between 1.1m and 2.1m and comes with a 2.6m power lead, from the base of the stand, with UK plug.  Easy assembly with IP68 rated push-fit power lead connectors. The power lead to the heater is hidden in the pole and under the base. Both the stand and the heater are weather protected and suitable for outdoor use all year round. Stand requires assembly. As standard, when wall or ceiling-mounting, the Rio does not come with a fitted plug.

As always in exposed areas with air movement and wind, infrared spread may reduce by 1/3 to 1/2.  In these areas we recommend mounting at the lowest height and proportionally increasing the number of heaters.

With its cutting-edge, energy-efficient technology, designer finish, and exceptional build quality, the Herschel Rio 2500W is the pinnacle of luxurious patio design.
