Hi- I have a concrete patio that I would like to heat so we can be more comfortable outside. I am a bit worried about the sunshade getting too hot or if it would catch on fire! I would like to put the heater up in the eves of the house about 3 feet away from the heater and 7 feet or so from the patio. Do I use infrared? Put the gas heater on the ground? In the planter next to the patio?
I would like it to be up and out of the way.

Thanks!
