In order to support the suffering hospitality sector, politicians, stakeholders and associations are currently discussing about allowing outdoor heaters, radiant heaters and patio heaters operated using LPG in outdoor areas until further notice, <\/strong> where they are currently prohibited.<\/p>
\n
\n This means that, for example, restaurants, bars and pubs <\/strong>may use the devices to make their outdoor areas a bit more comfortable for their guests. The heaters provide good heat, for example, in autumn as the days gradually get cooler.<\/p>
\n
\n This means that hospitality businesses can have more trade in their outdoor areas for longer, which will lead to more sales. An important source of revenue<\/strong>, as almost all companies have lost usable space indoors because of the hygiene regulations.<\/p>
\n
\n The guests also benefit: There is more capacity available; tables in favourite pubs are not fully booked for weeks on end. In addition, there are many who prefer to enjoy food, a drink or spending a coffee break with friends in the fresh air. This is possible thanks to heating equipment such as outdoor heaters, radiant heaters or patio heaters, because guests are supplied with comfortable heat<\/strong> when the outside temperatures fall.<\/p>

\n Before now, cities have prohibited the operation of these heaters in the commercial sector, as they are deemed to be hazardous to the environment. In contrast to this, the operation of gas heaters and similar devices by private individuals is virtually unrestricted<\/strong>.<\/p>
\n And here comes the “But”<\/strong>: Of course, operators must continue to observe the basic rules for the safe handling of gas heaters \u2013 both for commercial and private use:<\/p>
\n
\n Now, we summarise important points<\/strong> from this article:<\/p>
\n
\n Due to the coronavirus and its consequences for the hospitality sector, there is the possibility that the existing ban on gas heaters in the commercial sector might be cancelled temporarily. Firstly, hospitality businesses benefit from this as well as their guests.<\/p>
\n
\n Recommendation 1: If you, as a business owner, are planning to use a gas heater, please contact your local or city administration beforehand to find out whether you are allowed to do this at all. You can either do your research online or pick up the phone and call the responsible department.<\/p>
\n
\n Recommendation 2: Despite the easing of restrictions, hospitality business owners must ensure safe operation of the LPG systems. These include, in particular, compliance with the regulatory requirements and the use of correct system components such as pressure reducers, gas hoses, excess flow devices or gas anti-tilt devices.<\/p>
\n
\n Should we allow or prohibit gas-operated outdoor heaters and radiant heaters in the outdoor areas of hospitality businesses? For years now, cities and municipalities have asked themselves this question.<\/p>\n The discussion is now becoming more of a hot topic because of coronavirus. The existence of some hospitality businesses is in danger if guests have to stay away. With gas heaters, some businesses would be able to open their outdoor areas even at cooler temperatures.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":8,"featured_media":9234,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[396],"tags":[328,300,309,329,338,287,310],"ausgabe":[],"class_list":["post-9814","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-home-commercial","tag-excess-flow-device","tag-gas-antitilt-device","tag-heating-mantle","tag-hose-assembly","tag-patio-heaters","tag-pressure-regulator","tag-radiant-heater"],"acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9814","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/8"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=9814"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9814\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":14591,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/9814\/revisions\/14591"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/9234"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=9814"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=9814"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=9814"},{"taxonomy":"ausgabe","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/ausgabe?post=9814"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}![\"\"](\"https:\/\/www.gok-blog.de\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/06\/Heizpilz.jpg\" "\\"\\"")
