Key Facts — Powermat PM-NAG-45GLN Gas Space Heater
- Brand: Powermat
- Model: PM-NAG-45GLN
- Type: LPG space heater with fan and thermostat
- Heat output: 45,000 W
- Airflow: 850 m³/h
- Gas consumption: max 2.18 kg/h
- Weight: 5.9 kg
- A+ / A++ - G
The Powermat gas heater delivers 45 kW and pushes 850 m³/h through a five-blade fan, enough to bring an unheated workshop, hall or warehouse up to temperature quickly. The thermostat with LCD display then holds that level instead of running the unit flat out for the whole shift.
The heater runs on propane or butane and connects to a 5 or 11 kg cylinder through the 150 cm gas hose. Ignition is piezoelectric, so no lighter or external power source is needed to start the flame. The fan is driven by a 70 W motor on standard 230 V, with a 140 cm mains lead.
An overheat cut-off shuts off the gas supply if temperature climbs too far, and the regulator is rated IP44. The complete unit weighs 5.9 kg and measures 505 x 220 x 340 mm, so it carries one-handed between work areas.
When does the Powermat gas heater make the most sense?
When a space needs heating fast and only during working hours. 45 kW and 850 m³/h mean rapid warm-up, but consumption follows: at full output it burns 2.18 kg an hour, emptying an 11 kg cylinder in roughly five hours. The thermostat is what changes the economics — once the target temperature is reached, consumption drops instead of the gas burning continuously.
How the gas heater is used in workshops, halls and warehouses
The unit stands on the floor and is aimed at the area to be heated, with the cylinder alongside within the 150 cm hose reach. Typical uses are heating workshops and garages through the winter, temporary heat on construction sites and in halls, drying out storage space, and spot heating during installation work in unheated areas.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Can the Powermat PM-NAG-45GLN gas heater be used in living spaces?
No. The unit is intended for workshops, halls and warehouses and requires good ventilation, since the combustion gases enter the room along with the heat. The regulator is rated IP44, meaning it withstands splashes but not jet washing or direct exposure to weather. Position the heater so the cylinder sits outside the hot air stream, with the 150 cm hose as the practical reach.
How long does one LPG cylinder last with the Powermat gas heater?
At full output the heater consumes 2.18 kg of gas per hour, giving roughly 2.3 hours on a 5 kg cylinder and just over 5 hours on an 11 kg one. With the thermostat active, consumption falls as soon as the target temperature is reached, because the unit does not run at maximum continuously. Working pressure is 0.7 bar, which calls for the correct propane or butane regulator.
What separates the Powermat gas heater from an electric site heater?
Output per connection. Producing 45 kW electrically would demand a heavy three-phase supply, whereas this unit draws only 230 V and 70 W for the fan — the rest of the energy comes from the cylinder. That makes it independent of the building's electrical capacity at 5.9 kg, but in return it needs ventilation and a supply of LPG, which an electric heater does not.
