For a windy patio, I’d choose the Bromic Platinum Smart-Heat Gas if your budget allows. Its ceramic-glass fascia and enclosed design are specifically engineered for windy conditions, and Bromic rates the Platinum series for up to 10 mph winds; Bromic also says its Platinum design is more wind-resistant than the Tungsten.
