Backyard Living: Fireplaces and Fire Pits

11/27/2017

 
In most parts of the country, backyards host activities throughout the year. Thus, regardless of the prevailing weather conditions, adding a source of warmth keeps the fun going. 


You can accomplish this using different equipment such as patio heaters or even grills. However, there are not so efficient, and the best way involves adding fire features to the swimming pool area.  The installations burn either wood or propane to generate heat. Designing them may demand stonework and plumbing.  


Whichever the case –gas or wood –fire features make the backyard exquisite, refined, and comfy. You never have to worry about chilly nights! Here are some fire feature to consider: 


Fireplace


An outdoor fireplace stands gallantly against the wind, offering warmth and relaxation. It can improve the appearance of the pool area, and compliment the house. When located at the pool's edge, fireplaces provide light as well as warmth. 


Sometimes, an imposing fireplace, one build with brick and mortar, can become the statement piece of any project. When installing, you select between a pre-fabricated item, or custom build one using a myriad of materials and finishes. The colors can vary depending on other features in the backyard such as the patio. 


One great idea to try is a double fireplace; having the main chimney of the house branching off to two fireplaces, on the inside and the other outside. 


Fire Pits


You have probably seen this piece in most backyard installations. It is because of its simplicity, and low cost. Some range from three to six feet across depending on the size available. One the market you will find numerous pre-fabricated fire pits that are portable. Also, you can have a constructor design and build one, depending on your specifications. The setup can utilize wood, or propane which requires the homeowner to plan for gas supply lines. That is why many opt for the simple wood fire pit. Cleaning and setting up is less demanding and provides more authenticity. 


Whatever you go for, gas or wood, the fire pit can become, the center of all the evening activities. 


Fire Walls 


Firewalls are not so conventional; they are emerging trends in backyard design, classier and alluring than other features. Even so, they are quite unsophisticated, consisting of a wall with fire coming out from the top. Some walls have a water feature, for instance, you can create a firewall adjacent to the pool. 


Combined with the calming sounds of a waterfall edge in the pool, they will accentuate a backyard.


Alternative Fire Features


Additional fire features include table or bar pits. You can purchase and install this in any environment. Unlike other installations which require the input of experts, no skills are needed, and the setup is fast. Accentuate the style of your garden by adding these pits. You can select among various shapes, designs, and finishes. 


With all these fire features, at your disposal, don't fail to wow and impress, and create the best living space possible.
