Fire Pit Pre-Installation Checklist

Fire pits are one of the most popular additions to an Orange County backyard. However, it is important to ensure that you go through this checklist before installation.

  1. Check with your homeowner’s association about the regulations of fire pit installation.
  2. Always have a fire extinguisher ready.
  3. Your fire pit placement is of the essence, and it should be at least 10-feet away from any flammable structure.
  4. Always plan a firebreak when designing your fire pit
  5. Always seek professional installation from a reputable company

Types of Fire Pits

Fire pits can generally be grouped into categories, and this would depend on the type of fuel each uses. Let’s run down the list of the fuel types used for fire pits to help you choose which one is most ideal for your backyard needs:

Wood Burning Fire Pits

This type of fire pit is a replica of a natural campfire. If you’re looking for an authentic experience while enjoying the warmth from the wood-burning, this is the best choice for you.

Gel Fuel Fire Pits

If you’re looking for portability, versatility, quality flames, and unique design, gel fuel pits are most ideal for your needs. There are two kinds of designs for this type: the tabletop fireplace and the gel-fueled logs.

Fire Pit Styles and Features

The choice of which fire pit style to choose will depend on your outdoor space and personal taste. Some of the most common styles are:

  • Fire bowls – Often not permanently installed and therefore can be moved around any graveled space.
  • BBQ fire pits – These are more functional and can be used for barbecuing or socializing during COVID-19.
  • Fire rings – Offer space for a group to sit around the fireplace comfortably in U or circle shapes.
  • Fire table – These are very modern outdoor fireplaces that are ideal for creating a special atmosphere. It is possible to make these safer by encasing the area in fire glass to contain the flame. Fire glass can also refer to tempered glass, which sits in the basin of firepits and becomes a visual delight.

Fire pits can double as ideal patio heaters that provide excellent warmth. This means any outdoor living space becomes functional throughout the evening and nights.
