Things To Consider Before Buying Outdoor Fireplace.

Do you know that outdoor fireplaces increase the property value of your home? They help to make good memories that can be ever made. Nowadays, every outdoor fireplace comes in a very stylish design, a roundtable, and a heater all in one. Before you search for the best fireplace according to your desire, you need to look into detailed features more subjectively. 

As you are looking for the correct one to install in your home, there are few things that you need to consider. In this optimum buying guide, we hope you will get all the information you are looking for. So let’s continue.

1. Determine What Outdoor Fireplace Type You Want

There are two main types of fireplace, and these options are: modular or fixed-in-place. You have three choices from these two options. You will go into those parts later. First, we are going to share with you about the fixed-in-place fireplaces and the modular one.

You can fix the fireplace in a fixed-in-place you choose, and it will become a permanent yard feature. If you want to remove this fireplace from its installation place, you have to demolish it. That is why you need to think correctly and make sure where you want to install it. The fireplace is gorgeous and

You can move the modular fireplaces anywhere in the yard because these are portable. Keep in mind, they do not increase your property value as a fixed asset does, even though you can place these types of fireplaces anywhere you like. If you are one who likes to make changes in your yard or if you want to avoid construction involved in having one built in the ground, then modular fireplaces are grand for you.

It is time for you to go beyond the movable once you have decided on the general fireplace type. Now it is time for us to determine how your fireplace is going to blaze fire. For that, we have three options: Electric, wood-burning, or gas burning.

Out of these three options, a wood-burning fireplace put on the most natural fire burning element. Naturally, like other options, wood-burning fireplaces have their type of pros and cons. These outdoor chimneys will give you the closest campfire experience in your backyard.

On the other hand, gas-burning metal outdoor fireplaces are the most suitable. Just imagine you can turn on the flames of your fireplace only with the flip of a switch. On top of that, the best outdoor gas fireplace can save a minimum of 25% on your energy bill. These outdoor chimneys are generally inexpensive to install.

Electric Fireplaces do not release crackles, emissions, or fumes. As these flames are not real, you can easily control the amount of heat they emit. If you are conscious about the safety of your children or if you are the one who is just looking for a fireplace with minimal upkeep, this is probably the safest option for you.

Before you make a firm decision, you need to check the ordinances given in your country or city regarding the fireplace. This is because there are some countries or cities that don’t allow specific fireplaces or fuels. Another thing is to make sure that you do not need to make any changes to your policy, and for that, you should check with your homeowner’s insurance.

Once everything is checked, or alright regarding all the rules and regulations, it is time for you to choose a specific location.

2. OUTDOOR FIREPLACE LOCATIONS

Picking the perfect location for your fireplace is a very crucial part. This is because it will affect the flow of your entire backyard. You have to make sure the place where you plan to put your wood-burning outdoor fireplaces allows you to handle unexpected issues. We have given some factors you may consider:

Distance From your Home: The general rule is, the distance of any fireplace or fire pit must be at least 10 to 20 feet away from your home. For more specific guidelines, you can also check with your HOA.

Location of Trees & Shrubs: The area should be 10 to 20 feet away from the fireplace, whether these are trees, shrubs, and bushes, or any other flammable backyard things.

Privacy: What do you want your neighbors to see if they peep into your yard? If you are conscious about privacy in your outdoor fireplace area, you may consider where your fireplace is situated and which direction it is facing.

When determining the location of your fireplace, you may want to leave room for safety issues. Finally, you might want to make sure that your metal outdoor Fireplace is easily accessible without being a fire trap. After all these foundational decisions, so let’s move into the budget part.

3. FIREPLACE COST

While you set a budget for your fireplace, you are expecting the servicing cost also. The cost of placing logwood in your wood-burning outdoor fireplace will be different than a glass cleaner to clean the glass. You should keep these things in your mind while planning or thinking of your budget if you have one.

As the wood-burning outdoor fireplaces require periodic log-replacing store trips, that is why they need overall servicing. The ash of these fireplaces requires cleaning too. These are probably the most expensive, according to the cost.

On the other hand, the Electric Burning outdoor fireplaces are the most economical and don’t require many services. Servicing includes just the cleaning of a glass screen.

You can easily convert the gas-burning outdoor fireplaces into wood burning, but they don’t need so much servicing. They require a tiny portion of servicing than the electric burning types.

4. FIREPLACE PURPOSE & HEAT OUTPUT

The three options of fireplaces have different degrees of heat. So again, you should think properly about the function of your fireplace.

If you are plotting to use your fireplace in the winter or cold months, do you want your fireplace to just produce a hot environment for you, or do you expect to roast food with it as well? Just these simple considerations will make all the difference. Generally, Wood Burning fireplaces carry the highest BTU’s, which means they are the hottest too.

5. EXTRA SAFETY TIPS

It is inspiring to look into the process of purchasing the best outdoor gas fireplace. The more you complete the installation process, the more you notice the new atmosphere surrounding your outdoor space. Just before that, you need to consider some safety regarding your outdoor fireplace. So let’s dive into some safety tips:

There should be a fire extinguisher within a close distance from the fireplace.

Clean your outdoor chimney regularly.

Get a fireplace cover to avoid wastes getting into your fireplaces such as sparks and embers.

Make sure that nothing else gets burned.

Instead of using gasoline or starter fluid, always try to use fire starters.

Just taking these little precautions, you will get the most enjoyment out of your best outdoor fireplace.
