This planning guide will help you answer the key questions for choosing and installing an outdoor fireplace.
Outdoor fireplaces continue to grow in popularity with the outdoor room boom fueling the fire. Magazines and web-publishers frequently post beautiful photos of large stone fireplaces and homeowners are now demanding fire places, not just fire pits in their outdoor living rooms.
There is a certain romantic ambiance that surrounds an outdoor fireplace. The glow of the flickering flame invites guests to sit down, relax and enjoy life. Properly designed fire features encourage conversation and sooth the soul. Design and installation of these popular features can be lucrative, but be sure to educate yourself on the proper construction techniques beforehand to avoid costly mistakes.
