TYPES OF FIRE FEATURES
FIRE PIT
Our most popular option, the fire pit comes in a variety of shapes, sizes, and materials.
FIREPLACE
A fireplace offers a homey feel to your outdoor space and can be a significant heat source and centerpiece for conversation.
FIRE TABLE
A distinctive and functional option, a fire table can be used in a similar way to a fire pit or as a centerpiece for an outdoor table. They are typically gas or electric and keep the surrounding space warm and cozy.
FIRE BOWLS
A modern twist on the standard fire pit, a fire bowl can be decorative or functional depending on the space.
DESIGN, MATERIAL, FUEL SOURCE
Where you build your fire feature depends on the layout of your property. Some things to consider include access from your house, the slope of your yard, how it fits into other backyard features, and the type of design. We have top designers at E.A. Quinn who are ready to create a 3D rendering so you can see exactly how it will look in your space.
Once you decide which type of fire feature you would like to install, it will be time to select a material. The choices for material vary depending on the type of fire feature you choose. The inner wall of a fire pit will be made of fireproof material. The outer walls must be resistant to heat but can be made of brick, stone, or concrete pavers.
Traditionally, a fire feature is wood burning, but we have seen a large increase in the desire for propane. That’s because it’s easy! Some of the advantages of propane include no smoke, cleanup, or prep. That means you can turn it on for an hour to enjoy and then turn it off when you are ready to leave. Wood burning features are popular too because it creates an experience. Building a fire can be a fun family/group activity that sparks bonding and conversation.
