Fire pits are great places to gather people around. They are an easy way to utilize open space in your back yard and create a zone for conversations at night or during times when the temperature cools down a bit. Fire pits come in many shapes and sizes.
Here are some other tips about fire pits:
- Check with your HOA and/or local authorities before installing a fire pit
- Keeping the fire pit lower helps with heat and gives a nice place to rest your feet. About 18 to 20 inches is the ideal height
- You’ll need about 5 to 7 feet around the edge for chairs and movement around the fire pit.
- It is recommended to keep fire pits at least 10 feet from your house
- Pavers around your fire pit adds a layer of protection and defines the space aesthetically.
