Enhance Your Outdoors With a Fire Pit


!±8± Enhance Your Outdoors With a Fire Pit

If you're planning to spruce up your backyard this summer, don't forget to include a fire pit. Fire pits can make a wonderful addition to any outdoor landscaping. They are attractive, versatile, safe and easy to use. Include this feature as a focal point for any outdoor area.

Enjoy the functionality

Most areas allow controlled burning in a fire pit. You can use yours to burn sticks and brush which collect in your yard throughout the year. This is a great alternative to using paper lawn bags which are bulky, awkward and removed from your curb only on dates specified by your town. Don't wait to get rid of that yard waste! Burning in your fire pit provides a safe, convenient alternative.

Enjoy the ambiance

Looking for a little romance? What better way to set the mood than with a fire burning, a glass of wine or champagne and some quiet music in the background? You can get close to that special someone on a cool August evening by the romantic light of an outdoor fire. Smell the fresh air, listen to the crickets in the distance and watch the fireflies light up the yard.

Enjoy your family

Fire pits can be fun for the whole family. Use them to spend some quality time together. Between work, appointments, school and sports, family time can be tricky to find. Make the most of your unscheduled time together by roasting marshmallows, making some old fashioned s'mores, or just taking a moment to reconnect. Make the hectic week go more quickly and smoothly when you're looking forward to spending that special time together.

Practice fire safety

Position your fire pit where it can be a focal point of your yard, or a little hide away. Make sure, though, that you position it in a safe place. The surface area beneath the fire pit can become very hot. A noncombustible material such as brick or cement is a safe choice. You can get patio bricks from your local home improvement store for temporary placement beneath the fire pit.

Keep your fire pit at a safe distance from dry brush, houses and plants. Sparks can fly from the fire pit and ignite other materials. Keep your flame at a controlled level. Most importantly, always supervise children when they are near an open flame and keep a garden hose handy in case the fire gets out of control.
