OUTDOOR SPACES
Fire pits and fireplaces provide a cozy outdoor space.
Adding a fire pit or outdoor fireplace to your backyard can create a much cozier atmosphere. Whether you choose a wood-burning fire pit or a modern gas-powered outdoor fireplace, you can create a new focal point with function. The right fireplace or fire pit can elevate your outdoor space.
Outdoor fireplaces and fire pits have a few key differences. A fire pit is more budget-friendly and offers a more traditional experience. If you’re looking to bring more structure to your backyard, an outdoor fireplace can be a great option, bringing the indoors outside.

Comparison
Fire Pits vs Fireplaces
Fire features have gained in popularity over the last twenty years. It is now very common to see a fire feature in an outdoor living space. We can help you determine whether you would most enjoy a fire pit or fireplace.
Fireplaces are more expensive than fire pits. They usually serve one specific area and often are in a covered space. A fireplace will serve a maximum of about six people sitting directly in front of it.
Fire pits (woodburning or gas) can accommodate more people than a fireplace. The ability to sit on all sides of most fire pits creates a space that can accommodate 10 to 12 people. Gas fire pits are easier to use for shorter periods of time with no startup time needed.
