BENEFITS OF OUTDOOR FIREPLACES AND FIREPITS
Outdoor fire features provide a host of benefits that enhance both the functionality and ambiance of your backyard. One of the most obvious advantages is the warmth they offer, making it possible to enjoy your outdoor space during cooler months or evenings. These fire features also create a natural gathering spot, perfect for socializing or relaxing with family and friends. From a design perspective, both fireplaces and firepits serve as stunning focal points, enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your landscape. Additionally, they add value to your home, making your property more attractive to potential buyers. Wood burning options are advantageous in their design, being easier to install without having to worry about gas lines and such. They also provide the deep warmth and toasty smells of traditional fire. One of the greatest benefits of gas fire pits is their ease of use—simply turn a knob to ignite the fire without the hassle of kindling or smoke. They also provide consistent heat output and are easier to control and maintain when in use. Whether you opt for a wood-burning or gas setup, these features provide a year-round outdoor experience while contributing to the overall enjoyment and versatility of your backyard space.

OUTDOOR FIREPLACE FAQS
Q. ARE FIREPITS ALLOWED IN FORT COLLINS?
A. In Fort Collins, outdoor firepits are generally allowed, but they must comply with specific local regulations and fire codes. Open burning, including wood-burning fire pits, often requires a permit or adherence to restrictions such as using only approved fire containers and maintaining a safe distance from structures or combustible materials. Gas fire pits may be subject to fewer restrictions but still need to follow safety guidelines. Be sure to check with local authorities or the Fort Collins Fire Department for any seasonal burn bans or specific rules before installing or using a fire pit in your backyard to ensure compliance and safety.
Q. HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO BUILD AN OUTDOOR FIREPLACE
A. The cost to build an outdoor fireplace can vary greatly depending on the size, materials, and complexity of the design. On average, a basic outdoor fireplace may start at around $3,000 to $5,000, while more elaborate custom designs with higher-end materials can range between $10,000 to $20,000 or more. Factors such as built-in seating, decorative stonework, and additional features like wood storage or gas lines can also increase the price. Labor costs, local permits, and the choice of wood-burning versus gas can further impact the overall expense. For an accurate estimate, please contact us!
Q. HOW CLOSE CAN AN OUTDOOR FIREPIT BE TO A HOUSE?
A. The recommended distance for an outdoor firepit from a house is generally at least 10 to 25 feet, depending on local fire codes and safety regulations. The exact distance may vary depending on where you live, as different municipalities have specific rules. It is also essential to keep the firepit away from any structures, trees, and other flammable materials to reduce fire risks. Always check with local building codes or a fire department for the precise regulations in your area to ensure compliance and safety.
Q. HOW MUCH VALUE DOES AN OUTDOOR FIREPLACE ADD?
A. An outdoor fireplace can add significant value to a home, both in terms of enjoyment and financial return. On average, outdoor fire features can increase home resale value by anywhere from 15% to 40%, depending on the quality of the installation, the overall landscape design, and the local real estate market. Outdoor fireplaces are particularly appealing to potential buyers as they extend the usable space of a home, provide a focal point for outdoor entertaining, and enhance curb appeal. Additionally, in regions with cooler climates, such as Fort Collins, a well-designed outdoor fireplace can make outdoor living spaces functional year-round, further boosting the perceived value of the property. While the specific return on investment will vary based on factors like material costs, custom design elements, and how seamlessly the fireplace integrates with the rest of the outdoor space, there is no question that outdoor fire features add significant value to any outdoor living space.
