DIFFERENT BACKYARD FIRE PIT OPTIONS FOR YOUR VICTORIAN HOME
Wood Burning Fire Pits
The fire, warmth, smoke, and crackling of a wood-burning fire pit may be just what people seeking an “authentic” outdoor fire pit are searching for. Since they don’t require expensive fuels like gas or ethanol, are easily relocated, and are available in various styles (from cast iron to brick and even marble), wood fireplaces may be more economical than other fire pit varieties.
Propane Gas Fire Pits
A propane gas fire pit could be the answer if you’re seeking a way to keep your outdoor entertaining space toasty during the winter without the burden of wood and smoke. It is more than simply a patio heater that burns wood; it is the centrepiece of any event. Even the most cynical of guests may relax and appreciate the warmth a fire delivers because of the “wow factor,” which creates the ideal atmosphere. Most propane fire pits may use a 20-pound propane tank, which you can buy at your neighbourhood grocery store. Since they are adaptable, propane fire pits may be positioned almost anywhere in your backyard.
Gel Fuel Fire Pits
Any outdoor space will benefit from the atmosphere gel-fuel fire pits bring. Gel fire pits have the advantage of being clean and not emitting smoke or a burnt-wood odour. Regarding mobility, stunning design, excellent flames, and adaptability, gel fuel fire pits check all the appropriate boxes. The desktop fireplace and gel-fueled logs are typically two options that have been created from standard designs.
Natural Gas Fire Pits
Natural gas fire pits are a popular choice for homeowners searching for an outdoor point of focus for their Victorian house without the burden of chopping wood or continuous maintenance because of the natural gas fire pit’s high fuel economy and low maintenance requirements. They provide a lovely fireplace that operates on an unlimited fuel supply from a natural gas line built into the design, which is an improvement over propane ones. However, because they cannot be relocated, natural gas fire pits are the least mobile of the family of fire pits, even if they are also the cheapest to run and require the least upkeep.
Fire pits are not on the list of things losing popularity any time soon. Your garden or backyard may be transformed into a beautiful, enchanting environment with the variety of styles and types available from Kruzer Earthmoving. On a cold night, everyone appreciates the warmth of the fire. This season, invest in a new fire pit and look forward to those enjoyable evenings spent entertaining family, friends, or simply yourself while unwinding in front of the open flame. Contact Kruzer Earthmoving, outdoor fire pit builders, for all your fire pit needs!
QUESTIONS TO ASK ABOUT OUTDOOR FIRE PITS
Due to the thickness of the steel, even if you neglect to properly maintain your fantastic firepit, it will still endure longer than other fire pits. If left outside in the rain, the majority of thin fire pits only normally survive a year.
Fire pits are permitted as "similar outdoor activities" even though they are not expressly included in the Protection of the Environment Operations (Clean Air) Regulation.

As long as you abide by local rules and regulations, using a backyard fire pit is OK. Fire safety becomes even more crucial when the fire is in your backyard. The distance between the fire pit and a wooded wall shouldn't be closer than 4 metres, and you should make sure that the smoke emissions don't bother your neighbours.
Place your fire pit 10 to 25 feet away from combustible buildings or surfaces. This covers, among other things, your home, trees, shed car, the property of your neighbours, and wooden decks. Keep branches that dangle over your fire pit at a safe distance. It's best to consult fire pit builders or hire their services if you plan to install a fire pit in your yard.
Here are a few tips on how to enjoy your outdoor fire pits safely:
- Examine the wind currents.
- Make the fire outdoors.
- Don't Burn Construction Material.
- Prepare to Put Out the Flames.
- Chairs should be kept away from the fire.
- A fire must always be dealt with.
- Drink Cautiously and Responsibly.
- Listen to No-Burn Alerts.
There are several reasons why a fire pit should never be forgotten, even overnight. Unattended recreational fires are prohibited in all jurisdictions. Even a little wind blow has the power to rapidly disperse hot ashes or embers across a considerable area, which can cause hard-to-control forest fires.
