Water fire pits have a unique water feature that offers unique focal points in the backyard. This fire pit is usually installed for its feel and look or aesthetic appeal rather than functionality.

Water trickles around the dancing flames of the fire pit set in the middle of the structure. It can truly be a captivating sight to see every night without tiring of it.

Water fire pits easily catch the attention of passers-by and neighbors, especially if you set one up in your open backyard. 

If you are looking for a fire pit that makes a grand statement in that lovely backyard of yours, a water fire pit will do.

An excellent example of a water fire pit is the Slick Rock KCC29CPSCC Cascade Series 29-Inch round fire pit. 

It is one of the best water fire pits for adding designer sophistication to any outdoor space. It also provides aesthetically pleasing focal points for your backyard.

2.Propane Fire Pits

Propane fire pits guarantee ultimate convenience by allowing you to enjoy quality flame but without building one with wood or coping with refilling gel. This type of fire pit is usually larger than wood-burning pits and is, in most cases, the focal point of any space.

The flame a propane fire pit emits is impressive as it rises from beneath rock pebbles, faux wood, or glass pebbles. The pit itself is designed to accommodate a 20-pound propane tank which you can purchase at the local grocery store. 

Usually, a propane tank cover would be ideal to cover the tank and make it more appealing. Some models have their tanks within them, however, a majority will require a propane tank cover.

Propane fire pits mostly have ignition switches housed beneath the fire pit alongside the propane tank. This makes lighting them a walk in the park. You can extinguish a propane fire pit by cutting off the propane supply.

An example of a propane fire pit is The Outdoor Greatroom Company Kenwood Linear Dining Height Gas Fire Pit Table. This particular product is set up for liquid propane but can be converted to natural gas with the conversion kit included when purchased. This fire pit has a contemporary style that makes it ideal for entertaining.

3. Natural Gas Fire Pits

If you have more than enough space for natural gas installation in your backyard, consider buying a natural gas fire pit. This type of fire pit is somewhat similar to Propane Fire Pit.

However, the major difference between a Propane Fire Pit and a Natural Gas Fire Pit is that the latter has a permanent connection to a specific natural gas line. 

This efficiently eliminates the risk of suddenly running out of gas. It is also the only costly aspect of using this type of fire pit.

Natural gas fire pits are often the least portable types as they cannot be moved once installed. However, the good news is that they are the most affordable to operate. Maintaining a natural gas fire pit is also a breeze.

Natural gas fire pits are available in different designs, though Sunken Design and Tabletop, Square, or Round Design are the most popular.

Most wood-burning fire pits are constructed with steel. But the size of the fire bowl is the distinguishing factor between them. The larger the fire bowl, the bigger the fire you can make, and vice versa.

Wood-burning fire pits come fitted with legs that provide an additional layer of safety. They do this by keeping the fire pit off the ground and far away from the patio floor. The legs also raise the heat much close to guests or family members gathered around it.

You will find a wide variety of wood-burning fire pits on the market. They come in different sizes and styles. One perfect example is the Fire Pit Art Saturn.

Adding fire pit dining tables to patios adds a sense of convenience and luxury to your home. 

As soon as temperatures start dropping, you can be pretty confident that you, your family, and friends can still enjoy the beauty of the outdoors.

A fire pit dining table comes with a housing that contains a tank of portable gas and a gas line. Several burners are attached to the gas tank underneath, which acts as the fuel supplier.

The fire pit dining table is also equipped with an ignition switch. As soon as you turn the switch on, the burners ignite and give that lovely appearance of real wood or coal fire.

Some fire pit dining table models come with mesh covers over the burners in order to prevent clogging. But some units are equipped with glass that surrounds the fire pit, making them more aesthetically pleasing.

There is a crucial difference between a fire pit dining table and a regular fire pit. Most fire pits come with a simple base surrounded by bricks or pavers. In contrast, fire pit dining tables, which also come with a base, are designed to fit into tables.

Fire pit dining tables are generally powered by gasses and are available as burners. This is not to imply that there are no fire pit dining tables that use other sources of fuel.

But the benefits of gas-powered fire pit dining tables are numerous. For instance, they are easier to clean than other types fueled by a different source. 

Gas-powered fire pit dining tables do not leave piles of ashes that you have to clean up.

But the same cannot be said for wood-burning or charcoal-burning fire pit dining tables. Gas-powered fire pit dining tables also offer fewer hassles. All you need to do is set the gas, relax and enjoy the warmth of the flame with your family. 

However, you have to put in more wood or charcoal in fire pit dining tables that use them as sources of fuel. 

Lastly, gas-powered fire pit dining tables are more visually appealing and safer than their wood-burning or charcoal-burning counterparts. 

No unsightly residues are left at the end of a beautiful and entertaining evening. Seeing the flames as they leap and dance in the glass is a lovely and treasurable sight.

What To Look For When Buying a Fire Pit

Not all fire pits are created equal, as there is no shortage of sizes and designs. This is why it is crucial to know what to look for when you are in the market for a durable fire pit.

Of course, your final choice depends considerably on your house’s design and stylistic preferences. Nevertheless, these key points will make your search for the best fire pit easier for you.

Here are some of the factors you should consider or look out for when looking to buy a fire pit:

Materials

The materials used in constructing fire pits range from copper and stainless steel to tile and stone. Stone is usually heavy; it is the best option for square and larger fire pits that will never be moved around.

The same principle goes for fire pits made from stainless steel. Stainless steel fire pits are incredibly expensive. However, these fire pits are highly resistant to rust and ruin. They are also one of the most accessible fire pits to clean. 

Therefore, if you are looking for a top-of-the-range fire pit, stainless steel is an excellent option to consider. Tile fire pits are fire-proof, just like their counterparts made from stone. Tile fire pits are mainly used as decorative touches on much smaller fire pits.

But if your goal is to invest in something standard, a copper fire pit should be at the top of your list. Fire pits constructed from copper are coated with powder in order to efficiently combat the onslaught of the elements. 

These fire pits also have shiny appearances or looks, which help accentuate the beauty of the spot they are positioned.

Another notable material is concrete. One of the great things about using concrete or high-performance cast concrete material for your fire pit is that there are a huge amount of options to fit your needs. You can find them  as big or small as you want, and you can choose from a variety of shapes and designs. You can also add seating areas around the pit, which makes it perfect for social gatherings.

Another benefit of using concrete or high-performance cast concrete material is that it is durable and long-lasting.

In other words, if what you need is a fire pit that will wear incredibly well while extending the structure's life then a concrete fire pit is the best option. 

Burner (BTUS) for Enough Heat

The temperature of a specific fire pit depends significantly on the container of the fire as well as its fuel source. You can get a wide range of temperatures from using a durable fire pit. The temperature of fire pits is usually measured in British Thermal Units (BTUs).

Most fire pits – and even fireplaces – generate heat that ranges from 30,000 to 100,000 BTUs. The higher a fire pit's BTU, the more warmth you will feel from the fire pit.

Wood, propane, or natural gas are the 3 primary options for fire pits' fuel sources. Every fuel source has its unique benefits.

For instance, fire pits powered with propane can generate an average heat output that ranges from 30,000 to 50,000 BTUs. These are just enough BTUs to keep you warm on cold evenings. However, it is not uncommon to discover commercial fire pits that generate up to 70,000 BTUs.

On the other hand, wood-burning fire pits can generate up to 60,000 BTUs. In some cases, you will even discover that a few wood-burning fire pits generate as much as 100,000 BTUs. Although this type of fire pit is a favorite among many users, it is not the ideal option for everyone. 

This is because maintaining the flame from a wood-burning fire pit is somewhat challenging. The same problem is encountered when it comes to keeping the flame at the perfect or correct heat level. It is also somewhat dangerous and messier than natural gas or propane-powered fire pits.

Weather Resistance

The high-performance concrete fire pit again is the best for resisting any form of harsh weather condition and would last for much longer. Their versatile designs and customization options put them in the lead.

The type of material a fire pit is made from determines how resistant it will be against the elements. stainless steel fire pits would be a good second choice. They are an excellent choice for backyards and patios. They are also relatively inexpensive and strong compared to other materials used in constructing fire pits.

Although stainless steel fire pits may not be as attractive as cast iron pits, the former adds convenience and pleasing aesthetics to a patio or backyard without driving costs upwards.

Stainless steel fire pits are low maintenance options as they require minimal initial set-up as well as occasional cleaning. These fire pits are relatively lightweight, making them easy to move from one spot to another when necessary.

Warranty 

Different fire pit brands offer different warranties. This means that no all-inclusive warranty exists.

For instance, the fire pit brand – i.e. Fire Pit Art® – offers a 10-year warranty after the date of purchase on all fire pit components, excluding gas components. All returns must be sent through prepaid freight and in the original retail packaging.

Before this brand renders warranty services, you must tender proof of purchase, which is a normal process. We at Sheds Network will help you with the warranty process if needed.

On the other hand, The Outdoor GreatRoom Company™, another renowned fire pit brand, offers a warranty on most of its fire pit products powered by different fuel sources.

Therefore, consider the warranty of the brand of fire pit you are interested in before you purchase the product. 

Ask specific questions such as: what are the length of time and details for the warranties? Who handles the warranty on the vessel? Who is in charge of handling the burner warranty? 

This will give you the information you need to help you make a good buying decision as you shop for a fire pit

How Many BTUs Should A Fire Pit Have?

BTUs or British Thermal Units refer to a unit of energy needed to heat a pound of water by precisely one degree Fahrenheit at sea level. 

But concerning BTUs for fire pits – or any other outdoor decorative appliance – the greater the BTU, the more heat and flame the fire pit generates. BTU output generally ranges from 30,000 to 100,000 on fire pits. Therefore, the higher the British Thermal Unit, the more warmth a fire pit emits.

How many BTUs a fire pit should have depends on the height of a burner and the flame appearance. It also depends on the purpose for which it was purchased. Is it for just a few people around your backyard or larger crowds, or simply a fire table to eat some snacks and drinks? These are often affected by several factors besides the British Thermal Unit.

For instance, the amount of air that mixes with the gas before it ignites affects the overall flame height and color. More air equals bluer flame color, but the flame will be shorter, cleaner, and of a higher temperature.

To this end, more air is usually added to a fire pit via an air shutter at the orifice location. Closing the air shutter lessens the air, producing a taller, yellow flame. If sustained for too long, dirty, sooty flames emerge.

Although fire pits powered by gasses are cleaner than their wood-burning counterparts, the CO2 generated can still be dangerous.

In other words, the larger the orifice, the more BTU’s the burner generates, assuming every other thing is the same. Higher gas pressures also equal more BTUs.

Moreover, liquid propane generates more BTUs – i.e. 2500 BTU/ft3 than natural gas (1000 BTU/ft3).

Liquid propane and natural gas are generally sold by the British Thermal Unit. This implies that the more BTUs a burner consumes per hour, the more it will cost you to keep the burning appliance going.

Therefore, while most people generally prefer high BTU measures for their gas-powered fire pits, it is essential to consider many other factors before purchasing the most suitable fire pit. 

We recommend fire pits between 45-60,000 BTUS for home use, and 80-100,000 BTUs for bigger places, such as the crowded waiting area of a restaurant.

BTU to Look Out For

This can be pretty subjective when it comes to the BTUs to look out for when shopping for a fire pit. For instance, every individual has their own heating preferences. 

Some people feel 'warm' at specific temperatures, while others will require a higher temperature in order to feel warm.

Moreover, several factors also impact precisely how warm you – or your friends/family – can feel around a fire pit. These factors include – but are not limited to the following:

  • Your regional climate
  • Your proximity and that of your guests to the fire pit
  • How windy the location is outside
  • The type of fire pit that you desire

This is why the best way to accurately determine the BTU you need is to measure the flame's temperature using a specialized thermometer.

A standard propane-powered outdoor fire pit will feature between 40,000 and 150,000 BTUs. 

This is quite a wide range, but you can also look out for fire pits that guarantee the following BTUs:

  • 120,000 BTU fire pit (With this amount of BTU’s this would be a commercial fire pit. It is intended as a big fire pit to heat more than 10 people)
  • 100,000 BTU fire pit ( 8-10 people, and will start to be considered commercial fire pit)
  • 80,000 BTU fire pit ( this would be a mid-size fire pit - 6 people would be OK)
  • 40,000-50,000 BTU fire pit (Ideal for small gatherings in your backyard and most common)

The fuel source for your fire pit also determines the BTU you will obtain. For instance, you can increase or decrease the BTU of a wood-burning fire pit by adding or removing the amount of fuel, i.e. wood. 

Fire pits powered by bio-ethanol – in gel or liquid form – provide lower BTUs. They do not burn as intensely as propane-powered or natural gas fire pits.
