The first questions to answer for an outdoor firepit design:
Outdoor Fire Pits, Gas & Wood Fire Pits?
Standard fire pit designs are flat and flush with the ground. Others can have a raised profile. Ultimately the decision is yours and should be based on your own design preferences and the space you have to work with. Some common fire pit designs incorporate decorative paving stones or fire-resistant bricks to line the exterior of the fire pit. This can create a refined, yet rustic design. Additionally, some fire pit designs use smooth river rocks or colored glass within the fire pit itself, another eye-catching touch which can give a fire pit a unique quality.
Other considerations for your fire pit include the shape—commonly, fire pits are either square or round—the placement, and whether it is a gas or fire pit.
Lawns are not expensive to plant. Enough grass seed to cover your property is far less expensive than exotic plants or other features. however, lawns need careful maintenance, and plenty of water, especially at the beginning to get them established. So you may feel a lawn is a simple and affordable way to go, but it may take more money in the long run in terms of water, time and labor.
A gas fire pit requires municipal permitting and special expertise in order to ensure you safely tap into your home’s gas supply, a service that Ti-tan can manage and provide. Anchorage municipal code also calls for fire pits to be at least 15 feet away from the house.
