Popular Fire Features for Outdoor Living

🔥 Fire Bowls

Fire bowls bring drama and elegance to any backyard. Often placed along pool edges or patios, they serve as both heat sources and decorative accents. Paired with water features, they create a striking fire-and-water effect that feels straight out of a luxury resort.

🔥 Fire Pits

Fire pits are the ultimate gathering spot. Their circular or square designs invite people to sit together, whether it’s for roasting marshmallows, sharing stories, or simply relaxing. With finishes ranging from rustic stone to sleek concrete, they fit seamlessly into any backyard style.

🔥 Stone Fireplaces

Stone fireplaces add comfort and sophistication to outdoor living spaces. Acting as a grand focal point, they provide warmth while creating a cozy spot for entertaining or unwinding. Perfect for homeowners who want their backyard to feel like an extension of the home.

🔥 Linear Fire Features

Linear fire features offer a sleek, modern look with long, ribbon-like flames. Ideal for pool edges, dining areas, or seating walls, they provide warmth while doubling as a bold design statement. Their clean lines make them a favorite in contemporary outdoor spaces.

When paired with your pool, fire features create an unforgettable backyard experience. Imagine swimming under the glow of fire bowls or enjoying a night by the fire pit after a refreshing dip.
