No matter the time of year, being able to snuggle up with the ones you love around
a relaxing fireplace is always welcome. Adding that same luxurious ambiance to an
outdoor area is another way to improve your property so you can enjoy the fresh 
air while staying warm and cozy. It makes summer last a bit longer and winter easier
to manage. There are a few things to keep in mind when selecting your [outdoor fireplaces.](https://hearthsidepatio.com/product-type/outdoor-living/)

### Consider the Materials

The construction of outdoor fireplaces can be made from stone, brick, or metal. 
Stone and brick are the most common materials for an outdoor fireplace. They both
have a long lifespan and are low-maintenance when it comes to cleaning. However,
they do require some upkeep if you want to keep them looking their best.

Metal is another option, but it is less common than stone or brick because it tends
not to last as long as either of those options would under similar conditions. There
are times when metal works very well outdoors, like in an outdoor fire pit where
the surface area that needs protection is much smaller than something like an entire
patio area with multiple seating arrangements. The most popular are stone and brick
because of the classic appearance and almost living room-styled area you get in 
your outdoor space.

### Know Your City Ordinances

It’s important to note that some cities may require a permit to install an outdoor
fireplace. Additionally, you may need to pay fees and/or file paperwork with the
city or county to get your fire pit up and running. Depending on where you live,
there may also be additional requirements such as inspections or certifications 
before they can make their way onto your property.

Most of the time, a quick check at your local town website will be enough to ensure
you are good to install and enjoy a beautiful outdoor fireplace.

### Why Should You Install Outdoor Fireplaces?

Outdoor fireplaces are great for entertaining. They allow you to have your friends
and family over without worrying about the weather. If you live in a cold climate,
then an outdoor fireplace can be a fun way for everyone to enjoy themselves on those
chilly nights.

Outdoor fireplaces are perfect for keeping warm on cool evenings. Even if it isn’t
too cold outside, having an open flame nearby will still make the air more comfortable.
You can also cook over an open flame or roast marshmallows while relaxing under 
the stars.

You can also help create an atmosphere where people want to spend time together 
instead of just sitting around watching TV. An outdoor fireplace cultivates a space
where you want to talk and share stories while staying cozy and watching the flames
dance.
