6:09 AM Warm Up the Charlotte Olympia Thanksgiving Night! Patio Heaters and Fire Pits |
| Warm Up the Night! Patio Heaters and Fire Pits In some areas right now, the
weather is ideal for sitting outside in the evening -- the bugs have gone and
the sky is clear -- but the nights are chilly. Don't let the cool evenings send
you inside -- extend your outdoor living season by heating your deck or patio.
Different heaters are available for different needs and circumstances. A heater
will be powered by propane, natural gas, alcohol-gel, electricity, wood, or wood
substitutes such as charcoal or artificial logs. Depending on the size and the
heat source, they may warm only a small space or heat a party-size yard. For all
heating units to perform optimally, they will need the right location Charlotte Olympia
Thanksgiving. The ideal site is a combination of walls or fences (to radiate
the heat back into your space) and overhead structures that will prevent the
wind from blowing directly through your selected area. Here are some tips for
effective and safe use:Wood-burning fireplaces and fire pits are generally the
least expensive to buy and to operate. Check for zoning ordinances to be sure
that you can burn wood on your property. Some municipalities allow wood burning
in a small chimenea unit, but will not approve a built-in or dug fire pit.
Wood-burning units range from small collapsible units on wheels for easy
portability to huge built-in concrete fireplaces. If you are permitted to burn
wood, you are sure to find a unit to suit your needs!If you have a pottery
fireplace, or chimenea, use it cautiously as these units are lightweight and
reasonably fragile. To keep the fire from getting hot enough to break the
chimenea, it's best to use kindling-size wood.Many wood-burning units have
optional cooking grills so your fire can do double duty warming your toes and
your tummy. Try this yummy "pizza" recipe, cooked up in campfire irons.Any open
fire is a potential hazard. Keep any overhead sparks from tree branches or patio
overheads, and be sure to teach children proper fire safety huanghaiyan701 More

gas heaters are easy to use but are usually built in and, although bottled gas
may be purchased, are best limited to those areas that have natural gas
service.Propane heaters can be economical to operate. Depending on the heat
output level you set, a standard propane tank can provide 10-12 hours of heat.
Propane-powered "mushroom" or "umbrella" heaters (so called because of their
shape) are the best choice for heating large areas. They radiate warming rays
from the top cylinder and provide a comfort zone of 12 - 20 feet in diameter.
The propane tank is hidden in the bottom of the unit. It's a good idea to put
these units away when not in use as they can be sensitive to the elements.
Smaller tabletop units are also available. Although electric heat is usually the
most expensive, there are a few electric heaters designed specifically for
outdoor use. Be sure that any heater that is left outside is rated as such. With
the wide selection of outdoor heating devices available, you're sure to find one
that right's for you Charlotte Olympia Black
Friday. So heat up the night - and go right on enjoying your outdoor space.
