Outdoor Fireplaces

Fireplaces for patios and decks 

Smaller, freestanding fireplaces can be the perfect solution for compact outdoor areas such as patios and decks. Choosing the right fireplace for this type of setting in New Zealand is about ensuring the size and heat output is suitable and will be an efficient use of space. It’s also important to factor in ease of movement around a fireplace and ensures there is sufficient room.

Outdoor fireplaces for larger spaces

A large outdoor fire pit or built-in fireplace can transform an external setting, generally creating a sense of ambience in the outdoors and simultaneously drawing people to congregate around the flames. Like smaller fires, large outdoor fires can be an incredibly efficient source of heat and create a natural connection to the surrounding landscape. There are many options for these types of fires in New Zealand, from gas to wood, and charcoal to biofuel. 

Choosing the best outdoor fireplace

Outdoor heating solutions in New Zealand have increased dramatically over the last few years with the latest technology changing the face of outdoor heating entirely. Contemporary heaters for external settings include outdoor infrared heaters, which are designed to heat the people and objects in space rather the air - offering an incredibly efficient and comfortable heating solution for outdoor settings. These types of heaters are particularly useful to install around entertainment or eating areas where people are likely to congregate in the same area. 

There is also a multitude of freestanding and wall or ceiling mounted heating options in New Zealand, as well as a host of portable outdoor heaters, to suit any outdoor room or setting.
