Pool Fire Features
There are a variety of pool fire features that homeowners can choose from. Fire features are a great addition to an existing pool or custom pool design.
Fire pits are common features you can add to your swimming area. They can enhance the beauty and elegance of your backyard space. Fire pits keep you warm in the winter so you can spend time outdoors year-round.
This feature comes in different shapes, sizes, and materials.
Fire bowls are growing in popularity because they can be incorporated into the pool’s structure. Pool fire bowls create unique lighting around the water and come in various designs to fit an aesthetic.
You can opt for a fire bowl that includes small waterfalls from the bowl, mixing fire and water. This effect will create a sense of calmness in your backyard and impress guests.
What Is the Difference Between a Fire Pit and a Fire Bowl?
The main difference between a fire pit and a fire bowl is the size. Fire pits are typically larger than fire bowls. Fire bowls also combine water with fire which most fire pits do not.
The materials of fire pits and fire bowls vary drastically and both can be customized to fit your outdoor space.
Although fire pits can be incorporated into the structure of the pool, this is seen more with fire bowls.
If you want a fire to casually hang around, a fire pit may be the better option for you. If you want to add fire features to boost the atmosphere, choose fire bowls.
Can You Have a Fire Pit in a Pool?
You can have a fire pit within a residential pool, but homeowners tend to place fire pits near the pool instead. This is because there are a lot of factors to consider when installing a fire pit in a pool.
A fire pit has to be made of material that can withstand high temperatures and isn’t prone to water damage. Stone and brick are popular choices.
The area you place your fire pit in needs a lot of ventilation so smoke doesn’t get trapped. It shouldn’t be in a spot where it can damage any pool components.
If not installed correctly, a fire pit could be a drowning hazard. It’s important to get the opinion of a professional on whether or not a fire pit in your pool is a good idea.
