We recently posted an article about the ease of adding an outdoor fireplace to your living space by using a Perfect Outdoor Fireplace Kit. Since that post, a customer sent us several before, during, and after pictures of their outdoor fireplace project that we wanted to share with you. The outdoor fireplace kit used in for the project shown below is the Perfect Outdoor Fireplace BBQ Edition Kit, which comes with a removable grill grate.
Step 1: Prep Your Patio or Deck. An outdoor fireplace looks good nearly anywhere, and our outdoor fireplace kits can adapt to any outdoor space. This customer extended his deck to create a wooden platform for his outdoor fireplace.
Step 2: Assemble the Base. Four stone pieces easily assembled to create the base of the Perfect Outdoor Fireplace. The stone was clearly labeled to make assembly clear and easy.
Step 3: Build the Walls. Our outdoor fireplaces are anchored by four corner pillars and supported by thick, clearly labeled walls. This customer ordered the Perfect Outdoor Fireplace BBQ Edition Kit, as you can see by the side slots for the grill grate.
Step 4: Add the Top Vent. The vent easily fit on the top of the fireplace. This piece helps protect the inside compartment, as well as direct the smoke away from your patio or deck.
Step 5: Personalize with Brick or Stone. One of the best features of the Perfect Outdoor Fireplace is that it looks great as it arrives or customized with brick or stone. With just a little extra work, this customer transformed his into a beautiful, unique stone fireplace.
Step 6: Enjoy Your Perfect Outdoor Fireplace! This customer was extremely pleased with his outdoor fireplace, and we’re sure that you will be, too! Perfect Outdoor Fireplace Kits are an easy way to upgrade your patio or deck. They come with all necessary materials and can even be built in an afternoon! Outdoor fireplace kits bring instant ambiance and warmth to your home.
