Wood-burning fire pits are popular among homeowners for relaxing and entertaining guests. The features also make visual statements and may add to your home's value. You must design a fire pit correctly to get the most out of it.

First, think about how you intend to use the fire pit and the people who will be near it. For instance, are children walking around the fire pit, or will it be for adults only? This consideration will guide your installation and safety measures and the materials used.

Choose your fire pit materials carefully. Because your fire pit is likely out in the open, choose durable materials like concrete blocks for the fire pit walls, base, and benches, as they can stand the test of time when exposed to the elements. For aesthetics, let the fire pit design and materials match the general look of your yard.

Consider the size of your space. If your space is compact, a portable fire pit may be worth considering instead of a permanent one. When the whole family is in attendance, or you have guests, you can move a portable fire pit to a more spacious or convenient location in your yard. You can also reposition a portable fire pit for diverse experiences. One weekend, you may host your neighbors on the driveway; the following week, you may want a more private family gathering in your backyard.

The location of your fire pit matters. Choose a spot far from anything flammable, including fences, plants, and trees. Make sure flying embers cannot reach your gutters or gas pipes. Locate the pit so smoke will not blow into your house or neighboring houses.

Leave ample space around the fire pit so you can walk around the fire safely and easily. Remember to also account for additional space around the fire pit to place chairs or benches. For safety, always have some water in a bucket within easy reach when using the fire pit in case you need to subdue roaring embers. In addition, a fire extinguisher for use after using the fire pit.

There are many stylish ways to store your firewood. As part of the larger landscaping design, you can construct an open wood storage facility close to the fire pit. Factor in accessibility from the driveway when the wood arrives and when you need to add wood to the fire.

Before installing a fire pit, familiarize yourself with applicable building codes and regulations. Most of these guidelines are designed to avert fire hazards. If, for example, you live within city limits, you need to check whether fire pits and wood fires are permitted in local building ordinances. Also, a homeowners' association (HOA), local government, or house deed may have restrictions on the location, material, size, and fuel type of home fire pits. Some HOAs may prohibit fire pits.

You may want to consider getting the help of a landscaper. These professionals can ensure your fire pit complies with all laws and regulations in your area.

Based in Iowa, Jake Kruse is a dog breeder and the owner and president of K&E Landscapes. When he is not busy with work, Jake Kruse likes spending time outdoors boating and . One species that can be fished in Iowa is the pumpkinseed sunfish.

Considered one of the most beautiful of the sunfish varieties, the pumpkinseed is a smaller fish only growing up to eight inches. They are freshwater fish that can be found in rivers, lakes, and ponds but are rarely found in man-made lakes. Because they can often school with other sunfish, such as green sunfish or bluegill, they tend to hybridize. This makes them more difficult to identify. In addition to a ten to eleven spine dorsal fin, pumpkinseed are yellow, olive, and green with distinctive wavy bands of alternating color across their body.

Spring and early summer are considered most ideal for fishing this species. When catching them, they prefer small sections of worm near underwater growths of vegetation. They also appreciate grubs, crickets, and artificial lures. This variety of fish is also known for being good to eat.
