Uncovering the Purpose of Your Fireplace
Choosing an outdoor fireplace for your Abbotsford farm, your White Rock townhouse – or any community in-between, means taking into consideration the purpose of your fireplace. Some of which may include:
- Creating an outdoor living room
- Enhancing your backyard for entertainment
- Providing warmth or cooking options
- …or even seeking to upgrade your outdoor space as an added selling feature to improve the value of your home
There are a wide-range of reasons people seek to purchase an outdoor fireplace for their property, and it is essential to understand the why’s so we can help you facilitate the how’s.

Choosing Between a Gas or Wood-Burning Fireplace
Other considerations when choosing your fireplace in the Fraser Valley include whether you want a gas fireplace or a wood-burning fireplace. Both deliver a different look and feel for your outdoor space, keeping in mind the fire restrictions in some areas during the summer.
If you are more inclined to be using your fireplace over the colder seasons, then perhaps the crackling of an outdoor wood fire is more your preference and the ideal fit. All things worth taking into consideration.
Deciding on a Fireplace that Suits Your Lifestyle and Home Design
Whether you have a sprawling Chilliwack piece of property or a compact South Surrey space – choosing a fireplace that suits your lifestyle and home design are also factors to consider.
