Phoenix homes featuring outdoor fireplaces naturally become gathering places for friends, family, and neighbors. AZ Outside Living can design and build the perfect warm and inviting outdoor space. All you have to do is explain your ideas and relax while we take care of everything.
Fireplace Design
The right design is vital when creating an outdoor gathering space. Your outdoor fireplace should seamlessly fit into an existing design. Better yet, the fireplace can become the focal point if you’re creating a space from scratch.
Decide on the primary outdoor fire features and functions you’d like to have, such as:
- Warmth on cool nights
- Ambiance for gatherings
- A place to cook
Some of our models provide all of these functions and more.
Our team at AZ Outside Living can help with design. You explain your goals and hopes for the space, and we’ll find the best options.
Mild Heat Settings
In Arizona, outdoor fireplaces don’t always need to generate heat. When you’re having friends over on a summer night, you want ambiance from the fireplace.
During cool winter nights, though, you may want a bit of extra warmth to chase away the chill.
We offer outdoor Phoenix fireplace models where mild heat output lets you enjoy the flame year-round. When you choose a gas fireplace, you can control this output by adjusting a knob. With some wood fireplaces, you can adjust the fireplace vent settings to deliver mild heat output.
Types of Phoenix Fireplaces
You have many design choices when selecting outdoor custom fireplaces. Create a customized fireside experience featuring a glass barrier, an open hearth experience, built-in Bluetooth speakers, or other decorative accessories.
A key starting point, though, is selecting the kind of fuel you want the unit to use:
- Wood: Some people prefer a wood-burning outdoor fireplace because of its natural look, warm feel, and glass-free view. However, it creates more smoke than other options and requires more maintenance.
- Propane: An open gas fireplace doesn’t leave ash. It’s easier to control heat output with propane than with other fuels. However, gas fireplaces are quiet, so you don’t get the satisfying crackle that a wood-burning fireplace offers. You can use faux gas logs for appearances, though.
- Ethanol: Ethanol is a renewable fuel source, making it an ideal option for green-conscious homeowners. Storing the ethanol fuel, though, can be challenging.

FAQs
Learn more about our outdoor fireplace designs and decorative items below.
Does an Outdoor Fireplace Need a Chimney?
Typically, an open-hearth outdoor fireplace that burns wood needs a chimney. Wood burning creates more smoke than gas fireplaces, which may not require chimneys.
How Tall Should an Outdoor Fireplace Be?
An outdoor fireplace can be as tall as you like, ranging from four to 15 feet. The fireplace’s height should fit well into the outdoor space available. Our designers can help you find the perfect height to maximize your chimney’s aesthetic and functional benefits.
How Far Does an Outdoor Fireplace Need To Be From the Home?
An outdoor fireplace needs to be at least 10 feet from the home. Our team emphasizes safety in the location and design of all Phoenix fireplaces we install.
