No custom home is complete without an outdoor living area where you can sit and enjoy fresh air and nature on your own property. In Maryland, your custom home could even come complete with a waterfront view. In the fall and spring, it can be pretty chilly. That is by no means a reason to stop hanging out outside during these seasons. Fit your home to the fullest with the right heating for your outdoor living areas.
Enjoy the Fall and Spring with Outdoor Heating
Fall and spring in Maryland are both known for their mild temperatures. Even so, the weather can become cold enough to become uncomfortable when you want to sit outdoors for an extended time. Make the most of these seasons with the help of one or more of these five outdoor heating ideas. If you are designing a custom home in Maryland, Shore-Line Construction can bring your dream to life.
Heating for Outdoor Living Areas
Fire Pit
A fire pit is a classic outdoor heating option, particularly for open spaces like patios and decks. The open flames are perfect for toasting marshmallows and sitting around on a cold evening or a warm summer night.
Fireplace
An outdoor fireplace can grace your patio, deck, screened porch, or sunroom. Some are double-sided, functioning for both the inside and outside of your home. The benefit is that you won’t deal with any smoke blowing in your face like with a fire pit.
Wood-Burning Stove
Similarly, wood-burning stoves are rustic and very efficient heating options for outdoor living spaces. A small wood-burning stove can heat a large space and you can cook on top of some models. This option might work best for screened porches and sunrooms.
Chiminea
A chiminea is a Mexican invention, a clay-formed fire pit with a chimney. Some are made of metal. Some chimineas expose the flames on all sides, while others only expose them on one side like a fireplace does.
Patio Heater
Patio heaters come in all kinds of configurations and have different power sources. They can stand on the floor, on a table, or be mounted to the ceiling.
