Adding a fire pit or fireplace to your pergola area can provide warmth and create a cozy gathering spot. First, consult local building codes and regulations regarding fire features in outdoor spaces. Choose a fire pit or fireplace that suits your space and complements the pergola’s design. Ensure the fire feature is safely positioned, away from flammable materials and at a safe distance from the pergola’s structure. Consider using fire-resistant materials for the area around the fire feature. Also, have a fire extinguisher or a source of water nearby for safety purposes, and never leave the fire unattended.
