Frequently Asked Questions
-
The Fire Place offers a wide variety of outdoor fireplaces to suit any backyard style, including wood-burning and gas-powered models in both freestanding and built-in configurations. We carry products from top brands including Lopi, Fireplace Xtrordinair, and DaVinci, giving you access to some of the highest-quality outdoor hearth products on the market. Whether you want the authentic crackle of a wood fire or the instant convenience of gas, our team will help you choose and professionally install the perfect outdoor fireplace for your space.
-
Yes — when properly selected, positioned, and installed, fire pits are a safe and enjoyable addition to any residential outdoor space. The Fire Place ensures every fire pit installation meets local fire codes and manufacturer clearance requirements, including appropriate setbacks from structures, fencing, and overhead features. Gas fire pits eliminate many of the risks associated with open wood fires, such as unpredictable sparks and embers, and include shut-off valves for added control. Our certified team will advise you on the safest placement and configuration for your specific yard layout.
-
The main differences come down to convenience, ambiance, and fuel access. Wood-burning units offer the authentic crackling fire experience many homeowners love, and work completely off-grid — no gas line needed. However, they require firewood storage and produce ash and smoke. Gas units run on natural gas or propane and ignite instantly with a switch or remote, produce no ash, and can be turned off precisely when needed. Both options are beautiful and functional; the best choice depends on your lifestyle, property setup, and personal preference. Our team at The Fire Place can help you weigh the options in person.
-
Yes! The Fire Place has two showroom locations — our original showroom in Chico, CA and our brand-new showroom in Redding, CA.

Installation timelines vary depending on the type of appliance and the complexity of the project. A freestanding gas fire pit with an existing gas connection can often be installed in a single day, while a built-in outdoor fireplace or full outdoor kitchen may require multiple days of work including masonry, gas line installation, and finish work. During your initial consultation, our team will assess your site, discuss your vision, and provide a clear project timeline and written estimate before any work begins. We take pride in thorough, clean installations that are built to last.

Absolutely — and it's one of our most popular outdoor living combinations.
