Using fire features to decorate your house pool for 2022

People are spending more time at home than ever before as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, which has forced over 71 percent of American workers to work remotely. As a result, it's no surprise that homeowners are seeking for creative methods to extend their living rooms to the outside. A floating fire pit in a pool is one of the most popular features.

Fire and water, in general, are thought to be incompatible. Swimming pool builders, on the other hand, will tell you that this statement isn't entirely true when it comes to pool fire features such as pool fire bowls. Fire and water may cohabit and mingle. When they do, you usually get the best of both worlds!

How Do Swimming Pools Fire Pits Work?

While it may appear that purchasing a floating fire pit for your pool is as simple as going to the online selling portal and ordering one, floating bowls aren't always the ideal option, as water splashing, waves, rain, and other factors can make them ineffective. Rather of having a floating fire pit in your pool, try having one incorporated into the structure or surrounding area. In the long run, these will last longer and create fewer consumption and maintenance difficulties. For elements such as pool fire bowls, it is always recommended to have experts working on the installation.

Water or fire features - what to choose for 2022?

To add an extra degree of aesthetic appeal, most pool fire features contain lava stones, smooth river pebbles, or bright iridescent fire glass covering a burner. Typically, gas is used to fuel the flames. In rare cases, propane can be used instead. A fuel line runs to a burner inside the feature, which is normally hidden in the earth beneath the deck. Alternatively, you can light the pot or pit manually.

Using an electronic igniter to light the pit is a better option. This option, however, will necessitate the installation of a power line, which will incur an additional cost. The trade-off is that you'll be able to start the fires from afar. Fire pits and pots come in a variety of shapes and sizes, and they all enhance the beauty of your outdoor space. Which do you think will be the most appealing for your new aquatic getaway?

 

Fire bowls in your pool for added elegance

A fire bowl is one of the most popular pool fire elements when it comes to floating fire pits. These miniature readymade jars, available in round or square designs, are ideal for illuminating your backyard pool at night. The name "fire-woks" comes from the shape of some fire bowls, which resemble a Chinese cooking wok. Fire pots usually have a diameter of two to three feet and a height of 12 to 24 inches. They have an internal burner that links to a natural gas (or propane) supply pipe. While flames explode into the air, bowls with proper plumbing pour a smooth cascade of water into the pool surface below, adding to the drama.

Another aspect that makes fire bowls popular among pool customers is the range of available types. The most typical finishes are copper and colored concrete, but stainless steel is also available. You can choose from a variety of finishes to fit your pool kinds, ranging from rustic to modern. Even when the flames are turned off, the bowls serve as aesthetic elements around the pool.

Pool reinvention

One or more bowls are usually placed on a structural perch along and above the pool's border. These frequently stand on a raised bond beam forming part of the pool wall, rather than a floating fire pit in your pool. These bond beam structures typically serve as a platform for displaying bowls and elevating their flames for better sight from a distance. Small fire bowls can also be placed in nooks on some designs of enormous rock waterfalls.
