Guidelines for Patio Fire Places
- The fire place must be build to UL (Underwriters Laboratories) standards.- For fires that are less than 3 feet wide and 2 feet tall: - The fire must be 25 feet from a structure or combustible material. - The fire must be constantly attended. - There must be extinguishing equipment (e.g., extinguisher, dirt, water, etc.) readily available.- For fires larger than that or used in unique ways such as pit roasting a pig or building a sweat lodge, call the Fire Prevent Bureau (799-4150) for options.
Call the Fire Prevention Bureau (799-4150) with any questions or concerns.
These are good suggestions for the construction of and use of patio fire places. Thanks for your help. Patty
