Here at The Fireplace Technician, our experts can secure the necessary permits on your behalf and ensure a smooth and well-planned project.

 

Analyse your needs

 

Are you using the fireplace solely for heating? Do you want to cook with it? These are important considerations that can impact the design of your outdoor fireplace.

Survey your installation space

 

Avoid installing the chimney or fireplace near neighbouring properties to prevent smoke nuisance. The wood burner installation should also be far enough away from flammable materials like wood storage areas, buildings, vegetation, and wooden decks.

At The Fireplace Technician, we customise outdoor fireplaces according to your property’s features. We provide ample space for the smoke, heat, and flames to disperse safely, ensuring no overhanging objects above the unit.
