If you're thinking about investing in a fire pit for your property here in Texas, there are three fuel options to choose from: gas, wood, and propane. While each type of fire pit has its own unique features that make it stand out, the right option for you will depend on what you value most. Gas-burning fire pits are easy to turn on and off, don't produce a smell, and there is no cleanup involved when using them. Wood-burning fire pits provide a campfire feel, produce smoke with an aroma of natural wood, and you can start the fire manually. Propane-burning fire pits are similar to gas but need to be refilled on occasion. Read this blog to learn more about these different types of fire pits so you can choose the option that's best for you.

Gas-Burning Fire Pits Are Easy to Turn On & Off

One of the biggest benefits of gas-burning fire pits is how easy they are to use. When compared to other types of fire pits, starting a fire with a gas-burning fire pit is much simpler because there is no physical work required like gathering materials to start a fire or putting it out when done. All you have to do is press a button, and the flames will ignite instantly! What's more, gas fire pits also offer the convenience of being able to turn them off with just a push of another button. So, if you're looking for convenience, gas-burning fire pits are the way to go!

Gas-burning fire pits don't produce a smell, making them a great option for people who want to enjoy a fire without smelling like smoke!

Wood-Burning Fire Pits Provide a Campfire Feel & Produce Natural Smoke

When it comes to fire pits, many people love the look and feel of a wood-burning fire pit. That's because wood-burning fire pits give off a cozy campfire feel, especially at night when the flames burn brighter. They also create natural smoke, which some people enjoy smelling while spending time outside. If you're looking to build a fire from scratch, then a wood-burning fire pit is the way to go, as you can start the fire by hand. However, you need to keep in mind that you will need to put out the fire from a wood-burning fire manually!

The smoke from wood-burning fire pits has been known to deter mosquitoes.

Propane-burning fire pits are easy to turn on and off but need to be refilled on occasion.

Propane-burning fire pits are similar to gas-burning fire pits, but require a propane tank to function. They don't produce a smell and are easy to turn on and off. However, unlike gas, these fire pits need to be refilled every now and then. The amount of times you'll need to refill the tank depends on how often you use the fire pit. Some people may only need to fill the tank twice a year, while others may need to replenish it monthly or even weekly.
