A fireplace is what turns a porch from a warm-weather room into a place you use in February. It anchors the seating, it gives the space a focal point, and in most of our projects it is the feature the whole design ends up organised around.

We build wood-burning and gas fireplaces into screened porches, covered porches and outdoor rooms across Alpharetta, Milton, Roswell, Woodstock and the rest of North Atlanta.

Why Install a Fireplace in Your Porch?

  • Extended use of outdoor space. Fireplaces provide warmth, allowing you to use the porch comfortably during cooler seasons or evenings.
  • Aesthetic appeal. A fireplace can serve as a focal point, enhancing the overall design and ambiance of the porch, and a great place to mount a TV.
  • Entertainment and socializing. Fireplaces create a cozy and inviting atmosphere, making the porch an ideal spot for gatherings, relaxation, and entertainment.
  • Increased property value. A well-designed porch with a fireplace can boost the home’s resale value by adding a desirable feature.

Benefits of a Wood-Burning Fireplace

  • Authentic experience. The crackling sound and aroma of burning wood create a traditional, rustic ambiance that many find appealing.
  • Higher heat output. Wood-burning fireplaces generally produce more heat compared to gas fireplaces, making them more effective in colder weather.

Benefits of a Gas Non-Vented Fireplace

  • Convenience and ease of use. Gas fireplaces can be turned on and off with the flip of a switch or remote control, providing instant heat without the need to gather and store wood.
  • Low maintenance. Gas fireplaces produce less soot and ash compared to wood-burning fireplaces, reducing the need for frequent cleaning and chimney maintenance.
  • Consistent heat. Gas fireplaces provide a steady and controllable heat output, ensuring a consistent and comfortable temperature.
  • Cleaner burning. Gas fireplaces produce fewer emissions than wood-burning fireplaces, making them a more environmentally friendly option.
  • Space-saving design. Non-vented gas fireplaces do not require a chimney or flue, allowing for more flexible installation options and saving space on the porch.
  • Safety. Gas fireplaces eliminate the risk of sparks and embers, reducing the potential for accidental fires.

Both types of fireplaces can enhance the functionality and enjoyment of your porch, so the choice depends on your preferences for convenience, maintenance, and the type of ambiance you want to create.
