The One Thing That Makes or Breaks It

"Wind is the enemy. A beautiful fire pit that's unusable because smoke blows directly at guests is worthless. Before you build, sit in that spot on 10 different evenings and track wind patterns. Plant tall grasses or hedges on the windward sideβ€”they'll make the difference between 'nice idea' and 'favorite spot in the yard.'"

Professional designers call this 'microclimate design.' Your fire pit location matters more than the fire pit itself.
