If you are looking for a practical and beautiful way to transform your backyard into a comfortable living space, outdoor patio wood heaters are a pleasant alternative to electric heating systems.  Wood ovens provide not only warmth, but the attraction of a roaring fire and the ability to cook over the flames, all without raising your gas or electric bill.

If you have decided to use a wood heater for your patio, you can choose from four basic categories of heating devices:

Wood-burning outdoor fireplaces – Extend the comfort of your living room into your porch or patio.  You can build an outdoor fireplace into the wall of your home, into a low wall surrounding your patio, or simply choose a stand-alone model.  Add warmth and atmosphere to your outdoor living space with this unique heating option.
Mexican-style Chimineas – Chimineas are a tradition dating back hundreds of years.  These outdoor wood heaters consist of two parts, a bowl and a chimney-like stem, which give them a unique and attractive appearance.  Great for cooking or for pure heating purposes.

Outdoor Firebowls – Firebowls are a handsome and portable way to heat your patio with wood.  Toast marshmallows over the flames or simply enjoy the extra warmth on a chilly evening.

Permanent Firepits – Build a stone- or brick-lined fire pit into your patio design for a safe and inexpensive way to keep yourself and your guests.  Relax next to the crackling flames and enjoy the scent of the aromatic wood.

Wood heaters are an affordable way to keep your patio warm on chilly nights, while simultaneously adding to the atmosphere of your outdoor living area.  Whether you are striving to create an outdoor great room or just to have a quick and easy alternative to cooking over your grill, wood burning patio heaters are a great choice.
