Fire Pit Installation in Central Florida: What You Need to Know

Gas vs. Wood-Burning

Gas: Flip a switch, no smoke, no ash. Most HOAs require gas. Needs gas line.

Wood-burning: Real campfire experience. Cheaper to install. Produces smoke – check local rules.

Popular Designs

Round stone with seating wall: Classic. 42-48 inch round pit with curved wall.

Rectangular fire table: Modern look. Gas with fire glass. Great near pools.

Sunken fire pit: Showstopper. Needs drainage engineering.

Permits and HOA

Seminole County requires permits for permanent fire pits. Many HOAs restrict to gas-only. We handle permit applications and HOA submittals.
