My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

Firepit?

13 years ago
Could I have a firepit underneath that covering or no?? And what's the height of it?

    Yes you could but it is probably to close to the house.

    yeah, our patio is a bit wider so we could get it far enough away from the house, I just didn't know if the smoke/flames would be bad under the covering?

    No it wouldn't be bad I just wouldn't recommend it

    Hi kz22, the height of this pergola is approx 10 feet tall. Since the cover is plastic I wouldn't recommend putting a firepit underneath.

    Absolutely not. That is fiberglass sheeting which would warp with that kind of heat under it. It does, however, stand up well in the blazing sun with it 100 degrees out.

    is this safe for space heater or tower heater?
