I'm doing some landscaping updates, and that will include an all-new fire pit area in the backyard. I hate burning wood, makes you stinky and takes too long. I like the idea of just flicking on a fire and having some drinks. I know real warmth from something like this requires some sort of media to create radiant heat. Has anyone done this? Any local suppliers or contractors?
Something like this would work I guess...but I feel like 65k BTUs might be light.
