Gazebo with fireplace: project, construction, decoration

The arbor has become almost a mandatory attribute for private houses or suburban areas. It is built to organize outdoor recreation, but this structure protects against wind, direct sunlight or precipitation. Recently, the gazebo with the fireplace became very popular. The fact that domestic users of such designs prefer to combine a pleasant conversation with cooking dishes on fire and a feast. Therefore, in projects of arbours, sometimes very important changes should be made to realize all the ideas for improving the level of comfort.

General Provisions

To begin with, you need to understand that such an addition is radically reflected in any typical project. If you create a gazebo with a fireplace, first of all it affects the dimensions of the structure. It is necessary to allocate not only a place for brazier or other source of open fire, but also create a kind of security zone.

It is also very important to properly organize the system of ventilation and discharge of carbon monoxide. Otherwise, all rest can turn into mass poisoning. Some novice builders very often in the creation of such structures neglect the rules of fire safety, and this results in unforeseen fires and fire.

Particular attention is paid to the erection of the foundation. The fact is that the gazebo with a fireplace requires a special approach to making the base. The structure will have to withstand increased loads, constant temperature changes and external influences.

Project

A typical project of a gazebo with a fireplace usually consists of several parts. It includes a drawing of the pile field, since this type of foundation is considered optimal for such structures, as well as a plan for erecting the structure itself and a separate sketch for the manufacture of a furnace or other device for an open fire source. Given this, it can immediately be understood that a simple person, without experience, can not independently create such a project. However, even with a little technical training or if such schemes are available, you can choose the option that is ideally suited for a specific site.

Base

It is best to create a foundation for such structures from piles. It is erected very quickly, does not require large installation costs and allows construction to be carried out immediately after installation.

• First you need to make ground alignment. This is very important if the masonry of the fireplaces is done on a separate basis, although this action makes it possible to correctly position the piles.
• At the next stage, it is necessary to make holes in the ground at the location of the supposed location of the supports. Here the project of a pile field and a special device for drilling are useful.
• If the fireplace with a gazebo is made on the same base, then the supports must be located and below it closer to each other.
• To create such structures it is best to use screw piles. They screw it with a special device. It is important to note that two people will cope with such work.
• Next, you need to re-band the piles. They are connected along the perimeter using the channel and welding. You can also pour a kind of armopoyas of concrete. Which will perform the functions of the substrate.
• When doing these works, it is worthwhile to worry in advance about how the roof supports will be fixed and installed. This is especially important if you make a private gazebo with a fireplace, as you need to think over the fixation of several elements.

Installation of supports

The easiest way is to use a profile pipe to create a pergola. This material is quite practical, it is easy to work with, and its cost is considered optimal and comparable to its quality.

It is best to install the supports from the profile pipe on piles, welding them or using bolted connections. However, it must be remembered that barbecue fireplaces can also require special connection with supports, which means it makes sense to create adjustable fixation points.

All pylons need to be connected together. To do this, you can also use a profile pipe with smaller overall dimensions along the end. It is welded to the columns on the lower level, in the middle and above. This will give the structure additional strength and allow you to specify the distance for subsequent fixation of the partitions.

Floor

This process needs to be done taking into account the fact that in the future we need a fireplace masonry. It is best to immediately create a small base for the source of fire and protect it from heat transfer and expansion. Some masters suggest using a special damper tape and a refractory insulator. However for economy of means it is possible to leave simply a technological backlash with packing in it of sheets of asbestos.

It is recommended to make flooring from the board. It is enough simply to lay on the perimeter of the base of the lag, on which the material is nailed. If the appearance of the floor is important, then experts advise to perform a finish coating from the board. After that, the floor should be treated with a special impregnation, which will protect it not only from the effects of moisture and insects, but also from fire.

Fireplace

Even the simplest construction of a fireplace is a very complex and responsible process that requires the master to possess certain skills and knowledge. Considering this, many people prefer to turn to professionals who are not only good at their job, but also provide a guarantee for it.

To solve such a problem with minimal costs, it is possible to use ready-made designs, which recently can be purchased in the market or in special stores. They can be used as stand-alone products or can be sewn with a brick, giving a good appearance.

Roof

The most beautiful gazebos usually differ precisely in the construction of the roof. Therefore, the approach to this stage of construction is necessary with imagination. The fact is that even using the cheapest materials, you can build a building that can become a real work of art and stands out on the site.

The easiest way to make a roof frame is from a metal profile. It can be laid almost any cover, and the construction itself will be strong enough. Most masters tend to the fact that the roof needs to be made of metal. Modern manufacturers make this material with different colors, defined embossing and excellent protection from external influences. However, during installation, you can show your imagination and make the styling an original technique that will allocate the entire structure.

Partitions

If you create a winter gazebo with a fireplace, you should make special partitions that would close the structure along the perimeter. You can also make a door so that the inner room is protected from the cold. However, it is very important that all these systems can be removed or opened, since in the summer they will be superfluous and completely deprive the pleasure of rest in the open air.

For economy of means to make partitions it is possible from old window frames. With a certain treatment, they look very good and perfectly protect not only from the wind, but also from the cold. If you have a large budget, you should use wooden panels or other materials that have a good appearance.

It is more practical to create partitions that will protect the arbor from the floor to the middle of the height of the supports. The rest of the space can be covered with a special thick film or cloth. It is very practical and convenient, because it allows you to quickly adjust the resting place to any weather conditions and seasons.

Recommendations of specialists

• All fireplaces, barbecues or stoves must be separated from other elements of the structure in order to reduce the risk of fire due to temperature increase.
• If the construction is made of wood, then it must necessarily be treated with special compounds that reduce the risk of fire.
• It is desirable that the base of the fireplace rises above the floor covering by several centimeters. It is immediately necessary to lay the waterproofing to protect the structure from moisture from the bottom, and treat it with a special compound to reduce the thermal conductivity.
• It is very important to choose the right place to install the gazebo. The fact is that smoke from fire can interfere with others or go to other buildings. In this case, special attention is paid to trees, since such a neighborhood can adversely affect their life cycle.
• When creating a roof, you need to properly place the chimney in it. The pipe must not come in contact with the structure. It is best to use special segments to sell such a passage, which are sold in the construction materials markets. With them it is much easier to work and such a technical solution will save and protect the building.
• Tables and benches in the gazebo should be located at a certain distance from the sources of fire. In fact, before the fireplace or barbecue there should be space, which will be necessary for usability and protection from heat.

Conclusion

Even the simplest gazebo with a fireplace during its manufacture includes stages that require the presence of certain skills and abilities. Taking this into account, it is recommended to beginner masters to enlist the support of specialists and prepare in advance a high-quality project, compiled by people who are knowledgeable about this. Sometimes it is worth going to a small extra cost to get a beautiful, practical and, most importantly, safe building. The same applies to interior design, as the finished construction will only look in combination with the landscape itself.
