Start with the setting. A covered porch calls for a unit listed for covered installation, while an open patio opens up fire tables and bowls. Then decide on fuel. Natural gas connects to a home supply and never needs a refill, while propane uses a portable tank and offers more freedom in placement. Compare BTU ratings, because higher output spreads warmth across a wider seating area. Look at materials that resist rain, UV and temperature swings, such as stainless steel and concrete. Plan electric or battery ignition, and a cover for off-season protection. Installation by a qualified technician is the safest option.
Running costs depend on local fuel prices. Gas saves on wood, tools and cleanup, and it is easier to control and shut off.
Often yes for a gas line or built-in installation. Check with your local building department before you start.
