We cannot build any fire pits underneath patio covers, arbors, or pergolas due to fire & city codes in our area. Most cities require you to be 10 feet away from roofs, arbors, pergolas, fences, or anything combustible. Some cities require you to be 15 feet or more from your house or fence. In addition, some cities will not allow you to build any wood burning fire pits but will allow gas fire pits.
