Outdoor Fireplace + BBQ Gas Line Installation in Kawartha Lakes

Tired of replacing liquid propane tanks on your outside grill, firebowl, patio heater, or outdoor fireplace? We don’t blame you. The good news: there’s a better way. A safer, more convenient way. British Empire Fuels can run a propane or natural gas line from your home’s existing heat source to your outdoor space and patio. It makes all the difference in the world. 

Enjoying the outdoor spaces in your property is one of the joys of homeownership. From grilling on the patio to full-scale outdoor kitchens, and from patio heaters to outdoor fireplaces, there are so many ways to entertain and make the most of your own backyard. What’s not so entertaining is needing to continually replace a liquid propane tank (or worse yet, running out when you don’t have another tank on hand). 

 

Installing a propane or natural gas line as a more permanent fuel source is a great solution to this headache. Exterior fuel lines are a popular choice for many of our customers, and for good reason.

Here are 5 things you need to know about exterior fuel lines (propane or natural gas).

  1. Safety. Any time you install or remove an exterior liquid propane tank there is room for error, complication, or compromised parts. Having an exterior fuel line professionally installed is significantly safer.

  2. Convenience. With a backyard fuel line, fuel to your BBQ, grill, or outdoor fireplace is tank free. No replacing tanks, returning empty tanks, or running to the store for more. 

  3. No running out. Exterior propane or natural gas lines extend your home’s existing fuel source from the inside… to the outside. That means that you won’t run out. It will be a continual supply for you to use as needed. 

  4. Flexibility. Exterior fuel lines can be used for any number of outdoor products and appliances. From BBQ grills to fire bowls and firepits to outdoor kitchens and fireplaces, our Kawartha Lakes customers have used professionally-installed natural gas or propane lines to support a wide range of outdoor amenities. (Note: if you are currently using propane tanks and want to switch the fuel source to a permanent line, you’ll need to confirm your equipment is compatible. Make note of your unit’s make and model, which will help determine whether it’s convertible, and what size lines we need to run.)

  5. Professional installation is key. Any time you are working with a fuel source, highly skilled installation is absolutely critical. Your BBQ recipe may be a DIY treasure, but the fuel source to that BBQ needs to be in the hands of professionals. British Empire Fuels can consult with you to advise you on the installation, location, and procedures required to equip your outdoor space with a built-in fuel line. 

Propane lines and natural gas lines from your home to your backyard are a great choice for many of our Kawartha Lakes customers, from Bobcaygeon to Fenelon Falls to Lindsay to Peterborough.
