Do you have a house with a small outdoor space but still want it to look cozy and be functional? Our outdoor patio furniture and grill store in southern New Hampshire is constantly helping customers with small outdoor spaces pick out the perfect pieces for their deck, patio or balcony.

Bar table and stools. These small tables are the perfect size for any small space. Most sets come with two chairs and are a great option for couples who enjoy eating and entertaining outside. Bar tables are usually circular or square in shape and come in a variety of materials such as wood, cast iron and stainless steel.
Love seat. If you don't have the room for a three-seated outdoor couch on your patio but still want to be able to sit outside and enjoy the view, our patio furniture store highly recommends purchasing a love seat. These two seaters are cozy, affordable and don't take up too much room. Our friendly and approachable staff will help you choose the material you're looking for and you'll also have fun choosing a cushion and throw pillows to match the rest of your patio decor!
Adirondack chairs. Although these types of chairs take up more room than others, they are a great option for people who don't do much entertaining and just want to relax. The chairs are traditionally made of wood but are also available in a plastic resin material that requires less maintenance. Pair your Adirondack chairs with a small end table and make yourself comfortable.

Types of Porch Furniture Material

barbara@alternativeenergyhearth.com (Kevin Cini) — Wed, 17 May 2017 15:38:53 GMT

Decide which furniture material is best for you!

It's porch chilling season and you're probably thinking about upgrading your old porch furniture in light of something new and trendy. The problem is: there's so much to choose from! There are hundreds of different styles and colors that it can be overwhelming to even start looking.

If you're feeling lost on your hunt for new porch furniture, start by deciding on what type of material you want on your deck or porch this season. Here are your options:

Aluminum. This is a lightweight and durable material that won't rust or fade. It's also affordable and cleaning it is a breeze (soapy water). Note that aluminum is often powder coated, so be sure to get pieces with UV-resistant finishes and rust-proof nuts and bolts.
Plastic/Polymer/Resin. Again another lightweight and affordable material, plastic-based porch furniture also comes in dozens of colors. What's great about these materials is that they are stackable and don't require painting or resealing. To wash, simply use soap and water.
Steel. Sturdy and durable, steel porch furniture may be heavy, but at least you can rest assured it won't go anywhere in the event of a storm. One issue is that steel can become hot to the touch, so we recommend purchasing weather-resistant cushions. Be sure that if your furniture isn't stainless steel that you add a protective finish to it every season to prevent rust.
Wicker/Rattan. Wicker porch furniture is great for those who want a more rustic, cottage feel for their outdoor space. Wicker furniture is lightweight and comfortable and can be used in indoor or outdoor spaces. If your wicker furniture is painted, be sure to wash the pieces wish care by opting for gentle cleansing soap and a non-abrasive cloth or sponge.
Wood. Solid, sturdy and long-lasting, wood is always a go-to for porch furniture. What's great about wood is that it doesn't absorb heat, so you can leave that Adirondack chair out in the sun as long as you want! Unfortunately wood furniture can be pricey, but it's worth the investment. Note that you may have to repaint the furniture if it came painted, or apply a preservative to protect it from insects and rot. We recommend storing wood furniture in the garage or basement during the winter.
Wrought Iron. Another sturdy type of material, wrought iron is heavy but can easily withstand the New England elements. Wrought iron pieces can be made very intricately and are available in multiple styles. Keep in mind that each piece will need to be protected against rust. Clean easily with mild soap and rinse thoroughly.

Interesting in seeing what your options are for each of these porch furniture materials? Head over to our location at 114 Lafayette Road in Hampton Falls NH.

Benefits of Using a Gas Grill

barbara@alternativeenergyhearth.com (Kevin Cini) — Mon, 10 Apr 2017 14:43:07 GMT

It's finally warming up here in Southern New Hampshire and we've already been sending homeowners on their way with brand new gas grills! With the start of grill season, there's always a great debate regarding what type of grill reigns king: Gas or charcoal.

At our outdoor patio furniture and grilling supply company, we may be biased, but gas is the way to go! Here are some reasons why:

Convenience. If you're cooking for your family after getting home from a long day at work, a gas grill is so much more convenient than a charcoal one; there's no having to wait around for the grill to get hot.
Speed. Not only will a gas grill heat up faster, but also end up cooking your food quickly and evenly. The gas grills properly disperse the heat so that every part of your food is cooked to your liking.
Control. Simply flip a switch or turn a dial and the temperature of your grill will change almost instantaneously. With charcoal grills it's difficult to cool things down, and in a situation where a grease fire occurs, gas grills are more responsive and safe.
Cleanliness. No more needing to empty the charcoal grill of spent coals. Instead, gas grills dispel hardly any ash and they are easier to clean the grill surface.

Our gas grill and patio furniture company offers homeowners in the Southern New Hampshire area with an extensive collection of gas grills from the best name brands in the industry. Choose from the following:

No Power No Problem. Get a Gas or Wood stove, or insert and be warm no matter what the weather brings.

Be Warm & Ready for the Winter!

In the winter, fireplace inserts provide elegance, warmth and efficiency of a wood-burning fireplace with less work. One of the benefits about having a gas fireplace or stove is that it will light during a power outage since it doesn’t require electricity! A gas fireplace will offer a sense of relief when it comes to wondering where your heat is going to come from in the case of a power outage.

A wood stove or insert is a great opportunity to stop heating your home with oil can as well as reduce your home heating costs. When the insert is not in, the closed air tight glass doors will not allow the heated inside air from breaking out through the chimney and will also stop cold outdoor air from getting into the home. For a wooden fireplace insert, they are also easier to clean out and use during the winter months.

It’s important that during the winter months you are prepared for any snow storms that could result in losing power in your home. If you're interested in getting a gas or wood stove or insert for your home this winter, contact us today at 603-926-0388 or fill out our contact form online!

Preparing Your Fireplace for the Winter

barbara@alternativeenergyhearth.com (Kevin Cini) — Thu, 13 Oct 2016 19:37:31 GMT

One of the best parts of winter is getting to stay warm and cozy up by a fireplace in your home. With winter being only a couple months away, now is the perfect time to make sure your fireplace or fireplace insert is in the best condition possible.

With wood fireplaces or inserts, you should make sure to clean out the firebox with a vacuum and clean out any grime buildup on the walls of your fireplace or in the opening into the chimney.

If you have a wood stove in your home, it’s vital that you inspect it for any cracks in the bricks and in the metal before winter comes. When checking your door gasket, make sure that the seal is secured. If your door isn't tightly secured, smoke could get into your home and lose heat.

It’s important that during the winter you make sure that you properly remove ash that has built up. This also applies to pellet stoves, you will want to remove the combustion and distribution fans then vacuum out all the residue and soot.

When you own a gas fireplace it’s nice and easy because you don’t have to worry about cleaning up any ash. However, you will want to do a full inspection and check if there are any cracks or scratches on the glass. When the glass is scratched, the high heat can cause it to shatter.

If you’re in need of repairs for your fireplace or insert, contact us today at 603-926-0388 or fill out our contact form online!
