Outdoor Lanterns

Comment

Spend your evenings relaxing or entertaining on your deck, patio, or in your garden with the special atmosphere created by Patio Lanterns and Garden Torches. A single 16 oz. filling of citronella or lamp oil lights your desired area for an entire evening (over 10 hours). Patio Lanterns are easy to fill…just unscrew the oil container from the lantern body, fill, and replace. You may also choose to enjoy decorative copper torches near your table or scattered around the patio for subtle lighting. Lanterns and Torches are great for entertaining or just for enjoying your outdoor spa or patio area.

If you prefer an electric lantern, then try America’s most popular outdoor accent lighting…European globe style patio and planter lamps.

Whether your child is a budding trapeze artist, sea boat captain, racecar driver, or spelunker, swing sets and swing set accessories help to fuel imaginations and enhance playtime. spiral slides can transport your child down into a cavern’s depths, while  child-size rock climbing walls enable them to scale Mt. Everest.  Ships wheels, telescopes, and periscopes help them explore worlds across and under the ocean, while swing set steering wheels and telephones keep a modern kid in touch and mobile. Whatever play-world your child builds, swing sets will help provide inspiration and hours of entertainment.

Choose from a variety of swings to allow safe fun for your child’s different stages of development, bringing years of swing set enjoyment as your child grows. High-back, molded swing seats are good for the smallest playmates to enjoy motion and fresh air, while bucket seats provide support to bigger kids who are still learning balance and how to “hang on.” Belt and novel swings, trapeze rings, and gliders provide variety to older kids whose coordination and muscles are more developed.

Now that you have a backyard swimming pool, you’ll want to use it as much as possible. Make the most of your investment by adding a Solar Pool Heater, Gas Pool Heater, or Heat Pumpto your in ground or above ground swimming pool. You can extend your swimming season and spend more time in your pool because a Pool Heater or Heat Pump maintains a consistently inviting and comfortable water temperature. When other swimming pool owners are waiting for the weather to warm up in order to open their pool, you can be enjoying the luxury of a pleasant Spring time swim. And, even after Summer has come and gone, you will be able to take a relaxing dip in deliciously mild waters thanks to your Pool Heater or Heat Pump.

Solar Pool Heaters allow you to take advantage of the sun’s free energy. Solar Heaters are extremely efficient, inexpensive to operate, and are the ultimate in environmental friendliness. When combined with a solar pool cover, also known as a solar blanket, your Solar Pool Heater will maintain a comfortable water temperature well into the cooler months.

A Heat Pump is another good choice for efficiently heating your swimming pool. Heat Pumps take heat from the air and transfer it to the pool water. This makes the heating process ecologically safe, clean, and cost effective. In addition, Heat Pumps are easy to operate and can be used even in frigid conditions.

Gas or Propane Pool Heaters are yet another option for extending your swimming season.  Gas Heaters are highly efficient, durable, and corrosion resistant. In addition, many Gas Heaters for in ground and above ground pools are environmentally safe.

Patio Heaters Make Entertaining Outdoors A Breeze

Comment

Stay toasty on your deck or patio during even the coldest evenings with a Patio Heater. Entertain your guests comfortably on a frosty day, or cuddle up on your heated patio while the kids build a snowman in the yard. Patio Heaters allow you to enjoy your outdoor living spaces year round.

Patio heaters were created by leading designers of contemporary garden and outdoor lifestyle accessories and are not only very attractive and easy to maintain, they are also solidly constructed and very safe to use. The free-standing heaters are larger (about 95 inches tall) and more powerful than the table-top heaters. Table-top heaters, though, because they are lighter and smaller, are much easier to carry around wherever you want to go. To warm a larger area, you might want to try a free-standing commercial grade heater.
