Making Your Outdoor Space Comfortable - Tech Tips from Best Buy

Whether it’s bugs, a blazing hot sun or even some dipping temps, many things can put a damper on an otherwise beautiful day in your backyard. In this video, a Best Buy Home Expert will show you how to make your time outside more comfortable. First, let’s talk heating. There are several popular options. If you want campfire vibes, consider a wood burning fire pit. Some are even low smoke. If you want the fire without the smell, we have trendy fire pit tables that give you space to rest your snacks and drinks. Another option is a gas fire pit that lets you adjust the heat, so you can fine-tune the temperature to your weather. Finally, if you need something that can move around depending on what you’re doing or the time of year, then a portable patio heater might be best. Next, add some shade. Think about putting a patio umbrella over your outdoor dining area. Many outdoor tables include a hole for an umbrella, or get an umbrella you can move around to block the sun when you need it. Some umbrellas even tilt so you can adjust it to catch the angle of the sun. And don’t forget to get a study stand. It’ll help keep the umbrella anchored and upright. If you want something more permanent, a pergola is a great option. You can customize it with lights and even a ceiling fan. Last, bugs will probably invite themselves to your party without an invitation. We have two good options to control bugs in your outdoor space: bug repellent devices and bug traps. Repellents use chemicals, which disperse around the space to repel mosquitos around them. Trap devices actually attract bugs, then trap them in a compartment. Because they attract bugs, traps should be set up 20 feet or more from where people hang out. 0:00 Comfort is key 0:41 Heating options 2:39 What are BTUs? 3:59 Shade options 5:04 Bug control options Shop outdoor living: https://bby.me/8bf1hu Shop outdoor heating: https://bby.me/kfe86j Shop patio umbrellas: https://bby.me/f480r8 Shop bug repellents: https://bby.me/qjl1jj Shop products from this video: Solo Stove - Ranger + Stand & Shelter 2.0 Bundle - Stainless Steel https://bby.me/0w78z7 Yardbird® - Fire Pit Table - Square - Espresso Brown https://bby.me/kwyqok Cuisinart - Propane Patio Heater - Stainless Steel https://bby.me/u7fg1c Sun Ray - 9'x7' Rectangular Solar Lighted Umbrella - Royal Blue https://bby.me/yweil7 Patio Premier - 26lb 18" Preston Composite Umbrella Stand – Black https://bby.me/4sr98x Thermacell - Rechargeable Mosquito Repellent https://bby.me/hz6vt0 DynaTrap - 1/2-Acre Decora Series Insect Trap – Metallic https://bby.me/7pzkt4 If you’d like to call, chat or schedule a free consultation with your own Best Buy Home Expert, visit this link: https://bby.me/HomeExpert For additional tech products and tips, subscribe to Best Buy: https://bby.me/Subscribe #BestBuy #Outdoors #OutdoorTech
