Fire pit rules in Senoia, GA — also called outdoor burning, recreational fire, or open flame ordinances — cover fuel types, clearances, and when burning is allowed.
Small backyard recreational fires are allowed in unincorporated Coweta County under the fire code enforced by Coweta County Fire Rescue. A recreational fire must stay small, sit well back from structures, and be attended with water or an extinguisher ready.
Coweta County Fire Rescue and its Fire Marshal's Office enforce the adopted International Fire Code countywide (Chapter 34 of the county code). A recreational fire burning clean, dry wood is allowed when it stays at least 25 feet from any structure, or 15 feet for a fire in an approved portable pit, and is attended by an adult with a hose or extinguisher on hand. Gas and propane fire pits count as approved appliances, exempt from open-burning limits. The metro-Atlanta summer ozone rules restrict land-clearing and yard-debris burns, not small warming or cooking fires. During drought, the Fire Marshal can suspend outdoor burning.
Burning too close to a structure or leaving a fire unattended draws an order to extinguish from Coweta County Fire Rescue, fire-code penalties, and liability for any fire that escapes and spreads.
