Though we admit this one may be somewhat of a no-brainer, in today's blog, we will discuss the reasons why outdoor kitchens are ideal for the warmer months of the year - particularly during the summertime. With the summer season now fast approaching, many have begun to take to the outdoors to enjoy all sorts of quality time, and if you have an outdoor space in your home, you might have already done so. We believe that an outdoor kitchen is sure to upgrade any occasion during the warmer months! To learn more about the benefits of having an outdoor kitchen during the summer, keep reading below, or if you're looking for a professional team in Arlington Heights, IL to design and build a beautiful outdoor kitchen, consult us at Erdmann Outdoor Living today! Call or request an estimate to take the first step toward a stunning outdoor living space. We look forward to hearing from you.

Summers are for Socializing

Thanks to the warmer and more pleasant weather, the summer season is one that is synonymous with gathering, whether it's with friends, family, or both. Outdoor kitchens will take virtually any social event to the next level, especially cookouts, dinner parties, birthday parties, graduation parties, and other events that usually involve the preparation of food. Most would agree that open-air events are special during the summertime, so why not let an outdoor kitchen make it even more so? Treat your guests to the great taste of food prepared in your outdoor kitchen.

Reducing the Heat in Your Home

Though many may not think of it, outdoor kitchens do their part to reduce indoor heat, which can be especially beneficial during the summer. Since outdoor kitchens prompt you to do the cooking and preparation outside, you won't have to worry about raising the interior temperature of your home, helping you to save money on energy-related expenses, which, as we all know, can be a tempting thing to do during the summertime. As a homeowner, an outdoor kitchen will help you enjoy peace of mind, as the temperature of your home will stay the same way it was before you started cooking.

Just got my pergola done by these guys! Everything looks amazing. The design was exactly what we were looking for and everything was completed on time. John, the project manager always kept me updated and his crew Hayden, Samuel, and David did a great job as well. Highly recommend!

We were very pleased with the installation team (led by Josh, that included Ramon and Hayden - all were excellent). The quality and functionality of the StruXture unit is very impressive. We are very satisfied with the entire Erdmann team.

Greg L.

I was very impressed from the initial meeting to the final approval. They did a great job of providing periodic updates and keeping me in the loop as the project moved forward. On-hand crew was outstanding with Justin and team. I would recommend them to family and friends.
