What are the regulations for outdoor fireplaces in New York State?

We bought an outdoor fireplace with a chimney. Are they allowed in New York State with the new laws?

I was unable to find information on State laws rgarding outdoor fireplaces ( and fire pits ). However they are now illegal within New York City. There is a local law.

What you need to do is find out what the law is in your municipality since it seems that is how outdoor fireplaces are regulated. Try calling your town or city hall, or the fire department - they would know.
