The Convenience of a Propane Fire Pit
We recognize that many people want to go outside in the spring, stay outside longer in the summer, and remain outside in the fall. So, when the sun sets and the temperature drops, there’s no better time than to sit around a fire on your backyard patio or wood deck.
This all sounds fantastic until you realize that you can’t have a wood fire pit because you live in an area with a fire ban. Or, you think that you can’t have a gas fire pit because your outdoor space has no natural gas connection. Don’t despair. Your solution: a propane fire pit.
All you need is a propane source or a 20 lb standard propane tank. This convenient option lets you have memorable moments with family and friends around a fire. You’ll come to see how your pit will serve as the destination of choice for kids to make delicious s’mores and for adults to talk comfortably into the evening. You can create this backyard retreat by using our online Firepit Builder to customize a propane fire pit made from solid granite!
Our Purpose
Because memories are made around a fire, we commit to fabricating fire features that will last for years to come. Staying true to our word means using quality materials.
Granite is truly the best in withstanding extreme heat from countless fires. By using granite off-cuts to manufacture our fire features, we not only delivery quality, beauty and strength, but also save spectacular granite from ending up in landfills.
Frequently Asked Questions
Yes, a standard 20 lb propane tank fits inside the granite base of your propane fire pit when you select ‘chatting’ height. This gives you a 20” high fire pit, within which you can place an 18” high standard propane tank.
Yes, propane fire pits give off heat to warm the surrounding area without toasting your guests. The heat from a fire pit is measured in BTUs. The larger the burner, the more BTUs it produces. For our granite propane fire pits, the commercial grade stainless-steel burners come in three sizes and produce the following BTUs:
⦁ Round 20” = 55 000 BTUs
⦁ Round 30” = 106 000 BTUs
⦁ Square 24” x 24” = 55 000 BTUs
Yes, you can safely assemble a propane fire pit on a wooden or composite deck. Unlike wood burning fire pits, propane fire pits do not produce damaging sparks or embers.
Yes, propane fire pits require ventilation. Air flow allows your propane fire pit to release excess gas from the burner and granite base. Plus, ventilation provides you with a higher flame while protecting your burner from excessive heat. To learn where to position the ventilation gaps on your granite propane fire pit, check out how to assemble a propane fire pit.
A fire pit wind guard rests on the top row of granite to surround the stainless-steel burner. Because the guard has rubber feet, you can easily lift and remove it.
Lighting a propane fire pit is a lot like starting a barbeque. To produce heat instantly from your propane fire pit, follow these two easy steps:
1) Turn on the propane from the supply line or propane tank; and
2) Push the button on the control panel to spark the ignitor while turning the dial to control the height of the flame.
No, you cannot cook over a propane fire pit burner because the food’s drippings would clog the ports of the fire pit burner. Plus, our fire pit burners are UL listed as decorative gas appliances, not cooking appliances.
Yes, propane fire pits can get wet. If your fire pit is uncovered while it’s raining, there’s no need to worry. Our commercial grade stainless-steel burners feature raised ports with a pitched design. This allows water to drain to the bottom of the burner and, then, to the granite base of your propane fire pit.
Your fire pit burner will come ready to burn liquid propane. You can easily convert it to burn natural gas, though. You won’t need to buy a conversion kit. Our burners come with all the necessary hoses and valves for the conversion. Watch our video on how to convert your fire pit burner from propane to gas.
