We will provide you with a pro number once your fire pit ships so you can track your curbside delivery. It is important to visually inspect and photograph the crate for anything that appears damaged or out of place prior to accepting the delivery and contact us immediately. We take great care to ensure all goes well but at the outside chance that something goes wrong we like to be prepared.
How do I care my fire pit/table?
Wipe up any spills immediately and keep the burner area free from any foreign debris. We apply several coats of all-weather sealer for protection so a good coat of paste wax (Trewax, Johnson’s, etc.) is going to give your fire pit that extra protection.

Your fire table can be match lit, push-button or remote control.

Our fire tables are available in multiple finishes including Hand-Packed Natural Open Finish for random variations that highlight concrete’s unique character, Hand-Packed with Grouted Color Variation, and Smooth and Naturally Variated.
What are the benefits of a gas fire table/pit?

You’ll never need to shop for or chop firewood. It turns on and off easily without any smoldering ashes or embers to worry about. There will never be any ashes to shovel or dispose of.

They range from 200-400 lbs. depending on which fire pit you purchase.
How do I set up my new fire pit?
Your liquid propane fire pit only involves connecting the gas line fitting to your liquid propane source. Natural gas fire pits will require a natural gas line to be installed by a certified professional. This is usually a new construction or remodel situation where a gas line has already been planned for.
