Will this fire table give off real warmth, or just ambiance?
Yes — our concrete fire tables feature high-output stainless steel burners (up to 125,000 BTUs) that provide real warmth and inviting ambiance. Heat output depends on your gas type — propane fire tables typically deliver full performance, while natural gas fire pits should have a dedicated gas line for best results. Adding ceramic logs, fire stones, or lava rock helps retain and radiate more heat, creating a more comfortable outdoor fire feature experience.

How much propane does the burner use, and what’s the typical cost per evening?
A standard 20-lb propane tank provides about 6–10 hours of burn time depending on flame height. Most people run their propane fire table at medium settings for balanced heat and efficient fuel use.

What materials are used, and how do they hold up outdoors year-round?
Each piece is professionally cast and precision-made from architectural-grade concrete with marine-grade stainless hardware. The finish resists fading, corrosion, and freeze-thaw wear — ideal for outdoor patios, decks, and pool areas.

How do you hide or access the propane tank without disrupting the design?
Many of our propane fire pit tables include an access door with a lockable latch, allowing easy reach to the tank valves without interrupting the design. For styles that don’t accommodate an internal tank, our propane tank enclosures offer the perfect solution — they conceal the tank completely and double as modern side tables, maintaining a clean, seamless outdoor fire feature look.

How does the finish and hardware hold up in long exposure to the elements?
Our proprietary concrete blend and protective sealer are designed to withstand all climates — from southern heat to northern freeze-thaw conditions. Each concrete fire table is sealed for long-term protection against UV rays, moisture, and weathering. We use marine-grade stainless steel hardware to prevent rust or discoloration, ensuring lasting durability even in coastal or high-humidity environments.

How does wind affect the flame, and what can I do if my site is exposed?
Wind can influence flame height and movement on any outdoor fire feature. For breezy or open areas, we recommend adding a glass wind guard. Keeping the flame below the top of the guard helps maintain stability and consistent performance even in higher winds, while still showcasing the natural flame of your propane or natural gas fire table.

Is this meant to heat an area or more for visual effect?
A concrete fire table is designed to create an inviting outdoor experience — more about the event, atmosphere, and connection than large-area heating. The high-output burners deliver real warmth while the dynamic flame display sets the mood for gatherings. It’s a modern outdoor fire feature built to entertain, spark conversation, and bring people together around a natural, mesmerizing flame.

What should I expect for lead time, shipping, and service down the road?
Each concrete fire table is built to order in our Wisconsin studio, ensuring quality craftsmanship from start to finish. Lead times vary seasonally, and local customers can choose white-glove delivery and setup. We provide progress updates by text or phone, so you’ll always know where your order stands. Every outdoor fire feature is backed by available replacement parts and a structural warranty for lasting peace of mind and long-term support.
