Know before you buy
GFRC is significantly lighter than traditional solid concrete while offering superior strength and resistance to cracking. This makes the Carmen fire pit durable enough to withstand harsh outdoor elements while remaining easier to position on your patio.
The Carmen fire pit is compatible with both fuel types, but you must specify your preferred fuel source at the time of purchase. The internal burner components are calibrated differently for natural gas versus propane, so it is not designed to be swapped easily once installed.
The match-lit system is a manual, reliable option that requires you to light the burner with a lighter while turning on the gas valve. The electronic ignition allows you to start the fire with the simple flip of a switch or push of a button, offering more convenience.
Yes, the burner system is fully compatible with fire glass. While the unit comes with a lava rock display, you can easily swap it out for fire glass to achieve a more modern, reflective aesthetic.
Because this unit involves gas line connections, we strongly recommend hiring a licensed professional plumber or gas technician to ensure the installation meets local safety codes and manufacturer requirements.
Yes, as a freestanding unit, it can be placed on a deck, provided the surface is level and stable. However, always ensure your deck material is heat-resistant and check your local fire ordinances regarding clearance requirements for gas fire pits.
