Know before you buy
No, the iron oxide patina is a natural, protective layer that develops over time and does not require sealing or maintenance. It is designed to withstand the elements and will continue to evolve in color as the fire pit ages.
The fire pit is configured for a specific fuel type at the time of manufacture to ensure safety and proper burner performance. You should select your preferred fuel source during the ordering process, as converting it later requires professional modification.
The Saturn features an AWEIS (All Weather Electronic Ignition System) designed specifically for outdoor use. It includes windproof technology and flame-sensing capabilities that automatically reignite the burner if the flame is extinguished by a gust.
Yes, weighing 125 pounds and constructed from 1/4-inch thick carbon steel, this fire pit is substantial enough to remain stable in most residential outdoor environments. Its low, 14-inch profile also helps it resist tipping in high winds.
Because this is a gas-burning unit, it should be placed on a non-combustible surface such as concrete, stone, or pavers. Avoid placing the unit directly on wooden decks or composite materials unless you use a proper heat-shielding base.
The unit includes a flex line kit and the burner system, but you will need to ensure your gas supply line is properly installed by a licensed professional. The fire pit is designed for a straightforward connection, but local building codes regarding gas installations should always be followed.
