What customers say
Customers consistently praise the exceptional quality and robust construction of this stainless steel fire pit pan.

Know before you buy
The unit ships configured for propane use. If you prefer natural gas, you will need to purchase a separate conversion kit to adapt the system.
The integrated thermocouple acts as a safety sensor that monitors the flame. If the flame is extinguished unexpectedly, the system will automatically shut off the gas supply to prevent leaks.
No, the burner holes are precision-drilled rather than punched. This manufacturing process ensures a smooth gas flow and eliminates the whistling noise often associated with lower-quality burners.
You will need approximately 25 lbs of fire glass to properly cover the burner area. Please note that the fire glass is not included with the kit.
While the system is designed for a drop-in installation, we strongly recommend having a certified NFI professional handle the setup to ensure all gas connections and safety protocols are met.
304 stainless steel is highly resistant to rust and corrosion, making it an ideal material for outdoor fire features exposed to the elements. It ensures the structural integrity and longevity of your fire pit pan over time.
