Know before you buy
Yes, this pan is compatible with both fuel types. However, if you are using propane, you must install an air mixer to ensure proper combustion and prevent soot buildup.
This pan requires approximately 50 pounds of fire glass to achieve full coverage. We recommend filling it just enough to cover the burner holes for the best flame distribution.
The pan is crafted from 304 stainless steel, which offers excellent corrosion resistance. While it is highly durable, we recommend using the optional stainless steel cover when the fire pit is not in use to further protect it from salt air and debris.
The drain system prevents water from pooling in the pan during rain or snow. This keeps the burner components dry and helps prevent internal corrosion, extending the overall lifespan of your fire pit.
A wind guard is optional but highly recommended if your fire pit is located in an open or breezy area. It helps stabilize the flame, prevents it from blowing out, and improves overall heat efficiency.
A fully vented fire pit requires adequate airflow beneath the burner to prevent gas accumulation. Proper ventilation is essential for safety and ensures the burner operates at its intended 150,000 BTU capacity.
