WARNING: Proper clearances from combustible, construction and materials must be maintained from all sides, top
and bottom of this appliance. This appliance should never be placed on any combustible surface. This appliance
should never be placed closer than 36-inches from any side to any combustible construction or materials.
PREPARING A NON-COMBUSTIBLE STRUCTURE
1.Turn OFF gas supply system. NOTE: All gas connections (except for brass to brass) require the following. Clean pipe
threads using either a wire brush or steel wool. Apply Teflon tape or pipe sealant to the steel fittings before making any
connection. BE CAREFUL! Ensure all gas connections are snug, but not over tighten!
2.Extend the gas supply system using minimum of 1/2” black iron pipe or an approved flexible gas line from existing
house supply. This can be accomplished by teeing off or tapping into a convenient gas line connection. Install necessary
pipe for the distance required and then install a manual shut-off valve at the exterior house wall. If pipe is to pass through
a foundation or house wall, make sure to re-seal the area around the pipe with weather sealant.
3.From manual valve, extend gas pipe to the Fire Pit location. NOTE: If pipe is to be placed in an underground trench,
check with local codes for required depth and materials needed.
4.Install a ¾” female x ½” male flared brass fitting to the end of the ¾” black iron pipe. Be sure to clean the pipe threads
and use Teflon tape or pipe sealant.
5.Connect the ½” female flared flex connector from the Fire Pit to the ½” male flared brass fitting secured to the black iron
pipe. Note: Flare to flare connections do not require Teflon tape or pipe sealant.
IMPORTANT
The appliance and its manual shutoff valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping system during any
pressure testing of the system at test pressure testing of the system at test pressures in excess of ½ psig (3.5kPa).
This appliance must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its manual shutoff valve during any
pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal to or less than ½ psig (3.5kPa)

VENTILATION FOR NON-COMBUSTIBLE ENCLOSURE
Fire pits are subjected to many outdoor elements such as
rain, snow, wind, heat or cold. A minimum of 18 square
inches of cross ventilation (2 sides) is required to keep the
components in good working order. Use figure 3 as guide
to assist to incorporate proper ventilation. NOTE: Ventilation is
not required at the bottom and may also be incorporated in the
upper portion of an enclosure.
The Fire Pan is to be installed on a flat, stable surface, away from any combustible materials. Install Fire Pit on any level,
outdoor non-combustible surface. NOTE: Do not place fire pan directly on grass, dirt, or rocks this may prevent proper
ventilation.
HARD PIPING TO FIRE PIT WITHOUT GAS PROXIMITYNOTE: We recommend using 1/"2 or 3/4” black iron pipe however please refer to the NFPA54 (National Fuel Gas Code) for proper pipe sizing when exceeding 20-feet in length for fire pits rated above 100,000 Btu's

Fig. 4 Key valve components.
1.Only non-combustible materials should come in direct contact with any part of the Fire Pan. Underneath area should be
non-combustible as well.
2.Only use ¾” gas supply line to the Fire Pan. Based on the selection of the fire pan size, the proper brass fittings should
be used to ensure a proper installation.
3.Determine the size of the round or square Fire Pit you are preparing to install (Refer to page 4).
4.You must provide a round or square opening out to place the fire pan into the non-combustible enclosure surround. Do
not exceed the maximum opening from Table 1, dimension B.
5.Follow the local code requirements for the gas type being used. This Fire Pan should be installed in accordance with
local codes and ordinances or in the absence of local codes, with the latest National Fuel Gas Code, ANSI Z223.1
NFPA54.
6.Fire Pits create high temperatures, it is very important to have any combustibles at a safe distance.
7.CAUTION: A minimum of 18 square inches of cross ventilation (per side) is required to keep the enclosure dry.
8.These products are designed for outdoor use only. Not approved for any indoor use.
9.This Fire Pan is designed to have Lava Rock/Media completely covering the spoke burner, so that the burner is
invisible. Do not cover more than 2” above the top of the covered burner. When purchasing Lava Rock it is
recommended to use minimum of 1" diameter as a base to fill the burner pan. Decorative glass covering may be loosely
scattered on top of the rock if desired or non-combustible logs may be added for a campfire look. If logs are chosen, do
not place on decorative glass base, use only Lava Rock as the base.
10.Gas lines and fittings must be installed in to the non-combustible structure. All gas connections must be leak tested
before installation of the fire pit. Soapy water leak detection is required before regular use of the fire pit.
11.Do not use material that will absorb moisture over time and will not release this moisture quickly. Moisture can boil in this
material and can rapidly break apart and cause damage or personal injury.
12.Never leave any other combustible material on top of the fire pan. This could cause unsafe operation of this system and
damage to the component that will not be covered under our warranty.
13. Cover the complete burner with lava or decorative Rock material (min. 1-inch diameter). Completely cover the spoke
burner, no more than 2-inches above the spoke burner.

Plastic Mounting Nut
Fig. 7 Piezo igniter battery installation.
The piezo ignitor requires (1) AAA battery in order to spark/operate. Unscrew (counter-clockwise) the piezo ignitor cap
(See fig. 6) and insert the positive end of the battery into the ignitor body. Screw the cap (clockwise) until snug (See fig.
7). Careful not to overtighten the cap. Test the ignitor by pushing and holding the red button to ensure the ignitor probes
inside the fire pit are sparking. The spark should be located directly overtop of the burner port hole for proper ignition of
the gas (See fig.8). Spacing between the probe and spoke burner should be approximate! 3/16 -inch for proper spark.
IGNITOR ALIGNMENT (Manual Spark Ignition only) Ignition @ @ Spoke Burner
Hood �t--------
For proper ignition it is important that the ignitor probe
be properly aligned overtop of the burner port holes. Use
Fig.8 as a guide. Before lighting remove the screen cover of
the ignition hood to burner and ensure the spark probe is
directly overtop of a burner port hole. The sparking probe
must be in the path of a flame to ignite the gas for proper
ignition of the flame. Replace the screen cover and follow
the operating instructions.

INSTA LLATION OF LAVA ROCK/MEDIA INTO BURNER PAN
Install lava rock/media into the burner pan. Ensure the media is a minimum of
1-inch diameter for proper operation. Note: Do not pour Lava Rock directly from
bag. Media should be placed naturally and NOT packed in tight. Loose fitting is
important to ensure robust flames. Be sure rocks are free of any excessive dust.
This prevents the burner pan weep holes from being plugged and holding water.
IMPORTANT: Do not place media over top or under the screen cover. The
screen must be free of any debris to ensure proper lighting of burner and good
flame rectification.
Cover the burner completely with media but do not make the depth greater than
2 -inch overtop of the burner portholes.
Decorative glass may be loosely scattered on top of the lava rock. Do NOT
cover the stainless steel screen cover with any rock or glass. It must be free an
any debris to operate properly.
