Have Questions About Fire Pits?
Fire pits are one of the most versatile features you can have to bring warmth and light to your backyard. Many outdoor fire pits can be fueled by gas or wood, though some are only able to use one or the other. We have many fire pits for sale that can suit any need. Fire pit rings typically are fueled by wood, while fire pit bowls are often available in both wood or gas. When it comes to fire pit tables or fire and water bowls, natural or propane gas is the only option unless you choose to buy a kit and make the fire pit yourself.
When you buy a fire pit pre-made, you are limited to the customization options that manufacturer offers. So, if you have a little ingenuity and the skill to create an outdoor firepit from scratch, you will have the added benefit of making it exactly as you'd like. There are so many other things to learn about when it comes to fire pits and their set up and features. Our fire pit buyer's guide was crafted to give the break down of each option and which may be right for your scenario. See our Fire Pit Buyers Guide to learn more.
I have a natural gas brick fire pit. I have put sand in the bottom and a mixture of lava rock and fire glass above the fire ring. My question: Should I cover the fire ring with sand before adding the lava and fire glass. Where do you recommend the sand level to be?
