LONG TERM USE
1. Barkman wall blocks are not fire-
rated and are not covered under the
Barkman warranty. It is the customer’s
responsibility to ensure that the wall
blocks are adequately protected.
Firebricks or a fire pit liner are
recommended to improve the integrity
of the product.
3. Fill 4" with 3/4" limestone and
compact.
4. Level out 1" of sand and install kit as
per the instruction guide.
For installation on a solid base such as
an existing patio:
1. Once installed, insulate the patio from
the fire using all-purpose sand or rock
to fill in the fire pit.
2. Base prep and excavation is not
necessary. Proceed to Step 1.
2. Barkman fire pit liners will eventually
rust aer prolonged fire exposure. An
oil-based rust paint spray can be used for
added protection or aer rust occurs.
3. This fire pit is not suitable for large fires.
Do not allow flame to contact the top
layer. Fire pits should not be placed
directly on concrete as high heat can
adversely aect the integrity of the
product.
