MINIMUM CLEARANCE TO COMBUSTIBLES
Figure!1!

IMPORTANT SAFETY INFORMATION
-INSTALLATION AND PREPARATION SAFETY GUIDELINES
1. Before installing this outdoor firepit, check “Minimum Clearance to Combustibles” on page 2.
MINIMUM CLEARANCES must be maintained when you install this outdoor firepit. THERE
MUST BE AT LEAST 24” from the side of appliance to any combustible materials.
2. The outdoor firepit is for outdoor use only. DO NOT install or use this appliance inside a building,
garage, or any other enclosed area including recreational vehicles and/or boats. This unit must
be installed in such a manner that proper air ventilation is maintained without obstruction.
At all times, and during all weather conditions.
3. CHECK GAS TYPE (natural gas or propane): The gas supply you intend to use may not be the
same as that stated on your outdoor firepit rating plate. THIS FIREPIT IS CONSTRUCTED FOR
USE WITH PROPANE GAS. If the gas supply is different, or if you wish to change to natural
gas, you MUST have the firepit converted (method described on page 8) to the gas type
you intend to use, by a qualified, professional installer. If you are unsure, contact your dealer
for assistance.
4. DO NOT USE IF GAS PRESSURE IS LOWER THAN THE MINIMUM REQUIREMENT OR
EXCEEDS THE MAXIMUM.
5. FOR NATURAL GAS: The minimum inlet gas supply pressure for purposes of input adjustment
is 5 inches water column and maximum inlet gas supply pressure is 10 inches water column.
FOR PROPANE: The minimum inlet gas supply pressure for purposes of input adjustment is 8
inches water column and the maximum inlet gas supply pressure is 13 inches water column.
6. Gas piping system must be sized to provide minimum inlet pressure at the maximum flow rate
(BTU/hr). Undue pressure loss will occur if the pipe is too small or the run is too long
7. For installations at elevations above 2,000 ft., contact your local dealer or gas supplier before
installing as input ratings should be reduced approximately 4% for each 1,000 ft. above sea level.
Refer to the National Fuel Gas Code. Contact the factory for the required orifice.
8. The outdoor firepit and its main gas valve must be disconnected from the gas supply piping
system during any pressure testing of that system at test pressures in excess of ½ psig. This is
accomplished by closing the gas supply line valve, as required by NFPA 54, section 5-54.
9. The outdoor firepit must be isolated from the gas supply piping system by closing its equipment
shut-off valve during any pressure testing of the gas supply piping system at test pressures equal
to or less than ½ psig.
10. INSTALLER NOTE: This unit should be installed so that it can be removed at a later date
for service.
11. GAS SUPPLY PLUMBING REQUIREMENTS Apply only joint compounds that are resistant to all
gasses on all male pipe fittings.
12. DO NOT BURN SOLID FUELS OF ANY KIND IN THIS APPLIANCE.

SAFETY NOTE: An external on/off valve in the gas line is required for safety when your Outdoor
Firepit is not in use. It also provides for convenient maintenance and repair.

LP Tank Information
STOP – READ SAFETY INFORMATION BELOW
1. Other LP cylinders may be acceptable for use with your fire pit provided they are compatible
with your fire pit retention means and accompanied by illustrations depicting the cylinder
mounted to the appliance utilizing the cylinder retention means and the point of contact between
the cylinder and the retention means.
2. The LP gas supply cylinder to be used must be constructed and marked in accordance with the
U.S. Department of Transportation (D.O.T.) Specifications for LP Gas Cylinders, Spheres and

CONVERTING YOUR FIREPIT TO A DIFFERENT GAS TYPE
To convert your Firepit from propane to natural gas or natural gas to propane gas, carefully follow the
steps below:
1. MAKE SURE THAT THE GAS SUPPLY TO THE FIREPIT (AND ANY NEARBY ELECTRICAL
SOURCES/APPLIANCES) ARE SHUT OFF AND UNPLUGGED.
2. Remove all logs and lava rock or glass burner media from the Firepit enclosure and remove the
decorative top.
3. Remove the burner pan from your fire ring or enclosure.
4. Carefully detach the connector hose attached to the orifice holder and unscrew the orifice holder from
the burner pipe.
5. Remove the orifice from the holder and replace it with the proper sized one for your gas
requirement. Propane requires the smaller orifice.
6. If you are converting from natural gas (NG), to propane (LP) gas, slide the air shutter so that the air
intake hole is open. For natural gas, slide the air shutter so that the air intake hole is closed.
7. For natural gas (NG), you must install a gas pressure regulator. Adjust gas pressure regulator to 7
inches water column.
