How delivery works

DeliveryHow it works

Because most of our products are huge, it’s difficult for us to keep stock of all of them. For this reason, we deliver a lot of our products directly from our suppliers and manufacturers, to offer you a great price and a fresh braai and a warm fireplace.

PRIORITY DELIVERYWe will make sure you are kept in the loop at every single step of the way and we will have your order processed as a priority. Tracking number included.

FREE DELIVERYLook, it’s free but we are unable to provide an exact time or take specific delivery requests as we are at the mercy of our suppliers. We still do our best to deliver as quickly as possible and in most cases we are much quicker than the stated turn around time.

Mail us for any queries.

YOUR FIRE PIT, YOUR WAY

Your fire pit.
An easy gas flame.

Build the fire pit to suit your garden, then set this burner into a round cut-out in the top. Press the piezo igniter and a real flame rises over gas logs with ceramic ash or diamond black glass, with no wood to chop or carry. The logs are a decorative fuel bed, so this is a gas fire through and through.

  2. ODS safety pilotOxygen depletion safety system
  3. Decorative gas logs, not for burning wood
  4. Clear 1,500 mm above and 800 mm to the sides300 mm underneath
  5. The enclosure needs its own ventilation and gas design

WHEN THE SUN GOES DOWN

Let the evening carry on outside.

After the braai, pull the chairs closer and keep talking around the flame. The fire lights at the press of a button and goes off just as easily when the evening ends.

The fire pit enclosure, seating and garden are not included. A registered gas installer must confirm the gas supply, ventilation and clearances.

A LITTLE PRACTICAL THINKING

Plan the pit around the burner.

THE FLAME

A real flame without the wood.

Light it with the piezo spark, and an ODS safety pilot keeps watch on the oxygen around the fire. Choose gas logs with ceramic ash, or diamond black glass, for the look you like.

THE BUILD

Built into your own fire pit.

The burner pan sits in a 400 mm round cut-out in the top of your fire pit. Two vent panels come with it, so plan where they go in the enclosure when you build.

THE SPOT

Open air, out of the wind.

Use it outdoors where there is plenty of fresh air, away from strong draughts such as narrow walkways. Wind can affect how the burner works.

  • PLANNING NOTES
  • You build the fire pit. The burner pan sits in a round cut-out in its top.
  • The kit uses LPG, with piezo ignition and an ODS pilot.
  • The fire pit still needs a full ventilation and gas design. Use the burner instructions for it.
  • A registered gas installer must check the clearances, the gas supply and the ventilation of your fire pit.
  • These are product sizes, not the size of the fire pit. Ask us for the build sizes before you build.

GOOD TO KNOW

Plan your setup.

Plan the enclosure, gas supply and clearances before you build.

What is included?

The LPG fire-pit burner with its pan, piezo igniter and ODS safety pilot, your chosen fuel-bed finish and two 260 × 110 mm vent panels. The fire pit enclosure, gas cylinder, regulator and gas installation are separate.

Can I burn wood on the ceramic logs?

No. The logs are a decorative gas fuel bed. This is an LPG burner kit, not a wood-burning fire bowl.

Which finish should I choose?

Choose gas logs with ceramic ash for a log-fire look (the set has five logs), or diamond black glass for a modern look. Both sit on the same burner.

How big a hole do I cut?

Cut a 400 mm round hole in the top of the fire pit. The burner pan is 424 mm across, a little wider than the hole, and its inner diameter is 386 mm.

What clearances does it need?

Keep at least 1,500 mm clear above the fire pit, 800 mm to the sides and 300 mm underneath. Use it outdoors with plenty of fresh air, and avoid strong draughts such as narrow walkways, because wind can affect the burner.

What gas setup does it need?

It runs on LPG at 2.8 kPa operating pressure, with a regulator of at least 4 kg/h. The maximum input is 11.4 kW (41 MJ/h), and the gas inlet is an 8 mm compression fitting. A registered gas installer must connect it.

How does it light?

Press the piezo spark igniter to light it. The ODS safety pilot watches the oxygen level and needs at least 18.5% oxygen in the air to stay lit.

Can I use it indoors?

No. It is an outdoor burner kit. Install it in an open outdoor area with ample ventilation.
