LOCATION
Provide Adequate Drainage
Pots and tables should have adequate drainage for rainwater. Vent collars will provide built-in drainage – do not impede drainage.
Select a location with adequate drainage. All bowls, fire pits and enclosures must be drained to prevent water from accumulating.
Ensure Correct Clearance & Access
ACCESS: Leave easy adequate access for installation and maintenance.
Recommended Clearances: Sides 4 ft / Top 10 ft: Combustibles/structures not to be closer than 4’ on the horizontal plane, 10’ overhead. (FIG 1).
- No combustible structure should be above the fire feature. No more than two side structures should be around the fire feature.
- Do not recess the fire feature below ground/floor level
- Natural stone such as granite or marble must be kept away from heat and flame. Contact and close proximity can result in cracking or explosion.
- Install fire features out of the way of pedestrian traffic. Provide space to allow a safe distance from the heat and flame.
Base Setup
The base of all fire pots are open for plumbing/gas. The base is half the diameter of the width.
Pots and tables should always be installed on a level surface.
Weight of pots and tables will hold them in place, but a construction adhesive or screws can also be used for extra security.
