Gas Fire Pit Installation and Fire Table

Gas fire pits and fire tables are one of the best ways to extend outdoor living, entertain comfortably, and add warmth and atmosphere to your space. However, because they are fuel-burning appliances, it is essential to hire a licensed plumber or gas professional for gas fire pit installation, especially when connecting to the gas source. The fire pit must be installed on a flat, level, non-combustible ground or surface such as a patio, deck, or leveled yard.

Natural Gas Fire Pit Installation

We install factory-built and custom fire pit systems, ensuring correct gas supply sizing, secure fittings, ventilation clearances, and safe ignition operation.

When planning your gas fire pit installation, we carefully consider the gas source and route the gas line from the utility supply to the fire pit, following all safety codes. We use a flexible, whistle-free flex line to connect the gas supply to the burner system for safe and efficient gas flow. For safety, we install an easily accessible manual shut-off valve near the fire pit.

The burner system is the core of your fire pit, available in various shapes, sizes, materials, and BTU capacities. A drop-in pan supports the burner and holds the media, such as lava rock or fire glass. If you are using propane, an air mixer is necessary to ensure proper combustion and optimal flame quality.

All gas connections are thoroughly leak-tested before use. We apply a soapy water solution to each connection; bubbles indicate a leak that must be sealed before operation.

Fire Table Installation and Setup

Fire tables require careful assembly and testing before use. We ensure your appliance is mounted on a flat, level, and stable non-combustible ground or surface. Our technicians use a whistle-free flex line to connect all gas connections securely to the fire table, ensuring proper gas flow and safe operation.

Fuel Conversion Services

If you want to switch from propane to natural gas or vice versa, we provide safe, code-approved conversion services. When converting to propane, a propane air mixer must be installed to ensure proper combustion. Always hire a licensed gas professional to handle fuel conversions.

Gas Fire Pit Repairs and Troubleshooting

If your system is not lighting properly, producing weak flames, or showing signs of wear, we diagnose the cause and restore reliable operation. During troubleshooting, we check all gas connections for leaks by applying soapy water and watching for bubbles.

Safety Compliance and Code-Approved Installation

A properly installed gas fire pit protects your family, home, and insurance coverage. We ensure your installation meets current code and safety standards, including compliance with natural gas codes and all applicable local code requirements. For added safety, a shut-off valve is installed near the fire pit for quick access during maintenance or emergencies.

Why Licensed Gas Installation Is Essential

Protect Your Home and Family

Professional installation reduces risk and ensures your fire feature operates safely. Always maintain at least 10 feet clearance from structures, low-hanging branches, or power lines.

Avoid Gas Leaks and Ignition Hazards

Our technicians test all gas fittings and ignition components to verify safe performance using a non-corrosive leak detection solution.

Meet Local Codes and Regulations

We install systems fully compliant with permitting and gas code requirements. Natural gas fire pit installations often require permits.

Maintain Manufacturer Warranty

Many products require licensed installation to maintain warranty coverage.

Annual Inspection and Maintenance Services

Like any gas appliance, outdoor fire pits and fire tables require routine servicing. Dirt, debris, windborne materials, and weather exposure can obstruct burner ports and affect operation.

1
Full Burner Inspection

We remove and examine fire media and access burner components to ensure all burner ports are clear and not blocked.

2
Cleaning and Debris Removal

Burners, ports, air openings, and surrounding areas are cleared of dust, lint, and debris. Fire glass is cleaned with soapy water to remove soot buildup.

3
Performance Testing and Ignition Check

We confirm safe flame quality, ignition reliability, and fuel pressure using a manometer, and pressure test gas lines for leaks.

4
Preventative Care to Avoid Breakdowns

Annual maintenance reduces nuisance failures and keeps your system functioning smoothly. We recommend yearly service, especially before peak outdoor seasons.

Signs Your Gas Fire Pit or Fire Table Needs Service

If you notice any signs of a gas leak or suspect a gas pressure issue, consult a licensed technician immediately for safety. Service should be scheduled promptly if any of these are present.

Delayed or failed ignition
Weak, low, or uneven flame
Soot buildup or flame discoloration
Unusual gas smell
Clicking or popping sounds
Wind sensitivity or inconsistent operation
Visible debris blocking burner ports

Fire Pit Components and Accessories

A well-designed gas fire pit relies on a combination of quality components and the right accessories to deliver both performance and style in your outdoor space.

At the heart of every gas fire pit is the burner, which is responsible for producing the flame. Burners are typically constructed from durable materials like stainless steel or brass. The burner pan supports the burner and holds the fire media, ensuring the flame sits flush and distributes heat evenly.

The gas valve and key valve are essential for controlling gas flow and flame height. Many systems include an ignition system, ranging from simple match lit systems to advanced electronic ignition.

To enhance the look and feel of your gas fire, you can choose from a variety of fire media. Fire glass offers a modern, reflective surface, while lava rock provides a more natural, rustic appearance.

2
Safety Review and Compliance Check

Clearances, location, ventilation, and load requirements are evaluated to ensure compliance with safety standards.

4
Final Testing and User Guidance

We walk you through safe operation, lighting procedures, and maintenance tips, checking for gas leaks before first use.

Fuel Options: Natural Gas vs Propane

Both options offer excellent performance depending on your needs.

Natural Gas Fire Pits

A natural gas fire pit connects directly to your home's gas line, providing a constant fuel supply and making it more convenient and cost effective for long-term use.

  • Permanent fuel connection: requires running a natural gas line from your home's gas source to the fire pit location, installed by a licensed gas professional
  • No cylinder refills
  • Ideal for long-term installations

Propane Fire Pits

Propane fire pits operate on liquid propane stored in portable propane tanks, making them easier to install and more portable. A propane air mixer must be installed to ensure proper oxygen mixing and clean combustion.

  • Flexible placement and portability
  • Easy to relocate
  • No fixed line installation required

Fuel Conversion

We safely convert systems when permitted by the manufacturer and applicable code. For all fuel conversions, it is essential to hire a gas professional or licensed plumber to ensure safe, code-compliant installation and proper fittings.
