Realglow Warmpact Rattan Gas Fire Pit (Black/Grey, 80cm x 80cm)

What size gas cylinder does this fire pit require?

This fire pit is compatible with 13kg patio or leisure gas cylinders. A 6kg butane cylinder fits perfectly underneath the unit and remains hidden, whilst larger 12kg propane cylinders provide better heat output but won't fit underneath the base. The gas cylinder is not included and must be purchased separately. The unit comes with a 3-metre gas hose and 27mm clip-on regulator for connection.

How much heat does this fire pit produce?

The fire pit delivers 13KW of power output, equivalent to approximately 44,000 BTU. This substantial heat output is suitable for warming medium-sized outdoor areas and groups of people. The included lava rocks help distribute heat evenly and enhance the visual flame effect, making the heating more efficient and attractive.

Is assembly difficult and what tools are needed?

Assembly is straightforward and takes approximately 30 minutes. The fire pit comes unassembled but is designed for quick setup without requiring specialist tools. All necessary hardware is included, along with the gas hose and regulator. Most people can complete assembly independently following the provided instructions.

Can this fire pit be left outside year-round?

Yes, the fire pit includes a weatherproof cover that protects it from rain, snow and other elements. The rattan construction and tempered glass top are designed for outdoor use. However, using the provided cover when not in use will significantly extend the product's lifespan and maintain its appearance over time.

How does the table function work?

The fire pit includes a lid that converts the unit into a functional table when the fire is not in use. Simply place the lid over the fire pit area and you have an 80cm x 80cm surface for drinks, food, or decorative items. This dual functionality maximises your outdoor space and provides year-round utility.

What safety features does this fire pit include?

The fire pit features a removable glass wind guard that protects the flame from wind and prevents items from falling into the fire. The tempered glass top is heat-resistant and safe for outdoor use. The unit sits on plastic feet that prevent scratches when moving and protect surfaces underneath.

Does the fire pit require electricity to operate?

No electricity connection is needed. The push-button ignition system operates on battery power (battery not included). You simply insert the battery by unscrewing the ignition cover, then press the button to light the fire. This makes the fire pit completely portable and suitable for any outdoor location.

What maintenance is required for this fire pit?

Maintenance is minimal compared to wood-burning alternatives. There are no ashes to clean as it burns gas cleanly. Regularly check the gas connections for security, clean the glass surfaces as needed and store with the weatherproof cover when not in use. The lava rocks may need occasional cleaning or replacement depending on usage frequency.
