Frequently Asked Questions

  • The Fire Pit Art Crater 36-inch gas fire pit is equipped with a Penta 24" 200,000 BTU stainless steel HPC burner, available in both Natural Gas and Liquid Propane configurations. This burner is rated to provide a flame ideal for small to medium-sized gatherings. It delivers strong ambient warmth but, like most open gas fire pits, is best suited for ambiance and supplemental heat rather than serving as a primary outdoor heater.

  • The Crater gas fire pit ships as a nearly complete kit — the gas version includes the fire pit bowl, the 200K BTU HPC stainless steel Penta burner, lava rock, a whistle-free flex line, a Dante valve, and a burner plate. Because Fire Pit Art products are made to order, expect a lead time before shipment, and the unit ships via LTL freight curbside delivery. A qualified technician is recommended to complete the gas line hookup to your natural gas or propane supply.

  • The Crater gas fire pit is available in two ignition configurations: a Match Lit system using a patented HPC stainless steel Penta burner, or the AWEIS (All Weather Electronic Ignition System), which includes a 24-volt AC transformer, fire module, heat shield, and installation instructions. The AWEIS system features flame-sensing technology and a windproof design, making it one of the most durable electronic ignition options on the market. A battery-operated electronic ignition option is also available for spaces where running electrical wires is not feasible.

  • The Crater fire pit is built from heavy-duty ¼-inch (6.35mm) thick mild carbon steel with a natural iron oxide patina finish on the exterior and a high-temperature-resistant coating on the interior bowl. The iron oxide finish is virtually maintenance-free and naturally darkens and matures over time with each use. The inner bowl also features a 1.5-inch rain drain, allowing it to be left outdoors year-round — just avoid covering it with a tarp, as this can blacken the patina and halt the oxidation process.

  • All components of the Fire Pit Art Crater are warranted for a period of 10 years after the date of purchase by the original owner, with proof of purchase required for warranty service. The HPC Penta stainless steel burner additionally carries its own lifetime warranty for extra peace of mind. Each fire pit is individually signed and numbered by designer Rick Wittrig, making every unit a one-of-a-kind, handcrafted piece made in Tennessee.
