Base Preparation

If installing firepit on an unstructured base, please ensure to 

follow these steps:

1. Mark out the location for your firepit. Area should be slightly 

larger than 58"  in diameter as dimensions of kit are nominal.

2. Excavate for drain stone base (approximately 6").

3. Fill excavated area with drain stone, level and compact. The 

finished height of the firepit will be approx. 14.25" above base.

Instructions

Steps

1.  Place and center steel firepit liner on prepared base.

2.  Place 3"& 6" high blocks per the block layout pattern shown 

above. Keep the back of the blocks approx. 2" off of the steel ring.

3.  After placing blocks around the ring, adjust the blocks to close the 

circle and fit it tightly. If the blocks do not close the circle, move  

all the blocks slightly in. If the blocks seem too long, move the 

blocks slightly out.

4.  Fill gaps between ring and blocks with pea gravel. This will hold 

the ring in the center of the firepit.

5.  Place the cap layer in a circle around the firepit. Adjust the caps in 

or out to make them fit tightly together. Caps should slightly over-

hang the front of the blocks and be slightly forward of the outside 

edge of the steel ring.
