Gas
• Only use the gas/fuel type specified for this fire pit, refer to the label on
the fire pit control box. Never use an alternative fuel to include biofuel,
ethanol, lighter fluid or any other fuel.
• Gas pressure and type should be checked prior to use and installation.
- Natural Gas Fire Pit: Supply Pressure: Minimum: 6.0
inches W.C.; Maximum: 7.0 inches W.C.

If pressure is low, this will reduce flame height
on HIGH setting, possibly resulting in little to
no flame variation.
