Q&A

Diameter of glass shield

Hello Gary, Great question! The diameter of the glass shield is approximately 24.8". Thanks for asking! Best, Emma

Is a special mat required in order to use the fire pit on an open Trex deck?

Hey, Tricia! Thank you for your question. For an open deck, it’s recommended to use a heat-resistant mat or barrier under the fire pit. While gas fire tables like the Square 42" Fire Pit Table produce less heat downward than wood-burning pits, they can still warm the surface over time. Hope this helps! Best, Miriam

Can the glass barrier be removed?

Hi Bill! Thank you for your question. We do not recommend removing the glass barrier, as it is an important safety feature of the product. Thank you, Amber

Do you make a lid to cover the firepit bowl so that it can be used as a table when the fire pit is not in use?

Hello Jeneyl, Thank you for your question. While our firepits do come with a cover for the full table we do not include a lid specifically for the fire pit bowl. Best regards, Clayton

How many BTU?

Hi Mark! Great question — the Round and Nautical Fire Pit Tables produce 60,000 BTUs per hour (LP or NG), while the Square Fire Pit Table ranges from 60,000 to 90,000 BTUs. Thank you, Amber

I live in the Midwest so the winters can be harsh. Will the cover provided be enough to protect the firepit in the winter? Is there an option to put a flat cover over the bowl to protect it? The provided cover collect rain and has to be scooped out every time it rains. Also, do the chairs need covered in the winter?

Hi Sandy, Thank you for your questions! The cover provided with the Fire Pit Table is designed to keep dirt and debris away from the heat source. Although you don't need to cover your POLYWOOD furniture, this can prolong its life and make cleaning easier between uses. POLYWOOD does not sell furniture covers directly, but you can purchase them from retailers such as Coverstore. Coverstore also offers optional airbags that can be inflated to fill in the fire pit area so rain doesn't pool. You'll need the product's dimensions to find a cover that properly fits your furniture. Use our Product Search page to find your furniture, then check the _Product Details_ section to see the specific dimensions. Thanks, Lana

I am a loyal customer of over 20 years, I have purchased 15 of your items at full cost, I would like to purchase another 6 chairs, however it would be nice if I could buy them at a discount. Could someone tell me when I can look for those promotions please? Or are you willing to offer me a discount on 6 Vintage garden arm chairs in Gray Color?

I bought some extra glass beads. Can you cover the burners with glass beads and not create a problem?

Hi Beth, Thank you for your question! We recommend only using the 2 bags of glass beads that come standard with the Fire Pit Table. Adding additional beads will impede the gas flow and potentially cause the Fire Pit Table to malfunction. Thanks, Lana

Can the fire tables be Connected to natural gas lines?

Hi Jay, Great question! You can choose from either LP – Liquid Propane, or NG – Natural Gas. POLYWOOD Fire Tables come set-up for LP, however a NG conversion kit also comes with the unit. Thanks for asking, Lana

I read responses to questions under the Nautical and Round fire pit tables saying that the Square table's BTUs range from 60,000 to 90,000. Can you briefly describe what modification or requirement has to be met to obtain the 90,000 over 60,000 BTUs? Thank you, in advance.

Hi Gina, there is a knob to adjust the flame height on the unit. The higher the flame, the more BTUs. Typically you can operate for an average of 8 hours when burning on high and up to 16-20 hours when burned on low. Thanks for asking! Lana

One piece of the glass fire guard broke. How can I I order on piece of glass?

Hi Anne, I'm sorry that a piece of the glass guard broke. Please reach out to our Help Center for assistance with getting a new part. Thanks for asking! Lana

42" Fire Table how many BTU's? How do you switch it to Natural Gas or do you need to order it that way?

Hi Robert, Thank you for your inquiry! The Fire Pit Table produces between 50,000 and 60,000 BTUs and comes with the converter to switch from propane to natural gas. Thanks! Lana

How do Polywood fire pits hold up to hail? Also, how do Polywood fire pits withstand so much heat?

Hi Laura, Thank you for reaching out, and these are really great questions! POLYWOOD fire tables are rated at 55,000 BTUs per hour, and have the same durability standards as our POLYWOOD furniture. While they can be used in humid areas that experience a lot of rainfall. they should be covered once they've cooled to protect the burners from moisture, rainfall, and hail. This simple step will allow your family to get much more mileage out of your piece and avoid any potential damage to the inner mechanisms. Hope This Helps! Tracey

Purchased prior to including the wind guard, glass stones and cover. Can I purchase just the wind guard!

Hello Randee, Fire Pit Tables purchased from POLYWOOD have always come with the wind guard, glass stones and cover. If you have a POLYWOOD Fire Pit Table and are in need of a new wind guard, you can contact customer service at hello@polywood.com. They will need your order information, to ensure that you would be getting the correct wind guard, and can then help you with that purchase. Thanks, Mindy

Does the fire pit come assembled?

Hello Lisa, Thank you for your question. The fire pit table does require assembly upon delivery. Our goal is to ensure your satisfaction, and we provide detailed assembly instructions to make the process as straightforward as possible. I hope this helps! Thank you.

Can the fire pit be placed directly on a Trex deck without a heat barrier underneath it?

Hi Mark, Excellent question! The Square 42" Fire Pit Table is safe to use on wood and composite decks, concrete patios, yards, etc. Thank you, Michelle

Can it be used under a covered Patio ? The roof is 9-11ft high.

Hello Brigit, The Firepit itself is not approved for that type of application, however, there shouldn't be a problem if the patio is covered, but not enclosed, and has a minimum porch area of 96 square feet and the ceiling is at least 92 inches high. Thanks, Mindy

Is there a cover for the actual fire pit so it could serve as a larger table?

Hello Ray, Great question! Our fire pit tables do not come with POLYWOOD covers for the burners to make a table from the fire pit when not in use. Our Burner components do come from The Outdoor Great room Company and they do sell a variety of accessories for the burner bowls. outdoorrooms.com/fire-pit-tables-crystal-firer-plus/accessories?page=2 Thank you for reaching out, Mindy
