Basic Fire Pit & Fire Bowl Safety Guidelines

We have provided some basic guidelines for the safe use of fire pits, fire bowls and other fire units. These are not intended to be the only guidelines to be taken into consideration for the safe use of a fire pit, and are provided for educational purposes only. Always use good judgment when adding an outdoor fire element to your outdoor space, as well as good judgment when using it. 

• When considering adding a fire pit or other fire element to your outdoor space, you should always consider safety first, this is the best way to ensure that your experience with your new fire pit will be as enjoyable as possible!
• When starting a fire in your fire pit, use flammable fire starters with great care to avoid injury to yourself, others around you and to your property. Keep fire starting accessories out of the reach of children. Never leave children unattended with a fire pit or fire element.
• Since fire pits, bowls and other fire elements stand above the ground, always be careful not to allow tipping over of the item to avoid fire hazard. 
• Never over load your fire pit with wood; building too large of a fire in a fire pit that is not designed for such use may result in damage to you, your property and to the fire pit. Be sure to read all information about the size and use of a fire pit before selecting one, to make sure that the fire pit is appropriate for your intended use. Always read the manufacturers materials before using your fire pit for the first time to ensure optimal use.
• Always check with your local government entities regarding compliance with local codes and ordinances.
