Valencia is a versatile product that can be installed as a fire pit with the use of the Accessory Kit or can be used to build a circular garden wall or planter. Whatever application you decide to use, Valencia will blend in perfectly with your landscape décor and enhance your outdoor living space.
Location
- A fire pit is for OUTDOOR USE ONLY and, of course, a fire pit should NOT be used inside a building,
garage, shed, or any other closed space. - When selecting the area to install a fire pit, make sure to allocate a minimum distance of 19,6 feet from any structure or building (ex. house, garage, gazebo, etc.)
- Make sure that there is nothing directly above the fire pit area that can be a potential fire and/or injury hazard such as tree branches, awnings, patio umbrellas, electrical wires, transformers, etc.
Operation and Maintenance
- The fire pit area must always be clear and free from any combustible materials such as gasoline, propane tanks and/or any other flammable vapors and/or liquids.
- Always have a fire extinguisher or garden hose nearby your fire pit for any potential emergency.
- Avoid using your fire pit in windy conditions.
- At each use, before starting a fire, remove all accumulation of ashes, wood and debris from the fire bowl and inspect the overall fire pit and accessories to ensure that it is in safe operational condition.
- Place logs on top of the Log Support Grill. DO NOT OVERLOAD THE FIREBOWL.
- Only use a small amount of dry and clean hardwood for burning in your fire pit. Never use fire accelerants in your fire pit. Do not use charcoals or burn leaves, trash, paper, cardboard, and softwoods such as pine, cedar and plywood to avoid increased airborne sparks from your fire pit.
- Cover the fire bowl with the spark screen at all times when the fire pit is in use. The handle of the spark screen becomes very hot from the fire and therefore the spark screen should only be handled with the use of heat resistant gloves and the poker stick. Heat resistant gloves should also be used when adding wood into an active fire in the fire bowl.
- Children and pets should NEVER be left unsupervised when the fire pit is in use. We highly recommend that good fire safety measures are practiced and that you and your guests maintain a minimum distance of 36” away from an active fire to avoid potential injury.
- Do NOT sit, lean on or stand on the fire pit wall.
- Ensure that the fire pit area is always clear of toys, clothing, etc.
- Do not use the fire pit for cooking purposes.
- Never leave an active fire unattended.
- Allow the fire to burn out naturally unless it is an emergency. Extinguishing an active fire with water or any other liquid may cause the metal components of the accessory kit to warp and will encourage the formation of rust.
- It is recommended to replace 6″ of clean stone at the bottom of the fire pit annually to maintain proper water filtration.
