WHERE DO YOU PLACE A FIRE PIT?

Find a suitable place to position your fire pit so that your guests can sit around it easily. Take the heat from the fire pit into account and, for example, the presence of a barn or electrical appliances. Think of your own safety and always make sure you have an extinguisher nearby. These include foam fire extinguishers and fire blankets. Safety comes first!

For lighting the fire pit, use newspapers or preferably firelighters or paraffin lighting blocks. Never use liquid fuels such as spirit and the like! The chance of life-threatening accidents is enormous!

When you place a fire pit on a terrace, it’s a good idea to place it on a stone floor to prevent the ash from burning wooden planking. Make sure you place the fire pit far away from everything that can catch fire. Think of dead grass, dead leaves, a barn or a tree.

OTHER IMPORTANT MATTERS TO CONSIDER

Don’t extinguish the fire with water, since the sudden change of temperature can damage your fire pit. Instead, use sand or mud. Use a spark screen to prevent sparks from burning anyone. In addition, keep little hands away from the danger zone. There are various accessories available for the fire pit so that, for example, you can turn or add logs from a safe distance. If you are not using your fire pit in the winter months, cover it with a heavy waterproof cover to protect it from the changes in weather conditions.
