How to Build an Outdoor Gas Fire Table

Create a cozy and inviting outdoor space with a custom gas fire table. Here's a step-by-step guide to building your own:

1. Gather Materials

You'll need the following:

Fire table base
Fire table top
Gas burner kit
Lava rocks
Igniter
Propane tank
Hose and regulator
Screwdriver
Wrench

2. Assemble the Base

Place the base on a level surface. If necessary, attach the legs or other support structure.

3. Connect the Burner

Connect the gas burner to the base according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically involves threading the burner into the base and securing it with bolts.

4. Add Lava Rocks

Spread a layer of lava rocks over the burner. These rocks will help distribute the heat evenly and create a realistic flame.

5. Install the Top

Carefully place the fire table top over the base. Align the top with the burner and secure it with screws or bolts.

6. Connect the Propane Tank

Attach the propane tank to the hose and regulator. Connect the hose to the burner. Check for leaks by spraying soapy water around the connections.

7. Install the Igniter

Install the igniter according to the manufacturer's instructions. This typically involves attaching the igniter to the burner and wiring it to a switch.

8. Test the Fire Table

Light the fire table using the igniter. Adjust the flame height as desired. If the flame is too high, it can damage the fire table. Make sure to keep a fire extinguisher nearby for safety.
