Add a Square Gas Fire Pit Insert With Nothing to Plug In
Light a square fire yourself, and the gas shuts off if the flame goes out. A spark igniter in the valve box starts the pilot, then you turn the knob to light the main burner. This square gas fire pit insert comes in 18, 24, 30 and 36 inch pans, with a Standard Penta or Torpedo burner, on natural gas or propane.
Key Features
- AA battery igniter: an AA battery fires the spark igniter, so the pit needs no outlet or wiring.
- Flame sensing: a thermocouple shuts off the gas when the flame goes out.
- Blowout box: a metal box shields the pilot from wind and rain.
- Deep bowl pan: 2 1/2 inches deep, so it holds more media than a flat pan.

The Full Picture
To light it, turn the knob on the valve box to the pilot position, hold it in and press the spark igniter until the pilot lights. Keep holding the knob for 20 seconds, then turn it to light the main burner. This square gas fire pit insert sets into an enclosure you build from noncombustible materials. Choose natural gas or a square propane fire pit insert. Propane runs on fixed piping, and the 18 and 24 inch sizes also come in a small tank version.
