A fire pit is an outdoor fireplace that creates a warm atmosphere. Made of corten steel, cast iron, or black metal, it invites conviviality.

Choose corten steel for its natural patina. Opt for a freestanding model with a grill for safety.

Using a fire pit in your garden allows you to enjoy a pleasant heat source to extend your evenings outdoors. It also creates a friendly and warm atmosphere, ideal for sharing moments with friends or family.

There are different types of fire pits, such as those made of corten steel, cast iron, or black metal. Corten steel fire pits have the advantage of developing a patina over time, while cast iron or black metal ones offer a more raw and industrial look. Each material has its own aesthetic and practical qualities.

To maintain and clean your fire pit, first let it cool completely after use. Then, you can brush it to remove ashes and combustion residues. Avoid using aggressive cleaning products that could damage the material. A simple cleaning with water and mild soap is usually sufficient.

When installing your fire pit, make sure to place it at a sufficient distance from any combustible elements, such as plants, furniture, or wooden structures. A minimum distance of 2 meters is recommended to ensure your safety and prevent any risk of fire.

For optimal combustion in your fire pit, preferably opt for dry, hard wood, such as oak or ash. Avoid green or damp wood, which can produce more smoke. You can also use wood briquettes or wood pellets, which offer a more regular and cleaner burn.
