In some ways, gas fire pits feel a little bit like magic. Once they are installed, a gas fire pit allows you to turn on a flame with just the flip of a switch – a power that would have certainly been nothing but a dream just a few generations ago. Now, we take for granted the ability to create fire so quickly and easily, but it will only happen with the right hardware in place.  
 
If you are working on adding a gas fire pit to your space, or if you’d like to upgrade an old one, our selection of gas fire pit inserts is the place to start. These inserts live up to the quality expectations that you should have for everything else sold here on our site. Place your order today or reach out to us directly if you have any questions. 

What is a Gas Fire Pit Insert? 

A gas fire pit insert allows you to create the flames you would like to see in your fire pit. These are the inner workings that allow gas to flow up toward the top of the pit, where it will then be turned into flames to produce the ambiance and heat that you are hoping to add to your space. Without a quality fire pit insert, you won’t be able to have a fire for very long – or you may not be able to have one at all.  
 
It’s a good idea to turn to a trusted brand when ordering a gas fire pit insert, because quality is such an important piece of this puzzle. The insert is a relatively simple piece of equipment, but you need to be sure that it is made from durable materials and manufactured to a high standard. Choose yours from the selection we have here at CopperSmith and you are sure to be pleased with the product you receive.  
 

Find the Right Burner Shape 

The burner is the central element in a fire pit insert, and burners come in all different shapes and sizes. Generally speaking, you’ll want to find a burner that is going to roughly match the shape of the fire pit itself, but there is some wiggle room within that framework. For instance, imagine you have a large rectangular fire fit that needs an insert. A long burner that lines up the flames in a single row would work nicely, but you could also go with a parallel design, so you have two rows of flames running the length of the fire pit.  
 
For fire pits that have a circular shape, there are even more options. Of course, a round burner would work just fine in that setting, and you might choose to keep it simple by going in that direction. Alternatively, you could look into other shapes that will still make sense within the confines of a round pit, such as a star burner, or a circle that has multiple layers. By going with a more interesting pattern in your burner layout, you might find that the pit is more enjoyable and interesting while spending time relaxing with your friends.  
 

A Suitable Size 

Finally, make sure your fire pit insert is going to fit properly in the fire pit you have in mind for the project. There are plenty of different sizes available, so this task should be pretty easy. One important point to keep in mind is that you don’t have to use all available space in the fire pit for the burner and pan – you could choose to keep the burner setup a little smaller to keep more space open in the fire pit for the material you choose to use to fill the top of the pit.

FAQs

Picking the right gas fire pit insert for your needs is critical if you are going to get the performance you expect – but it can be a little tricky to find just the right product. Take a look at the frequently asked questions below for more information, and feel free to reach out to our team if you need assistance.  

How do I choose a fire pit insert? 

There are a number of factors to consider when shopping for a fire pit insert. First, think about the size of the ring, both in terms of inside and outside dimensions, to make sure it is going to work in your application. You’ll also want to look at variables like the thickness of the material used and the price of the insert. When you shop with a good brand like CopperSmith, you’ll get a quality product that is going to work reliably while delivering fair value for your money. Take a moment to explore the insert options we have available to find something that is ideal for your needs.  

Should holes in a fire pit burner face up or down? 

While they can be oriented either way, pointing the holes up is generally going to provide you with a larger flame, so most people will prefer that setup. Also, you might find that you get more efficient performance with this layout, meaning you’ll be able to keep your fire burning for longer on the same amount of gas. With that said, leaving the holes pointing up does allow them to welcome in more moisture, so consider using a fire pit cover when the pit is not in use to keep water out of the insert as much as possible.  

Can you use a gas fire pit inside? 

No – gas fire pits are intended for outdoor use. The issue here that you need to be concerned with is ventilation. You’ll need the gas that is coming off of the fire pit to disperse naturally in the outdoor air, rather than being captured inside and building up as you continue to let the fire burn. To that point, even when you are outside, it’s important to make sure you are in an area that is well-ventilated and won’t allow gases to build up to a dangerous level. Confirm that you have plenty of ventilation from the sides, as well as enough space up to any ceiling that might be covering your outdoor space, before you light the fire pit.  

Do gas fire pits give off smoke? 

One of the great things about sitting around a gas fire pit is that you do not have to deal with the smoke that will be produced when burning wood. Anyone who has spent time around a wood fire knows that the smoke tends to “chase” you around the fire, making it often uncomfortable and frustrating to try relaxing in this area. With a gas fire pit, there is no smoke to consider, so you can settle into your chair and enjoy the evening with your family and friends. 

How long can you leave a gas fire pit on? 

There isn’t a set time limit for running your gas fire pit. If you still have gas to keep it running, you can keep the fire going – but you likely will only want to sit around it for so long. And, if no adults are going to be in the area to pay attention to the flames, you should shut it off for safety purposes. Often, people will use a gas fire pit for an hour or two after the sun goes down before turning off the gas supply and calling it a night.  

Do gas firepits smell? 

When operating correctly, a gas fire pit shouldn’t have any smell associated with it. While the gas you are burning has had an odor added just for safety reasons, that smell will burn off when the gas is turned into flames, so you shouldn’t smell much of that gas odor while sitting around the fire pit. If you do smell a strong odor of propane, that’s an indication that gas is getting out of the pit without burning, and you should shut the pit off and have it inspected. You always want to err on the side of caution with a fire pit, so play it safe and make sure it’s working correctly.
