The Outdoor Plus Tempe GFRC Round Fire Table – Natural Gas

A fire table gives an evening on the patio its center: a flame in the middle and a ledge at the edge for plates and drinks. The Outdoor Plus Tempe is a round fire table in glass fiber reinforced concrete (GFRC), in eighteen finishes, in one size of 48 inches, built for natural gas, with five ignition choices.

GFRC, or glass fiber reinforced concrete, is concrete strengthened with fine glass fibers and shaped by hand, so each piece carries its own subtle variation in color and texture.

Ignition System

Low Voltage Electronic Ignition and Plug & Play need a GFCI-protected outlet; Match Lit, Match Lit with Flame Sense and Fire Glow need no electrical power.

• Match Lit: Lit by hand with a long lighter or match held at the burner.
• Match Lit with Flame Sense: The pilot is lit by hand. After it lights, keep the valve knob pressed for 20 seconds so the thermocouple can heat up, as The Outdoor Plus's manual instructs.
• Fire Glow: Spark ignition with a flame sense pilot, powered by one AA battery, as The Outdoor Plus's manual describes it. Press the spark switch in short bursts until the pilot lights, then keep the valve knob pressed for 20 seconds, as The Outdoor Plus's manual instructs.
• Low Voltage Electronic Ignition: Electronic ignition run from the low voltage transformer The Outdoor Plus provides (input 100 to 277 volts, 3.0 amps; output 30 volts DC, 240 watts). Connect the transformer to a GFCI-protected outlet, as The Outdoor Plus's manual requires.
• Plug & Play: Electronic ignition with a three-prong plug. Plug it into a GFCI-protected outlet, as The Outdoor Plus's manual requires.

Installation Readiness

This fire table runs on natural gas, which needs a permanent gas connection, and a licensed gas professional makes that connection following The Outdoor Plus's instructions. Low Voltage Electronic Ignition and Plug & Play also need a GFCI-protected outlet, and the other three ignition options need no electrical power.

Care and Use

• Let the table cool completely before cleaning. Spray the enclosure with water and wipe it dry, and do not spray water directly onto the burner or the igniter.
• Clean the burner periodically with a soft wire brush, and check it for insects and debris.
• Check the gas connection for leaks before each use, and have a qualified field service person inspect and clean the table at least once a year.
• When the table is not in use, turn off the gas at the source, and cover the table with a full-length cover once it has cooled.
• Use natural gas only: never charcoal or other solid fuel. Do not cook on the table, and do not use it in windy conditions.
• Keep decorative media no more than 1 inch above the burner, and use only media rated for fire.
