Easton - Smooth Texture Square Fire Pit Kit - Belgard

Each Belgard Fire Pit is made by various Belgard manufacturing plants across the country. Each manufacturing plant has their own specific capabilities and capacities, and the amount of square footage and weight by pallet can be different by plant. The below table contains the square foot and weight by pallet/cube, by each manufacturing plant. If you are ordering, this information is important for determining the right order quantity and correct shipping cost.

Before you begin, check the building code in your area and with your local fire department. There may be restrictions on open fires or requirements as to where you can place the fire pit in relation to your house or other structures.

The fire pit should sit on a firm, non-combustible base, such as 6” of compacted gravel. Dig a hole at the center point approximately 12” wide by 2’ deep and fill it with crushed stone. The hole acts like a sump to drain rainwater, ashes and soot.

• Use the insert as a guide to lay out the first course. Place it on the ground and position the block around the frame. Set aside the ring.
  - Round: 8 Large and 10 small units per layer
  - Square: 12 units per layer
  - Diameter - 39.5"
• Position the second course by offsetting the joints from the block in the row below. For a uniform inside diameter, plumb the units to the back of the block. Repeat this for the remaining courses until you have reached the desired height.
  - Round: 4 courses
  - Square: 4 courses
  - Diameter: - 28"

Insert the fire-ring into the blocks and check for a snug fit around the top flange. Fill the fire pit with a graded stone or sand to the bottom of the inside flange. Reposition blocks if needed. A few dabs of construction grade adhesive along the outside edge may be used to secure the top two layers of block.
