Flame Guards
-
Why do I see two different dimensions for the flame guard?
The assembled dimensions are larger than the pan so that the flame guard rests on the tabletop and sits away from the flames.
-
What size flame guard do I need?
You can look up our Flame Guard size chart here to determine the best size for your fire pit. We recommend having at least a 2.5” clearance on each side of the burner area of your fire pit, and that your flame guard be placed on the outside of your fire pit for optimal performance.

-
What is a flame guard and what does it do?
A flame guard (also called a wind guard) is a clear glass barrier that surrounds your fire pit burner. It helps block wind, stabilize the flame, and protect surrounding surfaces and people from direct heat.
-
Do I really need a flame guard for my fire pit?
If your fire pit is in a windy or open area, yes. A flame guard keeps your flame steady, improves fuel efficiency, and protects the flame from being blown out. It is especially important for electronic ignition systems.
-
Will a flame guard block the heat?
Not at all. Flame guards are made of tempered glass, which allows heat and light to pass through while shielding the flame from wind.
-
Are flame guards safe to use?
Yes. Our flame guards are made from high-strength tempered glass that’s heat-resistant, shatter-resistant, and designed for high-temperature environments.
-
Can I use a flame guard with any fire pit?
Flame guards work with most fire pits, especially rectangular, square, or round fire tables. Just make sure you choose the right size and shape to fit around your burner area.
-
How do I choose the right size flame guard?
Measure the burner area, not the whole fire pit. Your flame guard should be about 2–3 inches larger than the burner on all sides for proper protection and ventilation.
-
Will a flame guard block my view of the fire?
Not at all! The clear glass gives you a full view of the flame while adding a sleek, modern look to your fire feature.
-
How do I clean a flame guard?
Simply wipe it down with a soft cloth and ammonia free glass cleaner. Make sure the glass is cool before cleaning to avoid streaking or cracking.
-
Can I leave my flame guard on year-round?
Yes. It’s designed for outdoor use and can stay on in all seasons. For extreme weather or long periods of non-use, you can store it indoors to keep it looking brand new.
