Troubleshooting

Fire pit won't light or burns poorly

Ensure you are using dry, seasoned firewood. Check that the ventilation is not obstructed and that the fire pit is not overloaded with fuel. Never use spirit or petrol for lighting.

Uneven burning or excessive smoke directed at users

Adjust the log placement to allow for better airflow. Ensure the fire pit is positioned correctly in relation to seating areas to take advantage of its natural ventilation design.

Visible rust appearing on the surface

This is a natural characteristic of weathering steel and can add to its aesthetic. For significant rust that may compromise integrity, clean the area and consider applying a suitable high-temperature sealant or protective coating designed for fire pits.
