FAQs

What type of fuel can I use in this fire pit?

You can use either wood or charcoal to fuel your VonHaus Fire Pit. We recommend using dry, seasoned wood for the best burning experience and less smoke.

Can I use the fire pit on my wooden deck?

No, it is crucial that you never use this fire pit on wooden decking or any other flammable surfaces. Always place it on a non-flammable, stable surface like concrete, paving slabs, or gravel.

Does it come with a protective cover?

No, a protective cover is not included with the fire pit. A round fire pit cover (model 2500120) is available for separate purchase and is highly recommended to protect your unit from the elements.

How do I clean the fire pit?

Once the fire pit has completely cooled, remove all ash and debris. You can then wipe down the steel surfaces with a damp cloth. Avoid using harsh abrasive cleaners.

How heavy is the fire pit, and can I move it easily?

The fire pit weighs 4.1kg, making it lightweight and easy to reposition in your garden or patio as needed. Always ensure it has cooled completely before attempting to move it.

What are the dimensions of the fire pit?

The dimensions are (H) 55cm, with a base diameter of (D) 45cm and a lid diameter of (D) 54.5cm.

What is the warranty period for this product?

The VonHaus Fire Pit comes with a 1-year guarantee.

Troubleshooting

Fire is difficult to start or burns poorly.

Ensure you are using dry fuel (wood or charcoal). Check that there is sufficient airflow around the fuel; avoid overpacking the pit. If using wood, ensure smaller kindling is used to get the fire going before adding larger logs.

Excessive smoke is being produced.

Excessive smoke usually indicates wet or unseasoned wood. Always use dry, seasoned wood. Avoid burning green wood or materials that are not suitable for a fire pit. Ensure adequate airflow to allow for complete combustion.

The fire pit is showing signs of rust.

Rust can occur if the fire pit is frequently exposed to moisture. To prevent this, always store the fire pit in a dry place or use a protective cover when not in use. Regular cleaning and wiping dry after use can also help.

Sparks are still escaping despite the mesh lid.

While the mesh lid significantly reduces spark escape, very small embers can sometimes still pass through. Ensure the lid is properly seated. Avoid using very resinous wood that tends to spark more. Always maintain a safe distance and have a water source nearby.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup

Setting up your VonHaus Fire Pit is straightforward. Simply unpack the unit and place it on a flat, stable, non-flammable surface in your garden or patio. Ensure there's adequate clearance from any walls, fences, or overhanging structures. No assembly is required.

Compatibility

  • Fuel: This fire pit is compatible with both `wood` and `charcoal`. Use dry wood to minimize smoke and maximize heat output.
  • Location: Suitable for use on concrete, paving slabs, or gravel surfaces. Crucially, it is not compatible with wooden decking, artificial grass, or any other flammable surfaces. Always ensure good ventilation.
  • Accessories: While a fire poker and mesh lid are included, a round fire pit cover (model 2500120) is recommended and sold separately to protect the unit when not in use.

Care

Proper care will extend the life and appearance of your fire pit:

  1. Cleaning: After each use, once the fire pit has completely cooled, remove ash and debris. The steel material is easy to clean; use a damp cloth to wipe down surfaces. Avoid abrasive cleaners.
  2. Weather Protection: To prevent rust and maintain its finish, it is recommended to keep the fire pit out of the rain when not in use. Investing in a protective cover is highly advised for long-term outdoor storage.
  3. Storage: For extended periods of disuse, especially during harsh weather, store the fire pit in a dry, covered area.
