Elementi Birmingham Outdoor Dining Table with Fire Pit

For propane setups, you'll need a standard 20 lb propane tank (available at most hardware stores), a clear 18-inch radius around the fire pit, and a level, non-combustible surface.

For natural gas installations, you'll need a licensed gas professional to run a dedicated gas line to your fire pit location.

Check local building codes and HOA regulations before installation. Never use your fire pit in enclosed spaces or under covered structures without proper ventilation.

Propane setups are DIY friendly and take 15-30 minutes. Simply connect the included hose to your propane tank, insert the AAA battery, and test the ignition.

Natural gas installations require a licensed professional to run gas lines and ensure proper pressure regulation. Most installations take 2-4 hours depending on distance from your gas meter.

We recommend professional installation for both fuel types if you're uncomfortable working with gas connections.

Minimal maintenance keeps your fire pit performing for years. Cover the table when not in use to protect from debris and moisture. Clean the burner pan monthly during active use by removing media and wiping away dust or debris.

Check gas connections annually for leaks using soapy water. Store lava rock in a dry location during extended periods of non-use. Touch up any concrete chips or scratches with the included repair kit. Winter storage isn't required, but ensure the table is completely dry before covering to prevent freeze damage.

Yes, with proper precautions. The Birmingham is engineered for year-round outdoor use and can withstand freeze-thaw cycles. In winter, ensure the fire table is completely dry before covering to prevent ice damage. Propane tanks may need insulation in extreme cold to maintain pressure. Always clear snow and ice before use and never operate in enclosed spaces.

Cheaper fire pits use thin stamped steel that rusts within 2-3 seasons, require constant replacement, and lack the heat output for functional warmth. The Pacaya uses commercial-grade GFRC concrete and a CSA certified burner system engineered for 10+ year lifespan. When you factor in replacement costs, professional aesthetics, reliable performance, and the hidden tank compartment that eliminates visual clutter, the Pacaya delivers better long-term value than disposable alternatives.

No. The Birmingham is designed exclusively for propane use and features a hidden tank compartment that conceals a standard 20 lb propane tank. It cannot be converted to natural gas. If you need a dual-fuel option, consider the Elementi Columbia, Manchester, or Lunar fire tables, which can be converted with an Elementi conversion kit.

Yes. The Birmingham measures 48" L × 48" W × 27" H and weighs 243 lbs. It's CSA certified for outdoor residential use on patios, decks, and other outdoor surfaces. Ensure your deck can support the weight (243 lbs plus the propane tank). For technical questions about your specific installation, contact our team at sales@luxyardandhomes.com.
