Fire Glass Use and Care Manual
The hottest design trend in Outdoor living is the use of fire glass to attract attention towards bright fires. The proper use
of aesthetic products such as fire glass will create a zealous effect to the senses. For these intended results, follow these
specific instructions.
How much fire glass does my bag cover?
1. Each five-pound bag covers approximately 0.24 square feet.
2. Each ten-pound bag covers approximately 0.5 square feet.
3. Each twenty-five-pound bag covers approximately 1.16 square feet.
How much fire glass does my fire pit need?
1. For rectangular fire pits – (desired glass height x depth x length) / 19 = pounds needed in glass
2. For round fire pits – (desired glass height x diameter x diameter) / 19 = pounds needed in glass
Warning: fire glass is sharp and will need to be handled with caution. We highly suggest wearing rubber gloves or using a
shovel when in contact with glass.
Instructions for use:
Upon receiving your bag of premium fire glass, we recommend tearing from the side towards the top of the bag or
cutting the top with scissors. We urge you to handle with care due to the potential harm of glass edges being sharp.
Next, take a large bucket and pour the glass contents into the bucket. Rinse off the glass to remove unwanted dust
created during the manufacturing process. Empty glass contents of the bucket on a towel and allow a few hours to dry.
Now that your fire glass is clean, you are ready to prepare your fire pit. It is our suggestion for the most unique look to
use reflective fire glass for use in propane or natural-gas fire pits. We suggest an inch layer of sand or pea gravel on the
bottom of the fire pit for a sturdy foundation. Next, take your fire glass and pour the fire glass around the fire pit and
burner so it fills just enough glass to cover the burner. When the fire pit is turned on, the flames should almost look as if
they float and dance around the fire pit.
