How much Fire Glass do I need for my fire feature?
Use our handy fire glass calculator to determine how much fire glass you or your clients will need for your fire feature.
What is the difference between 10 pound bags of fire glass and 10 pound jars of fire glass?
The only difference is the packaging. The fire glass is the exact same. Jars are typically used to display in stores & bags are mostly used for shipping direct.
What types of fuel can be used with American Fire Glass?
Fire glass can be used with natural gas or propane.
Can I use fire glass with my ceramic logs or lite stone balls?
Do not place anything above the fire glass, that traps more heat, and the glass can fuse to itself.
Can I use recycled glass indoors?
Recycled Fire Pit Glass is for outdoor use only.
What is the difference between Premium and Classic Fire Glass?
Premium and Reflective are the same thing, it is made from colored glass with a mirrored finish on one side of each piece. Classic Fire Glass is colored glass without a mirrored finish.
Is the Luster Finish the same as the Premium Reflective?
Luster is different than premium/reflective, the luster coating resembles oil on water.
What type of glass works best with propane?
¼” will work with propane, but we recommend larger sizes of fire glass due to propane being heavier than air and the larger pieces give the gas less resistance.
Why Wash/Rinse with 50/50 White Vinegar and Water?
This will avoid water spots and helps to break down ‘soot’ residue.
Do I cover the burner with fire glass?
YES, a burner should NEVER be used unless it is completely covered. A 1/4" diameter media base is strongly recommended to cover the burner before applying the final topping. The media should cover the burner by about 1/2" to 1" before the final topping is added. Our small lava rock works best. Operating a burner without proper coverage can cause warpage and possible permanent damage to the burner and burner pan. This will also void the warranty on the product.
Some people say gray is boring, but we beg to differ. Gray exudes calm and tranquility. Though it is not glamorous, it has an undeniable quiet elegance to it. If your customers are looking for something graceful for their decor, introduce them to our gray fire glass from our 1/2" inch fire glass collection.
Similar to our 1/4" gray fire glass, this version is larger and chunkier, allowing for better air circulation and delivering a more impressive flame. Gray fire glass is beautiful on its own, but may also be used as a wonderful base color, which will help to accentuate other colors. It will blend seamlessly with any color scheme and décor style. Whether your customers have a classic or contemporary theme to their living or entertainment area, our 1/2" gray fire glass will add a touch of elegance and vibrancy to it.
A Practical Alternative to Ceramic Logs & Stones
Our gray fire glass is not just exquisite to behold, it is also very practical. It does a wonderful job of covering the entire floor of a fire feature, concealing the unseemly pipes and tubes which are often visible in gas fireplaces or fire pits. This makes fire glass a more desirable alternative to the more common ceramic logs and fire stones.
Extremely Durable, Safe & Long Lasting!
All our non-tumbled tempered fire glass is manufactured using a unique 5-step process that renders it great strength, heat resistance, and a brilliant shine. It has been designed to withstand temperatures as high as 1300 degrees without losing its color, shine, or shape. Under normal conditions, this amazing product could last your customers a lifetime!
Another advantage of fire glass is that it does not give off any smoke, soot, or ash so it is extremely easy to maintain. Thus your customers will be able to spend more time enjoying their gray fire glass and less time cleaning it!
