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.
There's nothing like being in the great outdoors! The exhilarating feeling of being one with nature... the tall green trees, the ice cold rivers, the colorful chirping birds. For nature lovers, nothing can compare to the the sights, the smells and the sounds of the wilderness!
Now, your customers can bring all the feelings of the wild to their own fireplace with our 1/2" Yosemite reflective fire glass! Made up of a mixture of earth colors, these lovely reflective glass pieces really are reminiscent of the forest: green for the tall, eternal fir trees; copper for the ancient rocks and bright natural light; and even the 'white' colorless glass reminds one of the cold waters of the rapids... This is the perfect gift for the tree hugger!
A Practical Alternative to Ceramic Logs & Stones
Our Yosemite reflective fire glass isn't just enchanting to behold, but also very practical. It does a wonderful job of covering the entire floor of a fire feature, effectively hiding the unseemly gas pipes and tubes which are often visible in gas fireplaces and fire pits. This makes fire glass a more preferable alternative to the more common ceramic logs and fire stones.
Extremely Durable, Safe & Long Lasting!
All our fire glass is made from non-tumbled tempered glass, which means it can withstand temperatures of up to 1300 degrees Fahrenheit without cracking, or losing its color or shape. Our tempered fire glass is not tumbled which ensures an enhanced shine. Under normal conditions, this amazing product could last your customers a lifetime!
Furthermore, our fire glass does not release any smoke, ash, soot, or harmful chemicals, which makes it very easy to maintain. Your customers will be able to spend more time enjoying this lovely product and less time cleaning it!
