Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use this wind guard with a wood-burning fire pit?
This wind guard is designed specifically for gas fire pits. Wood-burning fires produce higher temperatures, more smoke, and flying embers that can damage the glass and create safety hazards. Use only with propane or natural gas fire features.
How do I install the wind guard?
Installation involves attaching the mounting brackets to your fire pit or fire table, then securing the glass panels into the brackets. The stabilizing feet provide additional support. Detailed instructions and all necessary hardware are included.
Will the glass crack from heat?
No, the tempered glass is specifically engineered to withstand the heat from gas fire pits without cracking or shattering. Tempered glass is heat-treated to resist thermal shock and can handle the temperature fluctuations of outdoor fire features.
How do I clean soot or residue from the glass?
Wait until the glass is completely cool, then spray with standard glass cleaner or a vinegar-water solution. Wipe clean with a lint-free cloth or paper towels. For stubborn residue, use a non-abrasive glass cleaner and soft cloth.
Can I leave the wind guard outside year-round?
Yes, tempered glass is weather-resistant and can remain installed year-round. However, removing and storing it during harsh winter weather or extended periods of non-use will help maintain its clarity and extend its lifespan.
What size fire pit does this fit?
The 24-inch height is designed to fit most standard gas fire pits and fire tables. Check your fire pit's dimensions and burner configuration to ensure proper fit. The wind guard should surround the burner area completely for optimal wind protection.
Does the wind guard affect heat output?
The wind guard actually improves heat efficiency by preventing wind from dispersing warmth. You'll experience better heat retention and more consistent warmth around the fire pit, often allowing you to use lower flame settings while achieving the same comfort level.
Is the glass safe if it breaks?
Yes, tempered glass is a safety glass that, if broken, shatters into small, relatively harmless pieces rather than large dangerous shards. However, the glass is extremely durable and designed to resist breakage under normal use conditions.
