WHY PROPANE FIRE TABLES?
Without question, many homeowners prefer the simple fact that propane fire tables do not produce smoke like traditional wood-burning pits. The smokeless feature makes propane a preferred choice among homeowners. Our fire tables have a simple on-and-off mechanism that provides a beautiful, controllable flame. You select the size of flames you want throughout the evening. Having a fire table as the centerpiece for your backyard encourages cozy conversations and becomes a warm place to gather during the cooler months. Even in milder climates, an outdoor fire pit table gets a lot of use and can quickly become a favorite spot with your family and friends.
While some wood-burning fire pits can be smokeless, propane fire pits offer additional features that make them the preferred choice for those looking to brighten their backyard. Propane tanks can be purchased at hardware stores and gas stations. A single tank will last for about eight hours.
COMPATIBILITY WITH HOOKING UP WITH PROPANE OR NATURAL GAS
Don’t like the idea of having to refill a propane tank? With most of our fire pit tables, you can connect your table to a natural gas line. You must have a natural gas line available for this conversion option to work, and the conversion should be done by a certified plumber.
While propane fire tables can be more efficient than natural gas, there are some advantages to choosing the natural gas option. One of those advantages is that natural gas fire tables always have fuel. This is not always the case with propane, which, when it runs out, requires you to refill the tank—although most propane fire table owners keep an extra tank filled and ready.
If your home already has a natural gas line, the conversion option can be fairly inexpensive to install and run. However, if you need to have a natural gas line installed in your yard, you'll need to calculate the cost into your decision to switch from propane to gas.
WHAT IS SMOKELESS?
Smokeless simply means that a wood fire pit produces little to no smoke. Having a smokeless fire pit option has recently become a popular choice for those who want to enjoy the warmth, but avoid the smoke. You can buy smokeless fire starters.
However, due to air-quality concerns, some communities have “no burn days” which means a wood-burning fire pit is not allowed. Phoenix is one of these cities. “No burning” regulations do not apply to propane and natural gas fire pit tables, which makes them more desirable.

PROPANE FIRE PIT SIZE & PORTABILITY
Most propane fire pits are substantial in size and can appear as a built-in feature even if they are freestanding. At Paddy O’ Furniture, we have fire pit coffee tables, balcony-height tables, and dining tables.
When designing an outdoor space, a fire pit table is often the focal point or starting point given its larger size and how it leads to seating configurations. Even though propane fire tables can be large, they are portable, which means you could move it around if you want a new outdoor look.
The materials used on most propane fire tables are lightweight, but give the appearance of being heavy. For example, this all-aluminum fire pit uses a material that looks like heavy concrete, but is easy to move without compromising on style or durability.
The size and portability of a propane fire pit make it a versatile choice for those looking to ignite some warmth and elegance to their outdoors. Our Bliss Fire Tables feature a durable, sintered tabletop that is resistant to scratches, stains, fading, heat and flames, and other abrasions. Bliss tabletops will not degrade or discolor over time.
PROPANE FIRE PIT DESIGN & FEATURES
An attractive feature with propane fire tables is the ability to switch out the decorative fire glass (the glass inside with the flame). You can modify the colors, sizes, and types of rock or glass you use to complement your setting. Fire glass can change with the seasons. Most propane fire tables offer room around the perimeter of the fire to be used for entertaining and dining. Check out our selection at Paddy O’ Furniture here.
Our propane fire pit tables are designed in different shapes and heights. Square, rectangular, and circular styles are available, with round and rectangular fire pits available in conversation, dining, and balcony heights.
CONVENIENT DINING FEATURES
A dining fire table gives guests a place to set their drinks or snacks while they enjoy the flames and conversation. Selecting comfortable seating around the fire enhances the evening.
Convenient features and options are reasons that make our propane fire pit tables a popular choice when transforming a backyard.
