The Fire by Design Legacy Square Fire Pit is a GFRC square-format fire pit with a wide tabletop ledge — available in 42"×42" and 48"×48". Engineered for permanent outdoor installation with the AWEIS electronic ignition system, it delivers 85,000 BTU/hr and is designed for use with fire glass or lava rock media. Why the Fire by Design Legacy Square Fire Pit is Different The Legacy Square combines fire pit and low table function — the wide tapered sides create a usable ledge surface around the fire bowl. Shell construction is GFRC (Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete) — structurally strong at reduced weight compared to poured concrete, rated for permanent exterior installation. The AWEIS ignition system is Fire by Design's commercial-grade pilot, field-tested in rain and high-wind environments. Available in 19 hand-cast GFRC colors with smooth and textured finishes. Features GFRC Construction: Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete — high strength, weather-resistant, rated for permanent exterior use. AWEIS Ignition: All-Weather Electronic Ignition System (24VAC) — commercial-grade pilot rated for rain and 55 mph winds. Integrated Tabletop Surface: Tapered sides create a 7.5" (42") or 10.5" (48") ledge around the fire bowl. 12" Fire Ring Burner: Flat burner pan with 12" ring for even flame distribution. 24V Transformer Included: Requires a 120VAC outdoor GFCI outlet. Thermopile Safety Sensor: Auto-shutoff if pilot extinguishes. Propane Air Mixer: LP units include air mixer and backup safety valve. 19 GFRC Color Options: Hand-cast in 19 colors, smooth and textured finishes.

The 42" weighs 350 lbs; the 48" weighs 500 lbs. Both require a liftgate at delivery. Inspect packaging before signing — document any damage with photos. Curbside delivery; installation crew will need to move the piece to final position. Installation Gas connections require a licensed plumber or gas fitter. AWEIS ignition requires a 120VAC outdoor GFCI outlet for the 24V transformer. Install on a non-combustible, level surface — concrete pad, pavers, or stone. Minimum 36" clearance from combustible structures recommended; verify local codes. Complete Your Setup Complete the build with fire glass or lava rock media, a fitted fire pit cover, and a wind guard for exposed patio settings. Frequently Asked Questions What's the difference between the 42" and 48" Legacy Square?Both run 85,000 BTU/hr. The 48" adds 150 lbs and a wider 10.5" tabletop ledge vs. 7.5" on the 42". For larger seating groups or bigger patios, the 48" provides a more proportional scale. Can this be used as a table when the fire isn't running?Yes — the tapered sides and flat ledge function as a low side table. The 48" provides a 10.5" surface width. Not designed for food prep or sustained heavy loads. NG vs. Propane — what's the difference?NG runs off a dedicated gas line at lower ongoing fuel cost. LP requires a tank with periodic refills. LP units include an air mixer and backup safety valve. The two SKUs are not interchangeable in the field. What's included in the kit?Fire pit body, AWEIS ignition, 24V transformer, 12" fire ring burner, and flat burner pan. Fire glass is sold separately. What's the lead time?6–8 weeks from order. Fire by Design builds to order — confirm color selection at time of purchase. Does this require a licensed contractor for installation?Yes for the gas connection. The 24V transformer is plug-in. A GFCI outdoor outlet must be present within transformer cord reach. Browse More Fire by Design See the full Fire by Design collection or browse all outdoor fire pits.
