Description

Reflective Fire Glass Sold by the 10 lb Container, in Seven Colors

Athena reflective fire glass is 1/2 inch glass made to sit over a gas burner, in place of lava rock or logs. Each container holds 10 lbs, and each color is its own container, so you can buy one color or mix several.

How Much You Need Depends on the Burner, Not the Table

Cover the burner completely, but with no more than an inch of glass over the top. That depth is what matters: piling it deeper smothers the flame and gains you nothing. For the Athena Olympus tables, Grand Canyon specifies 20 lbs for the 60 inch rectangular tables and 30 lbs for the round and square, which is two and three containers.

Glass and Lava Rock Can Share a Burner

Athena Authorized Dealer Lava rock underneath and glass on top is a common way to stretch the glass. Use lava rock 1 to 2 inches across and rinse the dust off first. Cannon balls and logs can sit on top as accents.

Best for Gas Fire Pits and Outdoor Fire Features

Grand Canyon makes it for fire pits and other outdoor fire features. For an indoor gas fireplace, use the media that fireplace's manufacturer specifies.

Let It Dry Before You Light It

Wet glass can crack. Moisture trapped in any fire media can expand fast when it heats up, which can make a piece pop. After rain, let the bed dry before lighting.
Do not touch it while the fire is on, or right after. The glass gets hot.
Leave the pilot uncovered on burners that have one, so it can breathe.

Athena 1/2" Reflective Fire Glass for Gas Fire Pits and Fire Features, 10 lb FAQ's

How much fire glass do I need?

Enough to cover the burner with no more than an inch of glass over the top. For the Athena Olympus tables that is 20 lbs on the 60 inch rectangles and 30 lbs on the round and square.

Should fire glass cover the burner?

Yes, completely, but not deeply. Grand Canyon's limit is 1 inch over the top of the burner; more than that chokes the flame.

Can you mix lava rock and glass in a fire pit?

Yes. Lava rock 1 to 2 inches across makes a good base, with glass on top. Rinse the lava rock first so its dust does not clog the burner pan.

Does fire glass burn?

Fire glass made for gas burners does not burn. It can crack if it is wet when you light it, because trapped moisture expands as it heats. Let it dry first.

Is fire glass hot to touch?

Yes. Grand Canyon warns not to touch the glass while it is in a lit fire pit, because it gets hot. Let it cool completely before handling it.

How deep should fire glass be?

Just deep enough to bury the burner. Grand Canyon's limit is 1 inch of glass over the top of the burner, so the bed is the burner's height plus up to an inch.
