How It Works:
- Start-Up: This is done by the use of a wall switch or remote control. When the ON command is received, the system completes initial safety checks then starts the flow of pilot gas. After 5 seconds the hot surface igniter glows igniting the pilot flame. When the system confirms the pilot flame is present, the main burner gas will flow ignited by the pilot flame.
- Operation: While enjoying the ambiance of your fire pit, the system is at work monitoring flame status, internal temperatures/voltages, and other safety parameters. If flame loss does occur, the system will turn off all gas flow, and then restart by automatically commencing the Start sequence.
- On/Off Models: Includes the convenience and safety features- optional remote control available.
- Bluetooth High / Low Flame Control Models: This option includes a smart remote and App via smart device control with 2-way communication with the fire pit. Remote allows flame height control while receiving information from the fire pit to advise the user of fire pit status (flashing LED).
- Shut Down: To turn OFF the fire pit simply use a wall switch, remote control, or whole house system.
