2” Installation Guide First we would like to thank you for choosing Aquatic Glassel fireplace glass and now for the good stuff. Clean your fireplace and wire brush if needed to remove any soot build up. Wipe the surfaces clean with a dry cloth to remove any dust. If you are painting mask off the areas you don’t want any paint on. Spray your paint and remove the masking

Now you want to hook up your burner and place it in the center of the fireplace. Turn the gas on and light it to check that you have the flame pattern in the center and going up and not lapping on the back wall. This will cause soot and look like do-do. Now you have found the general location for the burner. Pour in about 2” (you can use as much as you want) of crushed lava rock and maintain about 3” to 4” from the front of the fireplace. Keep the front clear of lava rock and sand, as we don’t want it to show through. 

Pull the burner to the top and light it again to insure the pattern has not changed. Now cover the burner and lava rock with sand, brush the burner of any sand and light it again. Checking for the flame pattern again. Looks good? Now you're ready to pour the glass on the lava rock and sand base. Starting from the front to back to keep the lava rock from mixing in the glass. Now you’re done unless you are topping off with another color. We recommend you do this slowly as it looks better if you take your time. We also have found that if you do this at nighttime it makes more sense as you can see the actual effects of the fire and the toppings.

In the event you want to remove the topping at a later time, use a shop vacuum to remove the top layer. We put tape on the end to make the hole smaller as not to suck up the complete fireplace of glass. Save this glass you just removed for use later in time. Now you can re-decorate with a few pounds of another color to change the entire look of your fireplace.

EXAMPLE #9 An Outdoor Fire Pit Converted to a Fire Glass Fire pit.


The pictures below are of a self install with 1/2" to 3/4" of crushed lava rock and a Clear Base Glass is used at the bottom of the burner ring. 

lava rock fire pit with fire pit ring


Step 1 - If you want a higher center then pour a little more filler on top of the ring. 

adding lava rock 

Step 2 - Now we will pour the crushed lava rock (1/4" to 3/8") over the filler as this will stop the glass from falling through the lava rock.

Step 3 - Finish shaping and pour the glass.

Step 4 - This is a 36" fire pit which requires 56 lbs for a 1" cover and 80 lbs for a 1 1/2" cover. Which as you can see works just fine. you can't see though the glass.

Step 5 - The last step will be to add color Toppers which we should post in a few days and night time pictures with the fire on.

Here we are showing you how to properly install a fire pit using fireglass. We recommend starting with less and then you can always add more if you need to. As you can see we had our customer do the 1” method and it looks just fine. But keep in mind the less glass over the crushed lava rock - the more likely someone can disturb the top layer and then the lava rock could show through.

Don’t be fooled by someone trying to get you to purchase more than you actually need. We recommend using a 1”, 1½” or even the 2” method. Give us a call and we can help guide you in the right direction.

 

Another Step by Step Home Fireplace Installation

The pictures show how to install FireGlass to your existing brick fireplace.  Again we recommend using two inches of FireGlass atop the crushed lava rock.  This particular fireplace used Starfire Base Glass FireGlass and some black stove paint.  The whole process after painting the fireplace took only 30 minutes.

Step 1 - Install the burner and test the flame pattern. 

test flame from burner 


Step 2 - Test the flame on high and low to insure the flame goes straight up and does not hit the walls. 

After masking and painting we turned the flame on low to heat the paint to dry it quicker.

Step 3 - Turn the light down low to see the flame pattern as you will have the light down low with your evening fire. The pipe burners can be adjusted to the desired effect.

Step 4 - Below the lava rock goes in and then we test the flame pattern once again.

It's hard to see but we did install Ice Ice Ice Topper on top of the Starfire Base Glass. If you noticed, we had to pile a small mound in the front to cover the massive pipe connection. Did you even notice it in the first few pictures?
