The Outdoor Plus Del Mar 96" GFRC Concrete Fire Pit

A fire feature can look like an add-on or like it was always part of the design. The Outdoor Plus Del Mar 96" is firmly the latter — a long, low, rectangular GFRC concrete fire pit with the clean silhouette of high-end architectural hardscape rather than a bulky bolt-on. Hand-poured and finished in the USA, the Del Mar pairs the cast-stone look of concrete with real weather resistance. At 96 inches it is built for a full seating group — a full outdoor living room, ten or more people — rather than a two-chair corner. Choose from 18 concrete finishes, five ignition systems, and either natural gas or liquid propane. Why the 96" Del Mar Sized for a real seating group, not a corner The 96" measures 96" L x 28" W x 15" H, with a 80" x 12" burning area running the length of the opening. That length is what lets a full sofa-and-chairs arrangement face the flame instead of crowding one end of it. If your seating plan is smaller, the 48", 60", 72" or 84" Del Mar will suit you better and cost less. 215,000 BTU across the whole length The burner is matched to the body, so the flame runs the length of the opening rather than sitting as a small pool in a large table. Suggested fire glass fill is 101 lbs if you upgrade from the included lava rock. GFRC concrete, not ordinary cast concrete Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete is meaningfully stronger and more weather-resistant than standard cast concrete, so the refined look holds up to real outdoor exposure instead of cracking or degrading after a season or two. Because each unit is hand-poured, subtle variation in color and texture is normal and expected — that is the material, not a flaw. Choosing Your Options Natural gas or liquid propane Natural gas runs off a plumbed line and never needs refilling, which is the better answer if you already have a gas stub or are willing to have one run. Liquid propane runs off a tank, which means no plumbing but a tank to swap and somewhere to hide it. Pick the one that matches your property — the burner is configured for your choice at the factory and cannot be swapped later. The five ignition systems, in plain English Match Lit — the simplest and least expensive. You turn a key valve and light it yourself. No power needed. Match Lit with Flame Sense — the same, plus a sensor that shuts the gas off if the flame blows out. Flame Sense with Spark — adds a push-button spark so you are not holding a lighter over the burner. Low Voltage Electronic (CSA certified) — on and off from a remote or a wall switch. Needs a transformer and a power source nearby. Plug and Play (CSA certified) — the same convenience, wired to plug into a standard outlet. The easiest of the electronic options to install. If an inspector or local code is involved, the CSA-certified options are the ones with documentation on file.

Where this sits in the range The ignition and fuel options are explained above. If you are choosing between sizes — or between the Del Mar and the Coronado XL at this scale — The Outdoor Plus ignition, fuel and finish guide compares them on seating, footprint and delivery. Worth knowing before you order at this size: check the delivery notes below, and add a glass wind guard if the spot is open to wind. Call or text 1 800 914 0074 or 352 274 6387 and we will walk the site through with you. Delivery & Installation Built to order, ships in 3–4 weeks. Your fire pit is built for your order — your finish, your ignition, your fuel type — so it isn't pulled off a shelf. Production runs about 3 to 4 weeks, then it goes out on a freight truck. Figure four to six weeks from your order to your patio. Please read before ordering: this size needs a forklift. At this length the crate ships back of truck. The driver cannot unload it for you — there is no liftgate on this size, and the crate is too heavy and too long to hand down. You will need a forklift or a tractor with forks at the delivery address on the day. If you do not have access to one, call us on 1-800-914-0074 before you order and we will work out another way. It costs a lot less to sort this out now than to turn a truck away. Professional installation. As a gas fire feature, the Del Mar should follow all clearances and local codes for your selected fuel type, and professional installation is recommended. If you don't have a preferred installer, contact us and we can point you toward qualified professional installation for your setup. Built for you, so please double-check your choices. Because each unit is made to your specification, we can't return or exchange it once it goes into production. Take a minute over the finish, the ignition and whether you're on natural gas or propane.
