Instructions for use:
Upon receiving your bag of premium lava rock, we recommend tearing from the side towards the top of
the bag or cutting the top with scissors. Since the pebbles are gathered from the lava fields and tumbled
to create a consistent shape and size there may be some additional dust in the bag. Take a large bucket
and pour the contents into the bucket. Rinse off the lava rock to remove unwanted dust created during
shipping. Empty contents of the bucket on a towel and allow a few hours to dry.
Now that your lava rock is clean, you are ready to prepare your fire pit. Lava pebbles can be used in
natural gas or propane fire applications and unlike other lava rock or cinder rock on the market, lava
pebbles will not crumble or break down in size It is our suggestion for the most unique look to use lava
pebbles for use in propane or natural-gas fire pits. We suggest an inch layer of sand or pea gravel on the
bottom of the fire pit for a sturdy foundation. Next, take your lava rocks and place around the fire pit
and burner so it fills just enough rock to cover the burner. You are now ready to lite your firepit.
