The Rectangular Flat Fire Pit Kit with Electronic Ignition by The Outdoor Plus (TOP) is designed to create a broader, evenly distributed flame pattern, making it well-suited to wider fire pit designs where a fuller visual presence is preferred. Within the TOP range, this rectangular configuration features an aluminum pan paired with an H-style bullet burner, producing distinct jets of flame for a more defined and visually structured flame pattern compared to traditional burner designs.
The flat pan design is suited to installations where a fully integrated, minimal appearance is required. With no visible lip or edge, the pan is supported below the finished surface of the fire pit, allowing the burner and pan to be concealed once the fire media is in place. This approach requires built-in support within the structure, making it best suited to more considered or custom builds where a clean, uninterrupted finish is the priority.
Configured for electronic ignition, this kit provides consistent and dependable lighting, along with built-in safety features that monitor flame presence and automatically shut off the gas supply if the flame is lost. Electronic ignition offers a high level of control and flexibility, from simple wall switches or timers to integration with pool controllers, smart home systems, or optional remote and Wi-Fi controls. A choice of burner configurations, sizes, voltage options, and fuel types allows the system to be tailored to suit different project requirements while maintaining a consistent rectangular flame presentation.
Options
Select Size
There are 7 sizes available. The length increases while the width remains a constant 12 inches regardless of overall length.
Select Gas Type
Available for Natural Gas and Propane. Ensure the correct gas type is selected, as systems are not interchangeable.
Select Ignition
Electronic Ignition – Low Voltage (CSA Certified)
Low-voltage electronic ignition systems are suitable for fire features near water and are commonly used in poolside installations. The system will automatically relight if the flame is extinguished.
These systems can be connected to a wall switch, timer, remote control, pool controller, or smart home system. Remote control upgrades are available.
Electronic Ignition – Plug & play (CSA Certified)
Standard voltage (110V) electronic ignition systems are suitable for installations where mains power is available, but are not intended for use near water.
The system features flame sensing and will automatically attempt to relight if the flame is extinguished.
These systems can be connected to a standard wall switch, timer, emergency stop, or smart home system. Remote control upgrades are available.
Product Specification
The pan is made from aluminum with an H-burner manufactured from .304 Stainless Steel.
The H-burners of the 72″, 84″, and 96″ length pans have an additional crossbar(H) with a gas inlet for proper gas distribution.
As the length of the fire pit pan increases, the burner length and BTU output increase accordingly to maintain consistent flame performance across sizes.

Installation Considerations
For outdoor use only.
Electronic ignition systems require a minimum of 10″ clearance below the pan. With a manifold, this increases to 15″.
A gas shut-off valve must be installed externally for emergency and maintenance access. A gas key valve is recommended to allow manual flame control.
Proper ventilation of the fire pit enclosure is essential for cooling and venting residual gas. A minimum of two vents on opposing sides is required, each with at least 18 sq. inches of free air space.
Adequate drainage must be provided to prevent water accumulation within the enclosure.
