Fire Pit Ignition Systems

Enjoy convenient, dependable operation from a properly specified gas fire feature with fire pit ignition systems from The Outdoor Plus. Designed for compatible outdoor gas-burning installations, these systems provide different ways to ignite and control a fire pit, depending on the selected configuration. The right ignition system can make operating an outdoor fire feature more convenient while complementing the overall design and intended use of the installation.

The Outdoor Plus offers several ignition approaches across its range, including match-lit systems, push-button spark ignition, electronic ignition, low-voltage systems, and plug-and-play configurations. Certain systems also incorporate flame-sensing technology. Availability, control features, electrical requirements, and compatibility vary by model. These different approaches offer flexibility when planning a fire feature, whether the priority is straightforward manual operation or a more integrated ignition and control setup.

Choosing an ignition system requires careful consideration of the complete burner assembly. A system that works with one burner or gas configuration may not be suitable for another. The correct selection depends on the burner, fuel type, gas valve and controls, power supply, and installation environment. Considering these requirements early in the planning process can help avoid compatibility issues and ensure the selected components are appropriate for the intended application.

How to Choose a Fire Pit Ignition System

  • Ignition method: Compare the available manual, push-button, and electronic ignition options.

  • Power requirements: Check whether the selected system requires no external electrical supply, low-voltage power, or a standard electrical connection.

  • Burner compatibility: Verify that the ignition system is approved or specified for your particular burner assembly.

  • Fuel and gas controls: Confirm compatibility with the fuel type, valve arrangement, and other gas components.

  • Safety features: Review the model's flame-sensing, ignition-control, and shutdown features where applicable.

  • Installation environment: Follow the manufacturer's requirements for ventilation, electrical connections, clearances, and weather protection.

Not every ignition system is a standalone replacement component, and not every system is interchangeable with an existing burner. Some configurations may require specific valves, control components, wiring, or other accessories to operate as intended. Before purchasing, review the product specifications and installation manual to confirm the complete set of required components.

Whether you're planning a new custom gas fire feature or selecting a compatible ignition system for an existing installation, checking the technical requirements is an important step toward a suitable setup. Gas and electrical connections should be installed and tested by appropriately qualified professionals in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions and applicable local codes.
