Jatex Domed Mesh Fire Pit Covers Frequently Asked Questions
What sizes are available for the Jatex Domed Mesh Fire Pit Cover?
The cover is available in two diameter options: 27″ and 30″.
What purpose does this domed mesh cover serve on a fire pit?
This domed mesh cover is designed to help contain embers and sparks from a wood fire pit, while still allowing air circulation and full view of the fire. It enhances safety and protects surrounding surfaces or adjacent furnishings from flying embers.
What material and design features does the cover have?
The cover is built with a mesh wire screen over a domed frame (metal construction) that rests over the fire pit bowl. The domed shape allows more clearance for logs and flames while the mesh helps keep embers inside the fire feature.
How do I know if the cover will fit my fire pit?
Measure the top diameter of your fire pit bowl (the inner edge where the cover will rest). Choose the cover diameter that is equal to or slightly larger than that measurement. Ensure the domed height allows clearance for flames and fuel. Jatex lists a 27″ or 30″ diameter option.
Can the cover be used outdoors year-round and how should it be cared for?
Yes, these covers are intended for outdoor use. To maintain them, regularly remove ashes and debris, brush off soot from the mesh, and if the metal begins to show surface rust (depending on finish) apply a high-temperature outdoor paint or sealant. Covering the pit when not in use and storing the mesh cover in a dry location during off-season also helps preserve lifespan.
