The Outdoor Plus Newport GFRC 144" Fire Table — Black | Plug & Play Electronic Ignition with Dial Timer Panel
Overview
The Newport GFRC Fire Table is The Outdoor Plus's flagship rectangular fire table — a commanding 144-inch centerpiece handcrafted in the USA from proprietary Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete (GFRC). Stronger and up to 50% lighter than conventional precast concrete, GFRC resists freeze-thaw cycles, coastal salt air, and UV exposure while retaining its rich Black smooth-concrete finish indefinitely, since the color is cast throughout — it cannot chip or peel. At 160,000 BTUs through a 96-inch 304 stainless steel burner, the Newport delivers a breathtaking wall of flame across a 102-inch burning area, making it an ideal anchor for large-scale residential terraces or commercial hospitality installations.
This configuration pairs the CSA-Certified 110V Plug & Play Electronic Ignition System with the factory-installed Dial Timer Panel (–DTMP), which mounts a brushed stainless steel control panel directly to the fire table housing. The panel integrates a 110V Dial Timer, key valve, key, and stainless steel gas lines — enabling precise timed operation and a clean, finished look without exposed wiring. The Smart Weather Electronic Ignition System (SWEIS) automatically re-ignites the flame if blown out by wind (tested to 55 mph) and shuts off automatically in severe rain or wind conditions for peace of mind. Lava rock media is included; upgrading to fire glass (175 lbs recommended, sold separately) intensifies the visual effect.

What Our Customers Say
Frequently asked questions
Wood, gas, or propane — which fire pit is right for me?
Wood-burning fire pits give the most authentic crackle and smoke smell — but require seasoned firewood and produce ash. Natural gas fire pits run from a fixed gas line for unlimited burn time, instant on/off, no ash — require a gas plumber for install. Propane (LP) fire pits use a refillable tank, fully portable, also instant on/off — tank lasts roughly 8–14 hours on average use.
Where can I install a fire pit?
Most fire pits are designed for outdoor use only — on a non-combustible surface (stone patio, concrete, gravel, or fire-rated paver). Maintain at least 10 feet of clearance from buildings, fences, overhangs, and combustible vegetation. Check local fire ordinances; some HOAs and municipalities restrict open flame outdoors. Never use indoors — CO and combustion byproducts make this unsafe.
Can I use a fire pit on my wood deck?
Only with a fire-rated heat shield mat underneath and a unit specifically rated for deck use. Many wood-burning pits should not be used on wood decks at all due to ember escape risk. Gas and propane pits with sealed bottoms and proper heat shields are safer for decks — but always check the manufacturer's clearance requirements and your local code.
How long does a propane tank last?
A standard 20 lb propane tank typically powers a fire pit for 8–14 hours at full output, depending on the BTU rating of the burner. At lower flame settings, you can stretch this to 16+ hours. To extend tank life: lower the flame, use a wind guard to reduce gas waste, and turn off when not actively in use.
Free shipping and warranty?
Free freight shipping on all fire pits within the contiguous US. Most fire pits carry a 1–5 year manufacturer warranty (varies by model — full warranty terms on each product page). 30-day return window on unused units. White-glove delivery on heavier models.
