American Fyre Designs Wave Gas Fire Urn

Overall Dimensions: 20 in. diameter x 37-1/2 in. H; 120 lbs (AFD manual, Wave Urn 530)

The American Fyre Designs Wave fire urn is a tall, sculpted column of Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete with a fire bowl at the top. A 12 in. stainless steel star burner rated 60,000 BTU on natural gas sends up a steady flame at standing height, so it works as a focal point at an entry, on a pool deck or beside a seating group.

It is offered in Smoke, Cafe Blanco and Black Lava finishes and installs on any hard, level surface, combustible decking included, with match lighting and a manual gas valve, so no electrical connection is needed.

What Is Included and What You Will Need

• Included: Wave GFRC urn, 12 in. stainless steel star burner and round burner plate, natural gas orifice, gas valve, pressure regulator and flex connector, per the AFD replacement parts list
• Required, sold separately: primary media, either about 15 lbs of lava granules or about 20 lbs of fire glass, per the AFD manual; for example the AFD Fyre Glass 40 lb bucket or AFD Reflective Fyre Glass 40 lb bucket
• Optional: secondary media such as volcanic stones (use VS-12, 12 lbs), river stones or glass nuggets placed over the primary layer

Installation Notes

Keep 3 ft of side clearance and 6 ft above the urn to any construction, set it on a hard, level surface, and do not operate it in high wind, per the AFD manual. The gas line must deliver 5 to 10.5 in. W.C. natural gas, and a qualified professional must make the connection for the warranty to apply. Use only the AFD-approved media amounts; burning wood or other fuels voids the warranty. For New York City addresses, outdoor gas fire features and their gas piping fall under the NYC Fuel Gas Code and Department of Buildings permitting, so the approval path must be confirmed before you buy. Book a design consultation and we will plan placement, clearances and the gas run.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is fire glass or lava included?

No. AFD packages media separately. The Wave needs about 15 lbs of lava granules or about 20 lbs of fire glass as the primary layer.

Can it sit on a wood deck?

Yes. The manual allows combustible floors under the urn, with 0 in. clearance below, as long as the surface is hard and level and the 3 ft side and 6 ft overhead clearances are kept.

Can I convert it to propane?

The manual states models without doors are not convertible, so order the fuel you will use.

Can I install this in New York City?

Possibly, but outdoor gas fire features and their gas piping need NYC Fuel Gas Code and Department of Buildings approval. Talk to us before you order.
