  • Publication number: 20240369218
    Abstract: A firepit may include an aluminum top that may be mounted to a molded base where the top may be movable relative to the molded base to allow access to the propane tank stored within the base as well as provide access to other components of the firepit. The movable top may rotate or swivel about a pivot point to move the top away from the base to thereby allow access to the propane tank and other components without having to remove the heat conducting medium, the gas ring, the screen or cover, or any other components of the firepit that supply or provide the flames for the firepit.
