Fire Pits, Kadai's & Outdoor Heating FAQs 

Read our FAQs below and make sure all your basis are covered:

1. How do I set a traditional fire pit alight?

Create a base of newspaper, topped with a lattice of kindling and perhaps a few firelighters for good measure. You can then balance a few small logs over the top, before setting the newspaper alight. As the fire catches, you can begin to stack larger logs around the fire, making sure you don’t block the flow of oxygen. If the fire blooms larger than you’d like, wait for it to use the fuel you’ve already provided before topping it up with more as the day wears on.

2. What are the advantages of a gas fire pit?

Practically speaking they're easier to use, as you don’t have to clean the fire pit after use. It’s easier to control too, thanks to an inbuilt flame gauge. You won’t have to top up fuel every hour or so, and there isn’t any smoke or stray embers to worry about.

3. Can I cook on the fire pit?

Yes, many firepits are designed for cooking on. Cuckooland does have a varied range of cooking implements which can be used with a firepit. Most of our gas variants arrive with a grill cover and accompanying stand. The traditional sort can be turned into a mega-size BBQ, but if you do, we strongly recommend using charcoal as the fuel source, as a wood-based fire will be tough to control.

4. How should I clean and maintain my fire pit?

Wait for the ash/embers to cool – ideally overnight. Once they’ve cooled, scoop them out with a bucket and spade, brushing away excess soot, then gently hose the pit. Afterwards, scrub the sides with a soap and water mix, then turn it upside down to dry. Please bear in mind that gas-powered pits only require a brief, damp wipe around the rim and the burner, but you should cover them up when they’re out-of-action, protecting the gas points from rain and debris.
