Yes, the Avalon Fire Bowl is designed for outdoor use and can be placed on a deck. However, ensure the surface is level and non-combustible, or use a heat-resistant pad underneath to protect your decking material from the heat generated by the base.

The unit is compatible with both natural gas and propane, but you must specify your fuel type at the time of purchase so the burner is configured correctly. Professional installation by a licensed plumber or gas technician is highly recommended to ensure safe and proper connection.

Absolutely. While lava rocks are included, you can use fire glass instead for a more modern aesthetic. Just ensure you use fire-rated glass specifically designed for gas fire pits to prevent cracking or popping under high heat.

The burner provides a consistent 65,000 BTUs of heat. This output is sufficient to provide a comfortable warmth for people seated around the bowl, though it is intended primarily as an ambient feature rather than a primary heating source for a large area.
