Question 1

What is Surround Extend made of?

Accepted Answer

Surround’s frame and table top shelves are constructed with a durable powder-coated steel. The powder-coated finish is very durable, but it can be scratched. To avoid damaging the surface do not drag items across the shelves. Do not sit, stand, or lean on Surround Extend. Excessive weight can cause damage to the tabletop.

Question 2

Will the Surround Extend’s tabletop surface get hot while I have a fire going?

Accepted Answer

The Surround’s table top is made with perforated steel that helps minimize the heat transfer from your fire pit to Surround. Perforations decrease the heat absorption of the metal, but do not eliminate it entirely. In certain conditions Surround shelves might be warm to the touch and the Surround bezel, located closer to the fire, will absorb more heat than the tabletop and could get hot.

Question 3

Can I use my fire pit accessories with Surround?

Accepted Answer

Absolutely! Surround and the Surround Extend are meant to enhance the safety of your fire pit but also enable you to use the accessories you already have. Enjoy the Fire Pit Cooking System, Shield, and Roasting sticks whenever you’re sitting around the fire. If you use Deflector, only use the longer legs, and proceed with caution as it will raise the temperature of the tabletop surface on your Surround Extend. NOTE: The Fire Pit Stand should NOT be used with Surround.

Question 4

Do I need a Surround before I can purchase the Surround Extend?

Accepted Answer

Yes, the Surround Extend is only usable if it is attached to a Fire Pit Surround. All hardware and tools needed for assembly are included.

Question 5

Can I use Surround Extend on a deck?

Accepted Answer

Solo Stove Fire Pits can safely be used in Surround on a deck, but requires your attention and action. Surround Extend will elevate your fire pit off of wooden/composite deck surfaces that will help minimize heat underneath the fire pit and help avoid charring or ignition.

Question 6

How long does it take to assemble?

Accepted Answer

Assembly takes approximately 20 minutes (it helps if you have a partner to assist).

Question 7

Does Surround fit all fire pit sizes?

Accepted Answer

Surround is available in 2 sizes: small and large. The small size will accommodate both Bonfire and Ranger fire pits, while the large size will accommodate both the Yukon and Canyon*. 
 *Canyon (Yukon 30”) fire pits are sold exclusively in retail locations.

Question 8

Is Surround weatherproof?

Accepted Answer

While Surround’s powder-coated exterior is extremely durable and UV-resistant, you should keep it from sitting in standing water or being covered in snow/ice for prolonged periods. A Solo Stove Surround Shelter is suggested to protect the surfaces whenever Surround is not in use.

Question 9

How do I remove my fire pit from Surround?

Accepted Answer

When attempting to remove your fire pit from the Surround, ensure that your fire pit is completely cool. Remove the Surround Bezel, then proceed to remove the fire pit. We recommend using 2 persons to remove your fire pit from Surround. Solo Stove Handle is a great tool for the job.

Question 10

What size is the Canyon fire pit?

Accepted Answer

Canyon is our largest fire pit, sporting a 27.25” interior diameter, and is sold exclusively through select retail partners. Canyon was formerly named “Yukon 30”” but has been brought back under a new name.
