Wood burning fire is directly affected by the type of wood that is burning and the state of the wood burning. Wood that is moist with sap will pop and spit just as very green wood will create a lot of smoke. Fire house fire pits are designed to surround the fire with a fire screen to minimize the danger of a spark or hot sap being emitted from the fire pit. The fire house designs are also made to pull the fumes and the smoke upwards so the fire pit places less smoke in the surrounding area where guests are likely to be sitting. This fire pit has a specific opening as a double sided viewing area and the chimney is much more engineered to pull fumes away from the viewable areas. Guests are less likely to be affected by fumes or smoke with this fire pit design and more likely to enjoy the heat that will be focused to the openings instead of 360 degrees around.

Propane fireplaces and fire pits always have to have a pilot kit with a thermocouple and safety valve that is capable of automatically turning off the gas flow if the flames are out.
Ring burners can be wide open inside but we get better flame patterns using multiple rings in the same burner. The biggest mistake people make is not getting a small enough burner. When the burner is too big the outer structure can be easily discolored and damaged.
This is a custom fire pit built in Florida that we created using a RealFyre fite pit kit. The kit came with the control valve, ignition, pilot assembly, thermocouple and the burner with thre burner pan. These kits make it easier to build a safe custom fire pit because all the gas line safety features are already assembled. All we have to do is build a safe structure in accord with local laws -- and make it look awesome!
