How It’s Made

WARMING TRENDS®

We use the CROSSFIRE® Brass Burner by Warming Trends®. It’s a distinctive fire pit burner that utilizes cutting-edge technology to produce a taller, brighter, fuller flame. Leading the industry with a highly-engineered, precision product, Warming Trends® is the original and only manufacturer of the CROSSFIRE® Brass Burner. Burner options range from 64,000 to 500,000 BTUs. The flame is easily adjustable. We also use ignition systems from Warming Trends®; match lit, push button and a mercury system option.

The patented technology behind our CROSSFIRE® Brass Burner uses a specific air-to-gas ratio at the point of combustion to produce a taller, brighter, fuller flame that resembles a natural, wood burning fire. We call this the Venturi Effect. Venturi Jet Technology generates high velocity gas flow and pulls more oxygen into the jet chamber – feeding the combination into the flame at the point of combustion. This causes the gas and oxygen mixture to shoot out of the jet at a high velocity as a super-charged flame, like water out of a fire hose.  

All parts and pieces of the CROSSFIRE® Burner are made from brass. Unlike other burners made from stainless steel, brass is corrosion resistant and will not rust, which eliminates the need for replacement. We’re so confident the product will last, we offer a lifetime warranty on all brass products.

We stand behind our products and construction. Corrosion resistant, sustainable, and rust-proof, brass allows us to offer the strongest lifetime warranty in the industry.

Warming Trends® is proud to manufacture and assemble all our products in the U.S., supporting local Colorado commerce as well as parts manufacturers across the U.S. We are truly a Made in the USA product.

MATCH LIT IGNITION

All CROSSFIRE® Brass Burners come standard as a manual Match Lit System. Light a match and turn the key valve to ignite your fire feature's burner.

MERCURY IGNITION

The Mercury Ignition provides a layer of safety in the event a burner's flame is unexpectedly extinguished. This innovative new design provides a quick, automatic shutoff of gas flow and an easy reset to reignite the flame when ready.

Rob started his welding career as a hobby welder in Alaska around 1999 with a small Lincoln wire feed welder. Early projects included side racks for four wheelers and a variety of repair work for friends and family.  As he became more proficient over the years, he upgraded equipment and tackled more complex projects. This hobby was quickly becoming a "side hustle". 

THE HISTORY

Eventually, he decided some formal training would be helpful and he took several welding and metallurgy night classes at the University of Alaska Anchorage. This turned into needing some new equipment. He upgraded to a light industrial MIG welder and a large TIG welding machine. Welding aluminum was now an option which proved to be a huge boost to the business. Soon, aluminum boats were parked in the yard waiting for cranes, davits, and custom storage cabinets to be fabricated and installed. This continued until he left Alaska in 2018 for a new adventure in Arkansas.
