The Catalina GFRC Woodgrain Fire Pit by The Outdoor Plus pairs a rectangular concrete body with a woodgrain finish and an elongated burning area. Seven lengths from 48 to 120 inches let you scale the fire feature to your furniture arrangement without increasing its 28-inch width.
Its 24-inch height is an important part of the choice. The Catalina sits higher than a low fire bowl or coffee-table-height fire pit, so compare it with your seat cushions and the view between facing seats. A shorter model can anchor a compact lounge group, while the longer versions extend the fire across a more expansive seating arrangement.
Design & Construction
The Catalina is handcrafted in the USA from glass fiber reinforced concrete, or GFRC. Glass fibers reinforce the concrete body, while the woodgrain texture offers an alternative to a smooth finish. It brings a wood-inspired surface into the design without adding another timber furnishing.
Choose Oak to complement a wood-inspired palette, Ivory for a lighter finish or Ebony for darker contrast with paving and upholstery. Alongside wood furniture or decking, a contrasting finish can be easier to coordinate than trying to match two different grain patterns.
Slight variations in color and texture are part of the handmade finish. A physical sample is useful when coordinating with existing materials, since screen images may not show the color accurately.
Sizes & Specifications
All seven sizes measure 28 inches wide and 24 inches high. Each 12-inch increase in overall length adds 12 inches to the listed burning-area length, while the opening remains 10 inches wide. Moving up a size therefore extends the burning area rather than simply adding more concrete around the same opening.

Fire-glass quantities are suggested ordering amounts. Follow the instructions for your selected burner and ignition system when determining media depth and placement. Listed BTU ratings describe burner input, not a guaranteed heating area.
Ignition & Fuel Options
Choose a natural gas or liquid propane configuration to match your planned gas supply. The larger models have substantially higher listed gas inputs, so have your installer check supply capacity and gas-line sizing rather than assuming an existing patio connection will be sufficient.
Six ignition options are available:
- Match Lit: Light the burner manually without an electrical connection.
- Match Lit - Flame Sense [LC Certified]: Manual lighting with flame monitoring that shuts off the gas if the flame goes out.
- Low Voltage Electronic [CSA Certified]: Electronic ignition for installations with a suitable low-voltage power supply.
- Plug & Play Electronic [CSA Certified]: Electronic ignition that connects to a suitable electrical outlet.
- Spark Glow: Battery-powered spark ignition eliminates the need to light the burner with a separate lighter.
- Fire Glow: Battery-powered spark ignition with thermocouple-based flame monitoring and automatic gas shutoff.
Review the ignition choice with your installer before finalizing power connections and control access. For propane installations, confirm the approved tank arrangement for the selected configuration before planning the gas-line route.
In a shared or staffed lounge, consider the operating routine as well as the ignition method. Controls should remain accessible after furniture is in place, with a clear procedure for starting and shutting down the fire pit.
Decorative Media & Accessories
The Catalina includes a fire pan, burner, selected ignition system and lava rock. Optional fire glass changes the color and texture of the burner bed. On longer models, the media forms an extended band through the seating area, so consider its appearance with both the woodgrain finish and nearby upholstery.
Optional accessories include a Bullet Burner upgrade, glass wind guard, stainless steel burner lid and fitted canvas cover. Each Catalina length has its own catalog-listed accessories. Select them by model size rather than estimating fit from the overall body or burning-area dimensions.
Let the unit cool completely before fitting a lid or cover. Use only breathable cover material as directed by The Outdoor Plus. Plastic and other non-breathable materials can stick to the finish.
Placement & Installation
The Catalina is intended for outdoor use only. Before ordering, have a qualified installer review the supporting surface, gas supply, required clearances and any electrical requirements. Keep access panels and ventilation openings unobstructed when planning nearby furniture or landscaping.
For a long fire pit between facing sofas, the routes around the ends deserve particular attention. Leave room to enter and leave the seating group without squeezing between the fire feature and occupied seats. The 28-inch body width doesn't replace the clearances required around the flame.
Check the delivery route for gates, steps and tight turns. The 108- and 120-inch models are nine and ten feet long, respectively, which can complicate access even where a passage is wide enough. Confirm unloading arrangements and how the unit will reach its final location; don't assume delivery includes placement.
For designer and hospitality projects, resolve circulation, operating access and service access before fixing the furniture plan. Installation must follow the manufacturer's instructions for the selected size and ignition system, along with applicable local requirements. Confirm any additional commercial requirements with the installer and local authority.
