Can a fire ring be added to use this fire bowl with natural gas?

It would need to be modified and refitted. I suspect that you could have the gas line folks place the appropriate line to the bowl and drill a hole through the bottom to attach to your separate fire ring/burner/starter apparatus. This may not meet code requirements. You would also need to secure the bowl to the ground with outside hardware for safety. It should be solid enough to serve this purpose. I would consider it a mid level steel construction...not flimsy like many in stores, but not as heavy and thick as a cast iron one that we also have at home (which also weighs about 100 lbs more).

I have not but I do not see why you couldn't do it. It is a heavy vessel and should be able to stand up to the heat of gas.

No. This heater has jets for 'natural gas only'. Look for a model advertised for 'propane' if thats what you need. Propane is more volatile than natural gas and if connected to this heater would result in a very large yellow flame and would be a dangerous thing to do.

Yes, through Weber... but you most likely will need a licensed plumber or someone qualified to work with natural gas to get it hooked up

I think it can be used for both. I have this particular fire ring set up with natural gas and it works great.

Dear Marengo, Sturdy steel fire pit is enhanced with a beautiful 30" copper-finished fire bowl. Includes with a screened dome spark guard, bottom grate and poker. Please let me know If I can be of any further assistance. Sincerely, Melissa S. Plow & Hearth Customer Service

Yes & its not a big deal. Many heating & ac stores will do it for you. You will need a flex supply hose (required & avalible via amazon). Remove the short connection hose & regulator from the grill as you will attach the new flex line direct. There are 3 jets that regulate the flow to the burners. They need to be enlarged to allow more gas flow as natural has is under less pressure. For drill size contact companys who do heating instalations. I have enjoyed the no hassel, no tank & not running short of gas when grilling. Hope this helps & hood luck. Bill

Hi Zorine, the simple answer is "Yes". Unless you have an opening to insert charcoal or wood, with any BBQ grill, you'll have to either stop cooking or remove what you're cooking and add more charcoal or wood. The wonderful thing about the volcano is that you can use propane (if you have the kit). I hope this helps. Aloha, Al

you would have to change the jets for it to operate properly. It would light but burn too hot because the jets for natural gas are larger than those for propane.

Yes, I would not think that would be a problem at all. Once the rocks heat up, the heat only radiates from them, not through the bowl. Even the outer ring stays cool, barefoot feet on the outer ring is the best.

Yes. You should be able to convert to natural gas. Look for conversion kits that support three burners. Also make sure the nipples are rated for the BTUs of the burner. If you want to, I can look it up for you. That said, see my response to another customer. I had some major challenges assembling this grill including need for some modifications because the parts did not fit perfectly. Also, I listed some tips on assembly as well. Once assembled, I am happy. I grill year round here in Washington, DC. :)

Yes. We had a stone mason make a mortered ring and ours sits on a cement padio. The heat is all up, none down. It is an awesome fire pit. It looks like a camp fire. Very warm on cold nights. You should be great with your installation.

Yes, you can. I placed mine in a standard metal fire pit and that works too.

This item has not been specifically designed to work with any circular charcoal grills. The spit, motor, and accessories are fairly universal, but the bracket set does not have a planned method of fastening to the fire bowl. Please be advised that a charcoal ring is needed to complete assembly.

Yes, but the glass will not glow like embers and typically isn't mixed with logs. The glass is high heat tolerant and is fine with natural gass or propane.

Yes, it is very nice and fits totally across the top of the fire bowl. Hope that helps.

Mine came with a hook up for propane tank. I can't say if you can use natural gas or not.
