In this article, we will be focusing on the type and sizes of lava rocks you can use, how to arrange lava rock on a gas fire pit, how you can maintain your lava rocks, and how to set up your lava rock with crossfire burner nozzles.
Lava rocks are naturally created when volcanic magma deep underneath the earth rises to the surface, cools off, and solidifies. Basalt rock is a generic term for volcanic rock, including lava rock that you use in your fire pit. Lava rock is considered durable, safe and of course, will make your fire pit look beautiful. Since lava rock is very porous, it allows more airflow to your burner which help distribute heat evenly and gives you a richer flame.
