Product Details

Lava Rocks instantly transform your outdated fire pit into a timeless classic. Naturally occurring, these lava rocks are formed as volcanic magma rises to the surface, cools and releases gases which gives these rocks their coarse surface. Because they are volcanic, they can withstand extremely high temperatures without sustaining any damage or crumbling. Lava Rocks can be used on their own as a focal point of your fire pit, or as a base layer underneath fire glass to keep the costs of your fire pit project down. The choice is yours! Lava Rock can withstand high temperatures in any fire feature because of the natural process magma goes through when cooling. As the magma cools, the rocks release gas bubbles that form a coarse, rough surface around the rock.
  • Made from natural resources
  • Comes in a variety of sizes, is black in color, has porous surface
  • For use with fire bowls, fire pits, and fireplaces, either indoors or outdoors (liquid propane or natural gas)
  • Lava can withstand extreme temperatures
  • Requires very little maintenance

Q:Outdoor wood burning fire pits. One question you answered that these rock can be used in a wood burning fire pit. The next time someone asked, you said you do not recommend them in a wood burning fire pit. Which one is the correct answer?

Answer This Question

A:  Hi James, thanks for reaching out! We apologize for the confusion. The reason we don't recommend using lava rock in wood burning fire pits is because you'll be scooping out the rocks when you're removing the soot. We also have not tested this product in wood burning fire pits so we will not recommend anything that we have not tested. While other reviews may have said it should be fine, its best to follow your local codes on what media is suitable for your fire feature. Please let us know if you have any further questions or concerns. Thank you! -AFG Customer Service

      Q:Can someone clarify the coverage. Am I reading this correctly that one bag will cover 845 sq ft?...

      Answer This Question

      A:  We apologize for the confusion, that measurement is incorrect and will be updated. Based off the dimensions you provided, to fill a 8' by 10' area with this product you would need about 266 pounds, which is about 27 bags.

          Most rocks are small!
          I almost returned these. However, I decided to give them a try anyway since my application was *not* for a fire pit, but rather, a bird bath. When I opened the package, there were a couple of the rocks that looked "medium" but mostly the bag was full of rocks that were barely 1/2" (minimum advertised) size. The second attached photo here shows them placed in the top of the birdbath pot. It is 15 inches on a side and there is a hardware cloth underlayment that is (estimate) a 1/4" on center grid. Many of the "rocks" fell through these squares into the bottom of the pot as I spread them out. (Those are medium round smoothed black pebbles in the corner and *not* from the purchased package. Would not recommend this product without research. Buyer beware.

            While this fire rock was a nice even black color this was a relatively small bag for $17 and volume was less than what was indicated in the description; probably because most of the bag were on the smaller end of the 1/2" to 1" scale and a significant amount smaller than 1/2". Would take two $17 bags to fill my firepit which is a 16" square 2" deep.
