The concrete block outdoor fireplace designed to last

Moderno concrete outdoor fireplaces are designed to stand the test of time, and blend into your outdoor landscaping while creating a focal point your visitors will admire. Their 24 square blocks, placed around a black or stainless steel tub, will build a 42" x 42" refined, modern, yet timeless-looking concrete fire pit. The protection from the flames offered by the inside tub guarantees that you'll enjoy your new outdoor fire pit for many years to come. Because your safety is our concern, we've purposely left the handle off the fireguard, meaning you'll need to use a poker to lift the screen. To optimize the durability of your Moderno fire pit, we recommend you add sand in the bottom of the firebox up to the tank, only make ambient fires and, to prevent thermal shocks, never water the blocks. Using your outdoor fire pit in the winter is not recommended. You can even cover your fire pit during the winter, to keep the blocks looking good.

Frequently asked questions

How do I make my fireplace last?

To ensure the durability of your blocks, we recommend that you (1) add sand to the bottom of the fireplace up to the tub (except for the BBQ fireplace), (2) only make ambient fires, (3) never water your blocks in order to avoid thermal shocks and (4) never make fires in winter, for the same reason as recommendation 3. You can even cover your fireplace during the winter to keep it looking new and warm. Our fireplaces are designed to be used as ambient fires. It’s a bad idea to use them for a bonfire, and we think a ambient fire is just as joyful 😉

Can I use other blocks than the ones you sell for fireplaces?

We do not recommend the use of products other than Moderno, Urbania, BBQ and Rustico blocks to create fireplaces. The reason is that the concrete in these specific products is designed to withstand the heat longer. In addition, our accessories, such as the fire guard, are designed for safe use of your fireplace and are not compatible with our other concrete products. Other hardscaping products may suffer from heat shock and crack if they come into direct contact with the flame, which is why we do not recommend them for building a fireplace.

The fireguards don't have handles, is it normal?

This is perfectly normal. While many find this inconvenient, we believe it is safer this way. If there were handles on the fire guard, many would be tempted to use them to open the fire guard to add wood to the fireplace. We recommend that you use a commercial poker to open both sides of the fire guard. Simply insert the tip of the poker into one of the holes in the fire guard to open it – but be careful!

What is the difference between the black painted steel fireguard and the stainless fireguard?

Besides the price, the difference is that the stainless steel fire guard will not rust. Black painted steel, over time, may require more maintenance! That’s why we recommend, when possible, storing your fire guard indoors or covering it with a tarp for the winter!

How to assemble your fireplaces?

The assembly of our fireplaces is SUPER simple and most of them take only a few minutes to assemble (well, let’s say less than an hour TOP!) Our fireplaces :

What is Hydrapel?

Our drycast products have undergone their greatest improvement to date with what is known as Hydrapel. Designed at the factory for increased quality and grading, the products are manufactured with an additive that makes them permeable and therefore more durable. Added directly to the mix of our drycast products, Hydrapel reduces the absorption rate and increases the resistance to freezing and thawing as well as to bad weather. Hydrapel protects against stains and reinforces the resistance to UV rays for a brilliant color that will last forever!

Does Patio Drummond offer a warranty on its landscaping products?

Patio Drummond offers a replacement warranty for manufacturing defects on our products, valid for one (1) year following the date of purchase. Installation costs are at the consumer’s expense.

My products are damaged, what should I do?

For landscaping products purchased at hardware stores, please contact the retailer from whom you purchased your products directly. The retailer will then contact us to open a claim file – if applicable.

Can I use de-icing salt on your products?

No. It is to be PROHIBITED! Patio Drummond prohibits the use of de-icing salt to prevent the surface of concrete slabs, pavers, balconies and stoops from flaking or crumbling. Patio Drummond declines all responsibility for damages caused by the use of de-icing salt on its products. De-icing salts are often sold without any warning about their harmful effects on concrete slabs, pavers and balconies. Even when a package mentions “safe for concrete”, it is important to pay close attention to the warnings and conditions of application, as they are often very unrealistic. The APCHQ strongly recommends the use of sand or fine gravel. Given the manufacturers’ restrictions on the use of de-icing salts, it is much simpler to refrain from sprinkling them on your concrete balconies, in order to prevent their surface from flaking or crumbling. Sand and gravel do require more maintenance, but these two products are certainly a guarantee of durability for the concrete of your slabs, pavers and balconies.
