Carmen Fire Pit in Powder Coat: a six-foot linear fire pit in two heights
The Outdoor Plus Carmen fire pit in powder coat is a sleek, six-foot linear gas fire pit that works as a centerpiece or a glowing divider between two outdoor areas, in heavy steel with a baked-on color finish. Choose a low 16-inch height or a 24-inch height that hides a propane tank inside; it puts out up to 65,000 BTUs.
Order it for natural gas or propane. Light it with a match, or add electronic ignition and start it with a button. The burner, pan, hose, and fittings are included; a key valve, cover, stainless lid, wind guard, and fire glass are optional. Prefer stone? See the GFRC concrete Carmen. The powder-coated Carmen fire pit ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What powder coat colors does the Carmen come in?
Fifteen cured finishes: Black, White, Silver Vein, Java, Gray, Pewter, Copper Vein, Olive Green, Mist, Soft White, Onyx Black, Bronze Hammertone, Sapphire Blue, White Vein and Gold Vein. The powder-coated Carmen is the one you color-match to your hardscape — and unlike its Corten and copper siblings, the shade you pick is the shade it keeps.
Which heights does the powder-coated Carmen come in?
The Carmen’s 72-inch linear form in two heights — OPT-CRMPC7216 at 16 inches and OPT-CRMPC7224 at 24 inches. White at 16 inches reads crisp and coastal; Black at 24 inches turns architectural. Same fire system throughout.
Which ignition systems fit the powder-coated Carmen?
Match Lit, Match Lit with Flame Sense (LC certified), Flame Sense with Spark, Low Voltage Electronic (CSA certified), and Plug and Play Ready (CSA certified). For a Carmen integrated into a designed patio, the CSA electronic systems wire neatly into switches and controls.
Fire glass or lava rock on the burner line?
Against powder coat, fire glass is the showstopper — a contrasting glass color running the Carmen’s full 72-inch trough doubles the sparkle at night. Lava rock gives a quieter, natural bed for less. Use only rated fire media; random landscape rock can pop when heated.
What will it cost to run in gas terms?
Flame height is the throttle — the Carmen at a low shimmer sips fuel all evening, while full output on the 72-inch burner draws hard. Propane users get several moderate-flame hours per 20-pound tank; natural gas owners just fold it into the utility bill.
Can you actually cook on it?
Stick to skewer treats — marshmallows and s’mores over the flame are perfect, but grease-heavy cooking will foul the Carmen’s burner and media and stain the powder coat. Real cooking belongs on a grill; this is the dessert-and-ambiance station.
When is the powder-coated Carmen’s fuel chosen?
At purchase — every powder-coated Carmen is built for the liquid propane or natural gas you specify, shipping with pan, plate burner, mounting bracket, orifice, and whistle-free hose. Weigh both fuels across our gas fire pit lineup.
