Pismo Fire Pit in Stainless Steel: a clean rectangular fire pit for modern patios
The Outdoor Plus Pismo fire pit in stainless steel is a simple rectangular gas fire pit with straight cliff-like sides, 24 inches deep and 48, 60, 72, or 84 inches long, handmade in the USA. Stainless keeps its bright brushed finish with no rust and no patina, so a soapy wipe-down is all the upkeep it needs.
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. Want a metal with more warmth? See the hammered copper Pismo. The stainless Pismo fire pit ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
Where does the stainless Pismo fit best?
Contemporary, low-maintenance spaces — poolside decks, rooftop terraces, modern courtyards. The stainless Pismo keeps a bright machined finish with zero rust risk and zero patina drama; upkeep is a soapy wipe-down. If copper and Corten are finishes with a story arc, stainless is the finish that stays on page one.
Which diameters does the stainless Pismo offer?
Four rounds: 48-inch (OPT-R4824SS), 60-inch (OPT-R6024SS), 72-inch (OPT-R7224SS), and 84-inch (OPT-R8424SS). The smaller stainless Pismo bowls work as furniture-scale features; the 72 and 84-inch sizes are architectural anchors for large terraces and commercial settings.
What ignition options does the stainless Pismo offer?
Five: Match Lit, Match Lit with Flame Sense (LC certified), Flame Sense with Spark, Low Voltage Electronic (CSA certified), and Plug and Play (CSA certified). A stainless Pismo with push-button electronic ignition is the full modern package — clean lines, clean start, clean shutdown.
What will it cost to run per evening?
Driven by size and flame height. A Pismo run at ambiance level sips fuel — a 20-pound propane tank covers multiple sessions — while full flame on the larger bowls is a bigger draw. Plumbed natural gas cuts the hourly cost dramatically, which suits this unit permanent-installation character.
How far from the house does it need to be?
Use ten feet from structures and overhangs as the planning default and let local fire code finalize it. With four Pismo sizes available, tight lots have options: stepping down from the 84-inch to a 48 or 60-inch bowl often reclaims the clearance a site plan needs.
Any issue placing it on an outdoor rug?
Yes — do not. The stainless Pismo needs a non-combustible base: stone, pavers, or concrete. Radiant heat off the bowl and hot media are unkind to synthetic fibers directly beneath. Position rugs under the surrounding furniture instead, where they frame the fire rather than sit under it.
How do I specify the fuel?
At checkout — every stainless Pismo is built to order for Liquid Propane or Natural Gas and ships configured for your choice, like the rest of our gas fire pit selection. A licensed installer should make the final connection whichever fuel you run.
