Tidal Fire Pit: a 48-inch metal fire pit with wave-shaped sides
The Outdoor Plus Tidal fire pit is a 48-inch rectangular gas fire pit whose side panels are sculpted into rolling S-curves, like waves, so it reads as a piece of art even when the flame is off. It is handmade in the USA in hammered copper, Corten steel, stainless steel, or powder-coated steel in many colors.
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 the whole pit to curve, not just the sides? See the wave-shaped Billow fire pit. The Tidal fire pit ships free from My Cozy Outdoors with No Sales Tax (except WY) and the full manufacturer warranty.

FAQ
What finish options does the Tidal come in?
The full metal wardrobe on one 48-inch design: hand-hammered patina copper (OPT-TIDCPR48), Corten steel (OPT-TIDCS48), stainless steel (OPT-TIDSS48), and powder coat (OPT-TIDPC48) in colors like Black, Java, Pewter, and White. Same Tidal shape underneath — the metal decides whether it reads warm, weathered, or crisp.
What fuel and ignition options does the Tidal have?
Every Tidal is built to order for Liquid Propane or Natural Gas, with five ignition systems on the menu: Match Lit, Match Lit with Flame Sense (LC certified), Flame Sense with Spark, Low Voltage Electronic (CSA certified), and Plug and Play (CSA certified).
Does it come with the burner hardware?
Yes — the Tidal includes its fire pan and plate, burner, mounting bracket, fuel-matched orifice, and whistle-free hose, so the fire system is complete on arrival. Your side of the deal is the gas supply and a licensed installer to connect it.
Can you roast marshmallows on a gas fire pit?
Over the Tidal, happily — gas burns clean, so toasted marshmallows are safe and taste the way they should. A 48-inch fire gives several skewers room to work. Keep sugar drips off the media, especially if you chose the patina copper finish.
How is the Tidal fire pit lit?
Match Lit Tidals light in seconds: ease the valve open, touch a long lighter to the burner, done. The electronic builds move the whole affair to a button or switch with automatic flame supervision. Both beat stacking kindling by roughly twenty minutes a night.
How much warmth does the 48-inch Tidal give off?
Gas flame exceeds 1,000 degrees at the source, and the Tidal 48-inch format turns that into a generous circle of radiant warmth — enough to hold a seating group comfortable well into a cool evening, and adjustable down to a gentle ambient glow at the valve. More formats live in our gas fire pit collection.
Is a covered patio out of the question?
Not automatically — but the Tidal spec sheet clearances decide. Overhead distance and honest ventilation are non-negotiable with any gas flame, and low roofs rarely qualify. If your structure cannot meet the numbers, position it just beyond the roofline and keep the view.
