Empire Distributing
overview
Make a statement with the FIRE PIT, UPTOWN (1242) BLACK w/ DSI NG—a liquid propane ready centerpiece that blends urban design with high-performance heat. Crafted with Absolute Black tile and a Midnight Mist Supercast concrete top, this fire pit brings a polished, contemporary look to any outdoor living area while delivering inviting warmth and ambience.
Designed for versatility and long-lasting enjoyment, Uptown is built around a 12" x 42" Crystal Fire® Plus burner. This premium burner uses clear tempered glass gems to create a vivid, jewel-like flame display while delivering substantial heat—65,000 BTU on LP and 80,000 BTU on NG—so you can comfortably heat large outdoor gatherings even on cooler evenings.
Key features that set Uptown apart
- Premium materials — Absolute Black tile on a Midnight Storm stucco base offers a sophisticated, durable exterior designed for outdoor weather and years of use.
- Powerful, flexible heat — 65,000 BTU (LP) / 80,000 BTU (NG) for substantial warmth that fills a patio or seating area with steady, radiant heat.
- Crystal Fire burner with glass media — Clear tempered fire glass gems top the burner for a bright, reflective flame display that remains visually striking even from across the yard.
- Gas options that fit your space — Factory setup for liquid propane with an included conversion kit to natural gas, giving you flexibility if your fuel source changes.
- Ignition choices — Standard manual ignition with a battery-operated sparker, with an upgrade option to electronic Direct Spark Ignition for effortless lighting on NG.
- Concealed fuel storage — A sliding access door conceals a standard 20 lb propane tank in the base for a clean, uncluttered look.
- Safety and durability — UL listed and Made in the USA with US and imported parts, designed to meet strict safety standards while delivering consistent performance.
- Extras available — Optional glass wind guard, protective cover, and additional fire media are sold separately to tailor the look and performance to your space.
The Uptown is generously sized, measuring 64.5" long by 48.25" wide with a 23.63" height and tipping the scales at 445 lbs. It’s built to be a focal point for larger patios, decks, or outdoor entertaining spaces where you want both style and serious heat.
Why this fire pit is ideal for you
- If you host outdoor dinners or gatherings, Uptown provides ample warmth for guests while its sleek profile complements modern furniture and decor.
- If you’re upgrading from a smaller fire pit, the larger footprint and higher BTU output mean you’ll experience more consistent warmth across a wider seating area.
- If you value fuel flexibility, the included NG conversion kit lets you switch from LP without buying a new unit, simplifying long-term maintenance.
- If you want a low-maintenance, high-design centerpiece, the concealed propane tank and media options keep the setup tidy and visually striking.
Practical considerations to get the most from your Uptown: always remove the burner cover before lighting and operating the burner, use the appropriate media and wind guard as needed, and consult the Prop 65 warning for safety information. For added convenience and longevity, pair with the protective cover when not in use and store any optional media in a dry place.
