Maintenance & Care

Maintenance and Care
Aluminum Powder Coated Fire Tables

Modofire aluminum fire tables are engineered for long term outdoor use with minimal maintenance. Proper care helps preserve appearance, performance, and safety.

Aluminum Powder Coated Surfaces
Clean periodically using mild soap and clean water with a soft cloth or sponge. Rinse thoroughly and allow to dry. Avoid abrasive pads, harsh chemicals, solvents, citrus cleaners, bleach, or acidic or alkaline cleaners. Do not pressure wash at close range. In coastal or high dust environments, more frequent cleaning is recommended.

Burner System Care
Burners are fabricated from stainless steel or brass and are designed for outdoor exposure. Periodically inspect the burner ports to ensure they are clear of debris, leaves, insects, or fire media dust. If buildup is present, gently brush or blow out ports with compressed air. Do not enlarge burner holes or modify the burner in any way.

Fire media should be arranged loosely and evenly to allow proper airflow. Avoid overfilling or compacting media, as this can affect flame performance.

Ignition Systems
Electronic Ignition
Electronic ignition systems should be kept dry and free of standing water. Inspect wiring, connections, and components periodically to ensure they remain secure and undamaged. If the unit is exposed to heavy rain or moisture, allow components to fully dry before operation. Replace batteries if applicable and follow ignition manufacturer recommendations for seasonal checks.

Manual Ignition
Manual systems require minimal maintenance. Periodically inspect valves and fittings for proper operation and ensure controls remain clean and unobstructed.

Covers and Lids
Using a lid or protective cover when the fire table is not in use is strongly recommended. Covers help reduce debris buildup, protect finishes, and extend the life of burners and ignition components. Ensure the unit is fully cooled before placing a lid or cover. Remove standing water from covers to prevent moisture accumulation.

General Use Guidelines
Operate the fire table only as intended and in accordance with local codes and manufacturer instructions. Do not use the unit as a heat source for enclosed spaces or for cooking unless specifically designed for that purpose. Avoid placing heavy objects on the surface or lid.

Seasonal and Long Term Care
Before extended periods of non use, clean the unit, inspect the burner and ignition system, and install a cover. At the start of each season, perform a visual inspection and test operation before regular use.

With basic care and routine inspections, Modofire aluminum powder coated fire tables are built to deliver reliable performance, visual integrity, and long term durability in outdoor environments.
