More warmth around the fire — not above it.
Make your outdoor fire pit work harder with this 24-Inch Stainless Steel Fire Pit Heat Deflector, designed to redirect rising heat downward and outward toward the people gathered around the fire.
The elevated stainless steel reflector captures heat that would otherwise travel straight upward and helps distribute it across the surrounding seating area — making chilly evenings around the fire considerably more comfortable.
Add it to a compatible fire pit and turn beautiful flames into a more effective outdoor heat source.
Why You'll Love It
Redirects Heat Toward Your Guests
Instead of allowing the majority of radiant heat to travel directly upward, the large stainless steel surface helps reflect warmth downward and outward around the fire pit.
24" × 24" Reflective Surface
The generously sized square reflector provides substantial coverage above compatible fire pits.
Heavy-Duty Stainless Steel
Constructed from durable stainless steel designed to tolerate the high temperatures associated with fire pit use.
Four Elevated Legs
The deflector sits above the flame rather than directly covering it, allowing the fire to continue burning while heat is reflected outward.
Foldable Legs
Collapse the four legs when the deflector isn't being used for easier storage.
Built-In Carrying Handle
A top handle makes the unit easier to transport and reposition when appropriate.
Rounded Corners
Smooth, rounded corners provide a more finished design while eliminating sharp projecting corners.
How a Heat Deflector Works
Heat naturally rises.
That's great for the sky.
Less helpful for the people sitting around your fire pit.
The stainless steel plate creates a reflective surface above the flame, helping redirect radiant heat outward and downward toward the surrounding area.
The result is a broader zone of warmth around your fire pit without changing the fire itself.
Turn Your Fire Pit Into a Better Gathering Place
A fire pit naturally becomes the destination after dinner.
Adding a heat deflector can make that gathering area more comfortable when temperatures drop — particularly when guests are seated around the perimeter rather than standing directly beside the flame.
Use it for:
After-Dinner Drinks • Wine Nights • Backyard Parties • Outdoor Lounging • Fall Entertaining • Cool Summer Nights • Patio Gatherings
A Natural Companion to Our Propane Fire Pit Table
Pair a compatible fire pit with a heat deflector to create a more complete outdoor entertaining setup.
Fire Pit
Creates the flame, warmth, and central gathering point.
Heat Deflector
Helps redirect more of that warmth toward the surrounding seating area.
Outdoor String Lights
Provide soft overhead illumination.
Solar Landscape Lights
Define pathways and the perimeter.
Flameless Candles
Add lower-level ambient lighting around tables.
Together, these elements transform a patio into an outdoor living space designed to be enjoyed well after sunset.
Fold It Away When You're Done
Outdoor entertaining products can take up considerable storage space.
The four supporting legs on this deflector fold down, making the unit easier to store between uses or at the end of the season.
The integrated top handle also makes it easier to carry to and from your entertaining area.

Compatibility
Designed for use over appropriately sized round or rectangular fire pits smaller than the deflector's footprint.
Always compare the dimensions of your fire pit, burner area, flame height, and manufacturer clearance requirements before use.
Important Safety Information
The heat deflector and surrounding components can become extremely hot during operation.
Do not attempt to move, fold, disassemble, or store the deflector while it is hot. Allow it to cool completely before handling.
The heat-resistant handle is designed to reduce heat transfer but should not be assumed to remain cool during or immediately after fire pit operation.
Use only with a fire pit whose manufacturer permits an overhead heat deflector, and maintain all required clearances from combustible materials, structures, umbrellas, awnings, furniture, and other objects.
Entertaining Expert Tip
Think about your fire pit as an entire after-dinner zone, not just a source of heat.
Position comfortable seating around it, keep throws nearby for chilly nights, add a small drinks table within reach, and use warm ambient lighting rather than bright overhead fixtures.
Then add the heat deflector to help keep more warmth where you actually want it:
Around the people.
Keep the Heat Where the Party Is
Because you're not trying to warm the night sky.
You're trying to keep everyone around the fire for one more drink.
