The Outdoor GreatRoom Company Rectangular Folding Glass Wind Guard (FWG-1224) represents a significant evolutionary leap in outdoor fireplace safety and performance engineering. Designed specifically to interface with the 12" x 24" Crystal Fire® Plus linear burner series, this premium accessory shields the active flame pattern from turbulent patio crosswinds. In doing so, it preserves the clean air-to-fuel balance required for smoke-free operation, reduces fuel consumption, and keeps nearby guests safe from erratic heat spikes.
Unlike rigid glass shields that must be lifted off and safely stored elsewhere when the fire pit is turned off, the FWG-1224 utilizes an innovative multi-hinge system. When the burner cools down, the four glass panels fold completely flat to cover the interior burner pan. This dual-state mechanic shields the internal fire gems and burner orifices from leaves, rainwater, and organic outdoor debris, eliminating the need for a separate metal or glass insert lid while maintaining a clean, low-profile tabletop aesthetic.
Key Features
-
Articulating Heavy-Duty Hinge Network: Outfitted with custom-engineered mechanical hinges that allow the four independent glass panels to articulate fluidly between an upright wind shield and a flush burner preservation screen.
-
Tempered Safety Glass Formulation: Fabricated from high-clarity, extra-dense tempered glass sheets designed to tolerate intense, localized thermal expansion and radiant heat stress without fracturing or hazing.
-
Flame Stabilization Performance: By blocking disruptive crosswinds, the enclosure prevents flame displacement, keeping heat projected evenly upwards and outwards to maximize the comfort zone of your outdoor layout.
-
Integrated Burner Basin Preservation: When folded downward into its low-profile resting state, the glass structure acts as a complete debris barrier over the fire gems, saving internal mechanics from moisture pooling and clogging.
-
Polished Aluminum Corner Brackets: Secured by high-alloy aluminum hardware treated to resist environmental oxidation, keeping the panels rigidly aligned without scratching the table top.
-
Tool-Free Modular Installation: The entire system is engineered to sit securely on top of the fire table frame around the burner lip, ensuring rapid, hardware-free removal for deep sanitation cycles.
