HPC Fire Square Flat Torpedo Fire Pit Burner Kit (On/Off Electronic Ignition)

HPC Fire Square Flat Torpedo Fire Pit Burner Kit (On/Off Electronic Ignition)

The HPC Fire Square Flat Torpedo Fire Pit Burner Kit with On/Off Electronic Ignition is a commercial-grade, automated outdoor fire insert manufactured by Hearth Products Controls (HPC). Engineered specifically for seamless, flush-mount installations within custom square stone, brick, paver, or concrete fire tables, this premium kit trades the traditional deep bowl profile for an ultra-low-profile square flat plate (pan) design.

This high-performance configuration integrates HPC's high-velocity Torpedo Nozzle technology with an automated On/Off Electronic Ignition (EI) network, allowing you to instantly command tall, roaring flames via a handheld remote control or a smartphone.

High-Velocity Torpedo Nozzles & Penta Geometry

• Roaring Torpedo Flame Booster: Torpedo configurations swap standard drilled burner ports for precision-engineered, heavy-duty brass nozzles. These specialized jets dramatically increase gas-to-oxygen velocity, throwing extra-tall, robust, roaring flames that replicate the dramatic visual presence, movement, and intense heat radiation of an authentic wood campfire.

• Campfire-Style Penta Burner Layout: The kit utilizes HPC's iconic Penta Burner architecture constructed from premium stainless steel. Its distinct five-point geometry draws fuel toward the center of the square layout, forming a tall, dense, and natural-looking flame pattern that wraps beautifully around fire glass or lava rock media without producing smoke or ash.

• Heavy-Duty Spun Square Flat Pan: Precision-crafted from thick, non-corrosive commercial 304 stainless steel, the flat square plate provides a rigid, flush resting lip to span your fire pit opening cleanly. It is outfitted with integrated weep holes for quick water drainage and a specialized raised center burner hub to prevent moisture from traveling down into the primary gas line manifold.

On/Off Electronic Ignition Automation & Safety

• Two-Way Bluetooth App Connectivity: Outfitted with an integrated smart internal antenna inside a weather-sealed lower control valve box, the system seamlessly pairs with the proprietary, free HPC Fire smartphone app (iOS and Android). This allows you to safely turn your fire pit on or off from up to 20 feet away, track real-time operations, and run system diagnostics straight from your smart device.

• Instant Full-Output Command: Includes a dedicated smart handheld remote control. Designed for absolute operational simplicity, a single press down on the remote button ignites the system immediately to full, maximized thermal heat and height output on a single command.

• Hot Surface Ignition (HSI) & Pilot Telemetry: Uses a durable hot surface igniter paired with an advanced pilot flame loop and thermocouple. The smart ignition module constantly checks for the presence of a flame. If an aggressive gust of wind suddenly blows out the fire, the valve instantly cuts off gas flow to prevent dangerous pooling, then safely initializes an automatic re-light sequence.

• Thermal Protection Auto-Shutoff: Housed within the sealed lower enclosure are built-in temperature diagnostics. If the internal space gets too hot due to poor venting or excess fire media, the system shuts down immediately to safeguard the electronic circuit boards.
