How to Set Up the Onlyfire Loom X in Minutes
Set up the Onlyfire Loom X in minutes by positioning the 28″ tabletop fireplace on a stable, level outdoor surface with clear space around all sides and keeping it away from walls, railings, and overhead items. Next, follow these Quick start steps: slide the unit into the open area, check the fire glass beads and burner are seated, then attach the included 10 ft connecting hose to the side fitting using the provided safety shutoff valve. Use this hose connection guide carefully—hand-tighten, avoid cross-threading, and make sure the hose isn’t kinked before lighting. Afterward, keep the fire pit pristine by brushing away debris with a fire pit brush before and after each use.
Safety Check: Propane Hookup, Valve Use, and Clearance
Before you light the Onlyfire Loom X, do a quick safety check of your propane hookup, valve operation, and clearances. Connect your 20 lb tank with the included hose, then perform a leak test using soapy water at every connection. Tighten fittings as needed, and practice leak prevention by keeping the hose uncrimped and protected from heat. Next, test valve operation: turn the safety shutoff fully open, then closed, confirming smooth action before ignition. Finally, verify burner clearance around the stainless burner and fire glass, ensuring no coverings, plants, or furniture block airflow. If you want extra peace of mind outdoors, consider installing a gas leak detector nearby to help catch problems early.

Some Questions Answered
Does This Fire Pit Work With a Natural Gas Line or Only Propane?
It only works with propane, not a natural gas line. The Onlyfire Loom X runs on liquefied petroleum gas and uses a propane side connection with a standard 20 lb tank (not included). You can’t plug it into natural gas without proper Natural gas compatibility conversion and professional Propane regulation requirements. For safety, don’t DIY any conversion—use a licensed technician to confirm safe pressure, fittings, and performance.
How Long Does a Standard 20 Lb Propane Tank Typically Last?
A standard 20 lb propane tank typically lasts about 10–20 hours, depending on how high you set the flame. You can estimate your Tank refill schedule using burn rate estimates from the fire pit’s 40,000 BTU/hr output—at full blast, expect closer to the lower end. For belonging and safety, you should start at medium, watch for dwindling flame, and always keep the tank valve fully accessible and outdoors.
Is the Fire Glass Beads Set Replaceable if Some Are Lost?
Yes—you can replace lost fire glass beads, but you should confirm compatibility first. Use Glass bead sourcing from the same size, color, and heat-rated type your Loom X kit uses. Follow a replacement procedure: let the unit fully cool, shut off propane, then carefully add beads around the burner without blocking air flow. If you can’t match them, contact Onlyfire support or a qualified dealer to keep your setup safe and reliable.
What Wind Conditions Should I Avoid for Safe, Stable Flames?
Avoid strong gusts and shifting wind direction right toward the burners, since that can harm flame stability. Don’t use it when wind speed feels high—if your flame visibly leans, flickers violently, or goes out, pause and wait. For burner safety, keep the table in a sheltered area, maintain clearances from walls/umbrellas, and always use the provided shutoff valve if conditions change. You’ll feel confident, safe, and cozy outdoors.
Can I Use a Cover, and Does It Protect the Hose Connection?
Yes, you can use a cover, but you need one with good cover fit to support heat shielding and keep airflow from overheating the table. Choose a weatherproof, breathable design so moisture doesn’t trap around the burner and valve. When you cover, angle or route the lid so it doesn’t press on the side connection. This improves water resistance, hose protection, and reduces wear at the hose fitting during rain.
