The Outdoor Plus Cazo Fire & Water Bowl - GFRC Concrete

Description

Fire alone is extraordinary. Fire with water is something else entirely. The Outdoor Plus Cazo Fire and Water Bowl takes the most recognized bowl design in the outdoor fire category and adds the one element that elevates it from a great fire feature to an unforgettable outdoor experience. Flames rise from the center. Water flows outward from the bowl, cascading gently over the curved GFRC surface. The sound, the movement, the interplay of opposing elements -- it is the kind of thing that stops a conversation and starts a new one.

 

The Cazo's design draws influence from Spanish-style architecture. Its round curvature, tapered profile, and clean, warm silhouette have made it one of the best-selling outdoor fire bowls in the country since its introduction, and the Fire and Water configuration takes that foundation and adds an entirely new sensory dimension. Water flows gently from the center of the bowl outward through an easy-flow water fitting that accommodates a 1.5-inch water line. The interior surface of the bowl has been specifically finished smooth for ease of water flow -- a detail that matters both aesthetically and functionally. A copper scupper with a 3/4-inch inlet is included to integrate the water supply cleanly into the bowl.

 

Every Cazo Fire and Water Bowl is individually handcrafted in the U.S.A. by The Outdoor Plus using their proprietary GFRC blend -- a glass fiber reinforced concrete that is stronger than standard concrete, approximately 50 percent lighter, and fully engineered for outdoor exposure in freezing temperatures and marine environments. The color is mixed directly into the GFRC blend, not applied as a surface coating, so minor chips or wear will not expose a gray undercoat. The glass fiber reinforcement means there is no steel rebar to rust or crack over time.

 

Eighteen color options are available across three distinct finish styles: Smooth Concrete (9 colors), Metallic Concrete (5 colors), and Rustic Concrete (4 colors). Four sizes -- 24, 31, 36, and 48 inches -- cover everything from a compact accent piece to a dramatic centerpiece for a resort-style estate. The 48-inch model steps up to a double-ring burner and 160,000 BTU, making it one of the most powerful residential fire and water features available anywhere.

 

Both match lit and 12V CSA Certified Electronic Ignition options are available across all four sizes. The 12V electronic ignition can be wired to a wall switch, pool controller (with available relay), or home automation system, making it a clean, integrated solution for any professionally designed outdoor space.

 

Note: Water pump, plumbing, and water supply lines are not included. A separate water pump and plumbing installation by a qualified contractor is required to activate the water feature. The Cazo is a fire and water bowl -- it is a fire bowl first, and functions fully as a fire-only bowl if the water connection is not installed.

 

Made to order. Slight variations in color and texture are a natural characteristic of the handcrafted GFRC process and are not defects.

Features

• Spanish-Inspired Round Design -- The Cazo draws influence from Spanish-style architecture. Its round curvature and tapered profile create a warm, inviting focal point that works equally well freestanding, poolside, or built into a custom surround.
• Combined Fire and Water Feature -- Flames rise from the center of the bowl while water flows gently outward from the center across the smooth bowl interior and over the edge. The two elements create a dynamic, multi-sensory outdoor experience unlike a fire-only bowl.
• Smooth Interior Finish for Water Flow -- The interior of the Cazo Fire and Water Bowl has been specifically finished smooth to facilitate clean, consistent water flow across the bowl surface. This is a design-specific finish not found on the fire-only Cazo.
• Easy-Flow Water Fitting Included -- A flow water fitting accommodating a 1.5-inch water line is included with every unit. Water flows from the center of the bowl outward. - Copper Scupper Included -- A copper scupper with a 3/4-inch inlet is included to provide a clean, integrated water supply connection into the bowl.
• Handcrafted in the U.S.A. -- Every bowl is individually made by The Outdoor Plus using premium materials for the fastest lead times in the industry. No two bowls are exactly identical due to the handmade process.
• Proprietary GFRC Concrete Construction -- Made from The Outdoor Plus's own Glass Fiber Reinforced Concrete blend. Approximately 50 percent stronger and lighter than traditional poured concrete. Engineered for all-climate outdoor use including freezing temperatures and marine environments.
• Color Mixed Into the Concrete -- The color is blended directly into the GFRC material, not applied as a surface coating. Minor chips or surface wear will not expose a different underlying color.
• Glass Fiber Reinforcement -- No steel rebar. Glass fiber reinforcement will not rust or crack over time, ensuring lasting structural integrity in permanent outdoor installations.
• Four Available Sizes -- 24", 31", 36", and 48" diameter options to suit spaces from compact patios to resort-scale estate landscapes.
• 18 Color Options Across 3 Finish Categories: Smooth Concrete (9): Ash, Black, Brown, Chestnut, Chocolate, Gray, Limestone, Natural Gray, Vanilla Metallic Concrete (5): Bronze, Copper, Pearl, Silver, Slate Rustic Concrete (4): Coffee, Rustic Gray, Rustic Moss Stone, Rustic White
• 304 Stainless Steel Burner -- Individually drilled (not punched) burner holes provide superior, consistent flame performance.
• Single Ring Burner (24", 31", 36") -- All three smaller sizes use a single ring burner configuration. - Double Ring Burner (48") -- The 48-inch model uses a double ring burner for its 160,000 BTU output -- the most powerful configuration in the Cazo line.
• Dual Fuel Compatible -- Available in Natural Gas or Liquid Propane. The appropriate gas orifice is included.
• SS Whistle-Free Hose (1/2") -- Stainless steel whistle-free hose included with every unit for clean, quiet gas connection.
• Match Lit Ignition Option (LC Certified) -- Key-valve manual ignition. No electricity required. Adjustable flame height. Simple, reliable, and virtually maintenance-free.
• 12V CSA Certified Electronic Ignition Option -- ANSI Z21.97-(2017) / CSA 2.41-(2017) certified 12V electronic ignition. Includes electronic valve and pilot igniter. Can be wired to a wall switch, pool controller (with available relay), or home automation system. Flame sense safety technology automatically shuts off gas if the flame is extinguished.
• Drain Holes -- Built-in drain holes in the stainless steel fire pan allow water drainage during outdoor use.
• Lava Rock Display Included -- Standard black lava rock is included with every unit as the burning display media. Fire glass available separately as an upgrade.
• Optional Key Valve Installation (OPT-KVI) -- Available as an add-on. Includes proper key valve installation onto the backside of the bowl for a clean integrated look.
• 1 Year Warranty Against Manufacturing Defects -- The Outdoor Plus provides a 1-year limited warranty covering manufacturing defects.
• Made to Order -- Each bowl is produced after the order is placed. Slight natural variations in color and texture are normal characteristics of the handcrafted GFRC process.
