Empire Carol Rose 60" Linear Outdoor Gas Fire Pit, Multicolor LED
The Empire Carol Rose 60" linear fire pit with multicolor LED lighting is the burner for a gas fire table or outdoor island you build: a stainless steel unit that drops into the top, with the flame rising through crushed glass lit from below in one color or a cycle of colors.
It runs up to 65,000 Btu/hr on natural gas (model number OL60TP18N) or propane (OL60TP18P), with high, medium and low flame on a manual valve and a push-button spark igniter. It is for outdoor use only, and crushed glass is required and ordered separately.

The Empire Carol Rose 60" LED Fire Pit: Color Under the Glass
Build an enclosure 63 3/4" to 64 1/2" wide, 22 5/8" to 23 1/2" deep and at least 7 1/2" high inside, from a raised frame of combustible material or a brick, block or stone base, and the 65" x 23 7/8" fire pit drops in with all four flanges supported. The visible surfaces are 11-gauge marine-grade 316 stainless steel.
A flame sensor shuts off the gas if wind or rain puts the fire out. On propane it can run from a fixed gas line or from a cylinder of 30 lb or less kept in a ventilated enclosure, and a stainless tilt-out propane tank door and vent register kit are available for the enclosure. The LED lights have seven fixed colors, two auto-cycle modes and three brightness levels, turn off after two hours with no activity, and need a 120V GFI-protected outlet near the valve end.

Installation Requirements
-
Location: outdoor use only, on a patio or in a yard in a well-ventilated space; never inside a building, garage or other enclosed area, and never with an opening to the inside of a house. A covered porch needs at least 96 sq ft of floor area. A partial enclosure must have either walls on the back and one side with no overhead cover, an overhead cover with no more than two side walls, or an overhead cover with three side walls and at least 30% of the perimeter permanently open (more if the open side is screened). A three-wall alcove is not allowed. Shelter it from direct wind.
-
Clearances: at least 3 1/4" from the edge of the glass bed to a combustible side wall and 12" to a combustible rear wall; a ceiling at least 48" above the top of the fire pit; no vinyl siding within 24" of the edge of the glass bed. The fire pit body itself needs no clearance to its enclosure.
-
Enclosure: the fire pit drops into an enclosure you build (not included): a raised frame of combustible material or a brick, block or stone base. All four perimeter flanges must be supported. Inside dimensions: 63 3/4" to 64 1/2" wide, 22 5/8" to 23 1/2" deep and at least 7 1/2" high, plus at least 6" more height with the drain tray.
-
Drainage: water must be able to drain away from the fire pit. The optional drain tray must go in before the fire pit.
-
Propane cylinder: a cylinder kept in the enclosure must be walled off from the burner and vented at the cylinder valve level and at floor level, with the enclosure floor at least 2" above the ground and a non-locking door; see the manual for vent sizes. Propane installs need an external regulator.
-
Power: a 120V GFI-protected outlet near the valve end of the fire pit for the LED lights; wiring to the junction box must be metal clad or in conduit rated for outdoor use.
-
Installation: must be installed by a qualified installer per the installation manual and local codes. In Massachusetts the installation must be done by a licensed plumber or gas fitter.
Make It Yours: Glass, Logs and Covers
Translucent glass goes over the burner and the LED lights: clear frost, bronze reflective or copper reflective, 6 to 8 bags in total. Black polished glass, blue clear glass, onyx drops and glacier ice droplets add accents; they count toward the 8-bag limit, and drops sit on top, out of the flame. For a log look, add the 60" birch (LBF60) or oak (LOF60) log set.
The stainless weather cover (WC60LSS) fits with or without the four-sided wind deflector glass kit (WG604LT). The drain tray (DT48LSS) needs 6" more enclosure height, and the E-Stop gas timer (1 to 60 minutes) has its own stainless compartment.

FAQs
Which Carol Rose is right for me?
The 60" fire pit with multicolor LED lights is a drop-in linear burner rated up to 65,000 Btu/hr. The Carol Rose outdoor line comes in three styles. The linear fireplaces (48", 60" and 72", single-sided or see-through) frame into an outdoor wall and burn over crushed glass with built-in LED lights. The linear fire pits (48" and 60", with or without multicolor LED lights) drop into a table, island or base you build. The Premium 36" and 42" are traditional outdoor ventless fireplaces with a refractory liner and Wildwood logs, in millivolt or intermittent ignition (IP) models.
What size enclosure do I need?
Inside: 63 3/4" to 64 1/2" wide, 22 5/8" to 23 1/2" deep and at least 7 1/2" high, plus at least 6" more height with the drain tray. All four perimeter flanges must be supported, and the fire pit body needs no clearance to its enclosure.
Can I use a propane tank?
Yes. It can run from a self-contained propane cylinder of 30 lb or less in a ventilated enclosure, or from a fixed gas line. A cylinder in the enclosure must be walled off from the burner and vented at the cylinder valve level and at floor level, and propane installs need an external regulator; see the manual for vent sizes.
What do I need to order with it?
Translucent crushed glass, 6 to 8 bags in total (one bag covers about 1 sq ft). The enclosure is built on site; the weather cover, wind deflector, drain tray, tank door, vent registers, log set and gas timer are optional.
Does it need electricity?
Only for the LED lights: a 120V GFI-protected outlet near the valve end, with metal-clad wiring or outdoor-rated conduit to the junction box. The igniter runs on an AA battery.
