Mesa Heat Deflector

YES! Do not touch any part of the heat deflector when in use. It will be extremely hot. Children should always be under parental supervision when around the fire pit and heat deflector. Always treat heat deflector like an open flame. IMPORTANT: Do not use Solo Stove Heat Deflectors in windy conditions.

Let both your heat deflector and fire pit cool naturally and completely before attempting to move any component of the setup. Using heat-resistant Gloves, the heat deflector can be removed from the cooling fire pit and placed in a safe place to cool down separately. Do not place it on combustible surfaces.

With preventative care, like keeping the heat deflector out of the rain and humidity, cleaning sessions should be few and far between. After a few using, some soot will build up on the bottom of the deflector. We recommend polishing its surfaces with Barkeepers Friend and a dry cloth. Always ensure that the heat deflector is completely dry before storing to prevent surface rust.

Your Mesa Heat Deflector is ready to use as soon as you snap it together out of the box. And easy, tool-less assembly will have you warming up in no time. The Mesa Heat Deflector includes a carry bag in the box that fits both your new deflector, and your Mesa, making it easier than ever to take on the go.

There are many factors that could influence the heat dispersion of the Mesa Heat Deflector. Among them, wind, coal bed, flame size, ambient temperature, and position of the Mesa. To get the optimal heat dispersion from your Mesa and Heat Deflector, use it in calm conditions and at a normal table height. The heat deflector is meant to send heat outwards, and can increase ambient temperatures by up to 14°C for the Mesa XL (12° for Mesa) and increase the heat radius up to two feet.
