Golden Blount is a family-owned manufacturer of gas fireplaces and accessories based in Texas. Since starting its domestic manufacturing operations in 1991, Golden Blount has rolled out a number of innovative products and systems, including the patented Controlled Ember Bed and a proprietary gas safety valve. In addition to gas fireplaces, vent-free gas logs and its Alpine Linear Burners in widths ranging from two to six feet, Golden Blount also offers outdoor fire pits and a unique set of professional-grade grills operating on advanced, infra-red heating technology. Golden Blout outdoor fire pits are an excellent alternative to cheaper products, featuring textured bricks and realistic-looking ceramic logs (fireglass option is available), in addition to high velocity spoke burners and optional remote control ignition.
