Portolo Water Feature with Fire*

Portolo Hills

This water feature was built to be movable and not a permanent structure. We can build any size or shape with any material. Typically these would be grouted in place after installation. Fire can be added almost anywhere. The VortexED fires were added on each back ledge.

Now we will take you through a step by step from building to installation and final operation.

Some of the pictures may appear to be the same, but they are from different perspectives and angles. We are trying to show you as much detail as possible.

The outer seating ring was transported on it's own flat crate and then simply slid onto the basin.

The complete unit was 36" tall and 72" wide when finished. The base was 18" tall with seating on the outer edge and the back wall was 18" above the basin. The two VortexED Fires were 18" withe the two back panels in reflective, making it look like several fires inside of the VortexED.

The next fire table was built by Brian Johnson of Omaha Nebraska, very nice! We supplied the components and Brian did the hard part, the table.
