Buschbeck Grills

Acceptable Standards

Information on acceptable and non-acceptable imperfections

Buschbeck Outdoor Fireplaces are constructed using quartzite concrete – a natural product. Given the nature of concrete, you could expect to find some imperfections in your masonry outdoor fireplace. Buschbeck models have either a copper or stainless-steel insert.

Note: A product installed is a product accepted! If you are unhappy with the quality of the product, please notify us immediately before undertaking any installation!

Important: The copper is made from industrial copper which can have imperfections such as tarnishing around the edges and light scratches/blemishes.

Below are some examples of what Buschbeck regard as an acceptable standard and what requires replacement parts. Replacement parts are marked with an X.
