Live fire wall & Grill system

Cooking over fire is all about control, and this system is built to work with the way you cook. The adjustable grills let you move closer or further from the fire as needed, whether you’re searing hot or easing things back for a slower cook. It’s simple, responsive, and gives you the freedom to cook how you want without fighting the fire.

EspetoSul Rotisserie mount

Our rotisserie mounts allow you to use Espetosul rotisseries anywhere along the length of the grill. They position the rotisserie at the perfect height for cooking, helping you achieve the best flavor over hot coals. Once cooking is complete, the mounts can be easily removed for convenience and flexibility.

Frequently asked questions

How much does the Swelter Weigh?

The Swelter Firepit weighs up to 30kg with accessories installed — a true testament to the rugged build quality and craftsmanship we pride ourselves on at Rawsteelco.

Is it safe for my deck?

Yes — the Swelter Firepit can be used on a wooden deck, but you’ll need to use our Deck Guard accessory to protect the surface from heat. You can purchase it here.

What is the turn-around time for when ordering a Swelter?

The standard build time for a Swelter Firepit is around 3–5 weeks, depending on the time of year. If you need a more accurate timeframe — or you’re hoping to get one sooner — just get in touch and our team will sort you out.

Is this built in New Zealand?

Yes — we’re proud to say all of our products are handmade right here in Canterbury, New Zealand. You can read more about our story on our About page.

What is the Swelter made from, and how tough is it?

The Swelter Firepit is built from 5mm Corten steel, designed to handle serious heat and outdoor conditions. Under the high-temperature paint is raw Corten steel, which naturally develops a protective patina over time. So while the paint may scratch with use, it’s no problem — the steel underneath is made to last and will continue to protect itself from the elements.
