Would this unit be safe to use on a wooden deck?

Yes. Those long skinny metal legs can be touched by fingers and not too hot. And on the top, you can grab that handle and carry/move the entire unit with out a glove.

Yes you can use it on a wooden deck. We do recommend putting something under it. We sell Deck Protectors. Thank you, The Blue Rooster Co 800-303-4312

I simply screwed mine into a wood deck and that works fine. As long as the base is firm AND LEVEL it should be fine. I emphasize level. otherwise you will have problems getting the roof panels in.

Stands about twelve inches off the ground. I would not recommend using on a wooden deck.

Sorry, I have not used it on a deck. However, I was just telling everyone at work how much I love it and that day 7 were ordered.

I would not try, but if you do, make sure it is securely attached to say a 4x4 using say 2"+ deck screws.

Should be OK as long as you...Insure you have at least 8ft. min. clearance all around unit. Do not set directly on wood decking. (Use 1/2" min. thick concrete protective board under it)

It will be safe to use, however, if you have windows that have drafts, it means they aren't sealed and you will get some smoke inside. I put mine on my front deck and just put it on a wooden pallet to raise it from the deck itself. It was fine.

We have used this fire pit for about a year now....it seems very safe and I think it would be great on a wood deck. Enjoy....Mike

I would think that it could. You would need to fasten it down for wind with something--nails? And if your deck is like mine it has space between the boards that might let misquitos come up from underneath.

I doubt it. The operation is smooth and does not scrape the surface of the walk or driveway as it removes snow. I believe it would be ok on wood, though I have not tried it. Curious, I do have a large wooden deck that I will try it on this winter. Of course, customer service at the manufacturer would be the best resource.

My answer is no. It's like using it on cement. The density of the material is too high and prevents the unit from getting behind it to wood or metal studs

I used it on my wood deck and wooden handicap ramp last winter and I have not seen any adverse effects. Seems to be very safe.

As long as it can "see" the light, and assuming you have it protected against the possibility of standing water, it'll work fine. I had mine on the deck for weeks while figuring out where I wanted it to "live."Great unit!

I use it on my wooden deck every time and I've not had a problem. It doesn't even discolor it. Get a sheet of cement backer-board (used under floor tiling) to put underneath if you're worried.

Assuming the rail that you are clamping it to isn't too think to slip between the clamp and that it is strong enough to support the weight from whatever you will be hanging on it I can't see why it would matter what material the deck is made of. It should be fine I would think.
