Fire pit rules in Marana, AZ — also called outdoor burning, recreational fire, or open flame ordinances — cover fuel types, clearances, and when burning is allowed.
Recreational fire pits allowed in Marana. Minimum 25-foot clearance from structures recommended per fire safety standards. Gas/propane fire features exempt from burn restrictions. PDEQ no-burn advisories apply to wood burning.
Marana allows recreational fires in portable or permanent fire pits under specific conditions. Pits must be at least 25 feet from any structure, fence, or combustible material, have a maximum diameter of 3 feet, and burn only clean, dry firewood — no trash, treated lumber, or yard waste. An adult must attend the fire at all times with an extinguishing method nearby. During May-September, the fire department may declare burn bans that prohibit all outdoor fires. The arid desert climate of Southwest influences the frequency and duration of fire restrictions.
Violations of fire pit rules carry fines of $100–$500. Fires during a declared burn ban are misdemeanors with fines up to $1,000 and potential criminal liability for any resulting damage.
