Fire Magic Grill Repair & Service
Long-running California grill brand known for Echelon Diamond and Aurora built-in gas grills.
About Fire Magic
Fire Magic is a Southern California grill maker owned by the Robert H. Peterson Company, the same company behind Real-Fyre gas logs. Its main products are built-in and freestanding gas grills in three tiers: Choice at the entry end, Aurora in the middle and Echelon Diamond at the top, along with charcoal grills and a full set of outdoor kitchen parts.
Fire Magic sits in the premium to luxury range. It is common in custom outdoor kitchens across California and the Southwest, and many homeowners keep the same grill for decades because parts stay available for older models. Buyers tend to be people who want a long-lasting grill with cast stainless burners and a wide choice of add-ons. Its warranty includes two years of labor on top of long parts coverage.
History
Fire Magic started as a line of fireplaces and barbecues designed by Bob Keck and his brother while working at Whittier Steel and Manufacturing, a company owned by their father, Harold Keck. In the 1970s the brothers designed what is described as the first AGA-certified indoor slide-in grill for natural gas, which raised the brand's profile. The Robert H. Peterson Company later bought the Fire Magic name, and Bob Keck ran the Fire Magic division and later became a vice president. Fire Magic grills are still built in California.
