- How does a smokeless fire pit work?
- It feeds air into the fire from below and above, so gases that would otherwise escape as smoke burn off inside the pit. That means less smoke and more heat from the same wood. It works best with dry, seasoned wood.
- How big a fire can it hold?
- The firebox is small, sized for short logs split to fit. Expect a modest, sit-around fire rather than a large blaze. Keep the load below the rim so the secondary air vents stay clear.
- Can I use it on a wooden deck?
- Only with care. The steel body gets hot, so set it on a non-combustible surface or a heat-resistant mat and keep it away from railings and overhangs. Check local rules for open flames on decks and balconies.
- Is it easy to move and store?
- Yes. At about 16 inches wide and 12.5 inches tall, one person can lift it. Let it cool fully and empty the ash before moving it, and store it covered to slow rust.
- What do I need to get started?
- Dry, split firewood, a lighter or fire starter, and a non-combustible surface to set it on. A cover is worth adding for storage.
