How the Smokeless Fire Pit Works
Elevated Base: The fire pit has a raised design, which allows air to flow underneath the fire. This elevated base creates space for better airflow around the fire.
Air Intakes at the Bottom: At the bottom of the fire pit, there are vents or openings that allow cooler air to enter. This fresh air feeds the fire and helps it burn more efficiently.
Airflow and Superheating: As the cooler air enters from the bottom, it gets drawn into the fire and heated up. Because the air travels upward through the fire pit, it becomes superheated before reaching the top of the fire.
Outlets at the Top: At the top of the fire pit, there are additional vents or outlets. These allow the now superheated air to escape.
Secondary Burn: The key feature here is that the superheated air mixes with the gases (smoke) produced by the fire. This combination leads to a "secondary burn"—essentially a second combustion process. The high heat causes the unburnt gases, which would typically be released as smoke, to burn up instead.
Cleaner Burn and More Heat: This secondary burn reduces the amount of visible smoke and increases the efficiency of the fire. By burning off the gases, the fire pit produces more heat, creating a warmer, more comfortable atmosphere.

Made from steel, it is recommended to store in a dry environment indoors to minimise rust. Similar to barbecue grills, its exterior can be refreshed with a little sanding and a top-coat.
