How often do I need to clean out my fire pit and what should I use to do so?
We recommend cleaning out your fire pit after at least every 3-4 uses to avoid ash build-up. Ash build-up can cause the airflow in the bottom of the pit to be blocked, which in turn can cause a less smokeless fire. The best way to remove the ash from your fire pit is to use the Breeo Ash Shovel or a vacuum designed for removing ash. Always allow sufficient time for the ashes to cool before attempting to remove them.
What are some tips for building a smokeless fire?
The key to achieving maximum smoke reduction is a very hot fire spread evenly throughout the fire pit. Moving hot coals toward the outside wall will be helpful as well. This will provide more heat in the double-walled air chamber, which in turn will provide a more aggressive air current up through the air chamber, forcing that secondary combustion which is essential to making a fire smokeless.
Please note that adding bigger logs to your fire can cause the fire to burn cooler, so start by using smaller pieces then slowly adding bigger logs as the fire builds. As for stacking the wood, our best recommendations are as follows: Start by adding firestarter or dry shreds of paper or cardboard. Then, surround the fire starter with small pieces of kindling or dry twigs. Once the smaller pieces of kindling are burning well, carefully add larger, split logs (3-4" in diameter) one at a time. We recommend stacking the wood perpendicularly in a log cabin style. Also be sure that your wood has been dried sufficiently before attempting to burn. For more info, check out our article here.
Should I choose stainless or corten steel?
The shine of 304 Stainless Steel or the architectural vibe of Corten Steel? Truth is, you can’t go wrong. Both metals will last a lifetime. Used in commercial kitchen appliances and automotive wheels and rims, 304 Stainless Steel is designed for sleek performance. Corten Steel, on the other hand, is engineered to develop a weathered iron oxide surface coating (patina), protecting your fire pit from the elements the same way it does for bridges and building facades around the world. Your Corten fire pit will arrive in a blue steel finish, and will develop the weathered patina over time. Whether you choose Stainless or Corten, your smokeless fire pit is built to withstand the elements and the test of time.
How do Breeo fire pits work?
Breeo fire pits work through a double-wall, secondary combustion design. Basically, when the fire is burning well, the walls heat up and the hot air rises through the gap between the two walls. The air exits the wall cavity through the line of holes around the rim. This pressurized, heated oxygen mixes with the smoke and causes it to reburn. This is called secondary combustion.
Are Breeo fire pits really smokeless?
While we can't guarantee that our fire pits will never produce any smoke, you can be assured that, with the proper steps, a Breeo™ fire pit will produce significantly less smoke than a conventional fire pit. To achieve a smokeless fire, it is very important to take the proper steps when building the fire. The amount of smoke produced depends greatly on how well the fire is built.
