WARNING:
This appliance is HOT when operated and can cause severe burns if
contacted. Use Protective gear such as oven gloves or pot holders when in contact.
SEQUENCE OF OPERATION
Choosing Fuel - Dry, seasoned, split hardwoods cut to less than 24” in length. 16-18”
being the optimal length.
Recommended wood placement - For best performance firewood should be
concentrated to the outer edges of the fire pit and over a bed of coals.
Lighting - Kindling stacked around crumpled newspaper is an easy method for a 1
match fire. Once the kindling is burning slowly add increasingly larger diameter pieces
of wood.
Feeding flames - When adding logs to the fire as it burns down there will be additional
smoke.
Burn out - Allow fire to burn out on its own. Avoid snuffing with the lid or extinguishing
with water.
DISCLAIMER:
NES is a Smokeless wood burning fire pit. The term Smokeless means
reduced smoke as compared with a typical fire pit. The design allows it to be catalytic.
By introducing heated air to the top of the fire where it mixes with the unburned fuel
(smoke) and allows it to burn a second time. This process does take time to begin. It
relies on the outer walls being very hot to create convection to move the air. From the
ignition of your fire it will take between 15-30 minutes. You may see fire projecting from
the series of holes around the top.
