For Best Results Please Consider These Tips
While obeying all the “Important Safeguards and Operating Instructions” there are a few tips that can make
your Flame Genie fire pit experience even more enjoyable.
There are differences between wood pellets. Be sure to buy the best hardwood pellets. Take care to reseal or
close your wood pellet bag, or even store your wood pellets in a sealable container. Wood pellets are very
dry when first opened, but will attract water vapor slowly over time, which can affect performance when
burning.
Flame Genie should be placed on a non-combustible surface, such as a patio block, which will also act as a
catch for the small amount of ash generated by the Flame Genie.
Load the Flame Genie with approximately 2 — 2 1/2” of wood pellets before lighting. Fat Wood works well to
start your Flame Genie. Do not use any volatile flammable liquids such as gasoline.
The special flame pattern will not start until the inner cylinder walls become hot enough to heat the air be-
tween the inner and outer cylinders, and start the gravitational flow. You will enjoy watching it start, and go
completely around the ring. This will take about five minutes.
After enjoying the flames from your initial load of wood pellets, when the fire starts to die down as the wood
pellets are consumed, replenish the wood pellets using a small metal scoop, or similar device. BUT DO NOT
suffocate the remaining flame with the new wood pellets, which will cause the new pellets to smoke exces-
sively until the pellets re-ignite. Learning this trick will improve your enjoyment.
At the end of your Flame Genie burn, just let the fire go out. Be cautious of live coals that may look like ash,
to avoid being burned. In a relatively few minutes the coals will have gone out leaving a very limited amount
of ash on the grate, and the Flame Genie will be cooled. Just shake out the remaining ash through the grate
and put away your Flame Genie. Make sure everything is cool before storing.
*** WARNING: DO NOT USE FLAME GENIE ON A WOODEN OR COMPOSITE DECK! ***
