NORLIVA vs. regular fire pits

Explained in 3 steps
Smokeless fire, here's how it works:
💨 1. Improved airflow
- Cool air flows in through the lower openings of the fire pit.
- This air continuously supplies the fire with oxygen, even when ash accumulates.
✨ 2. Double wall technology
- Air enters a cavity at the bottom of the fire pit and flows into the double wall.
- The inner and outer shells are heated by the fire, causing the air between the walls to rise.
🔥 3. Secondary combustion
- The heated air exits through holes along the edge of the bowl.
- This hot, pressurized air mixes with the smoke and causes a secondary combustion.

Frequently Asked Questions
If you have any further questions, we're happy to help you personally!
Are the Norliva fire pits really smokeless?
Our fire bowls are nearly smokeless, meaning they produce significantly less smoke than conventional fire pits. Thanks to the double-wall technology and secondary combustion, even the smallest wood particles are efficiently burned, minimizing smoke production.
However, it’s important to note that after lighting the fire, it may take a few minutes for the airflow to fully develop and for the smoke to disappear. During this startup phase, there may be some light smoke, but it will quickly subside once optimal airflow is achieved.
Which firewood should I use?
Hardwoods like beech, oak, or ash produce less smoke when burned compared to softwoods like spruce or pine. This is because hardwoods have a higher density and contain less resin, which reduces smoke.
It is important to use dry wood to ensure optimal combustion and minimal smoke.
Can smokeless fire pits be used in smaller gardens too?
Yes, due to lower smoke production, smokeless fire pits are especially suitable for smaller gardens or patios, as they are less bothersome to neighbors and are also safer in confined spaces.
Are smokeless fire pits more environmentally friendly?
Yes, smokeless fire pits are more environmentally friendly because they emit less smoke and harmful emissions. This helps improve air quality and reduces fine particulate pollution.
Does a smokeless fire pit require special maintenance?
No, smoke-free fire pits don't require any special maintenance, but a cover to protect against rain is highly recommended to increase their lifespan.
Regular cleaning is also important. The minimal soot and ash buildup makes it easy to keep clean. It's advisable to empty the bowl after each use—with the convenient ash drawer, this takes just 2 minutes.
How much heat does a smokeless fire pit produce?
Smokeless fire pits produce just as much heat as traditional fire pits, but the heat is channeled upward more efficiently. This results in a safer flame with fewer sparks. So you can enjoy the fire worry-free and also benefit from a low-smoke atmosphere.
Can smokeless fire pits be used indoors?
No, even smokeless fire pits should only be used outdoors, as they still emit carbon monoxide and other gases that can be dangerous indoors.
Why are smokeless fire pits more expensive than regular ones?
The advanced technology and high-quality materials used in smokeless fire pits make them more expensive. The higher price is offset by the comfort, efficiency, and eco-friendliness.
Is assembling a smokeless fire pit complicated?
No, assembly is very easy and only takes a few minutes. The fire pits are delivered in just a few parts and only require simply screwing on the legs.
Can I place the smokeless fire pit on my lawn or wooden deck?
Yes, you can definitely use your smokeless fire pit on the lawn or a wooden deck. The area beneath the fire pit stays cool, so it doesn’t pose a risk to the surface.
Make sure to place the fire pit on a stable surface and always maintain a safe distance.
