Pellet torch – patio stoves, powered by wood pellets

Lighting a fire in the garden is something wonderful. The pleasant smell, the wonderful play of flames and the cozy crackle are a great way to end the day. But what happens when flying sparks or thick smoke make the relaxation fly away?

The solution: a pellet torch that is fired with standard wood pellets. Almost completely without smoke and sparks! Whether it’s a barbecue, a wedding or a cozy glass of wine in the garden – the pellet torch from Steel & Fire guarantees a wow effect. Also ideal as a sustainable Christmas tree replacement, as it can be used year after year.

How it works: First, the pellet torch is filled with standard pellets. A grill igniter is placed under the grate for ignition. After approx. 10-15 minutes, a flame rises through the entire glass tube and lights up the surroundings. Burning time approx. 1.5 hours with a full pellet tank.

Technical data

Pellet torches are a modern and environmentally friendly way of generating cozy warmth outdoors. They offer a convenient alternative to conventional fireplaces and are particularly popular in gardens, on patios and in outdoor restaurant areas. Here are the technical specifications of a typical pellet torch in detail:

  • Fuel: The pellet torch uses wood pellets with a diameter of 6 mm. These pellets are a sustainable choice as they are made from renewable wood and produce low CO2 emissions.
  • Heat output: The pellet torch has a heat output of approx. 4 kW. This is enough to generate a pleasant warmth around the torch and create a cozy atmosphere.
  • Burning time: With a full tank, the pellet torch can burn for approx. 1.5 hours. This is enough for many outdoor events and provides a long-lasting heat source.
  • Dimensions: The pellet torch has a height of approx. 1.7 m. This size makes it possible to enjoy the heat at a comfortable height and is therefore ideal for outdoor seating areas.
  • Weight: With glass tube the pellet torch weighs approx. 15 kg, without glass tube only 10 kg. The lower weight without the glass tube makes transportation and handling particularly easy.

They are an environmentally friendly alternative to conventional outdoor gas or charcoal heaters, as they use renewable energy sources and are virtually smoke-free. The use of pellet torches not only contributes to outdoor heating, but also creates a cozy atmosphere for social gatherings and romantic evenings outdoors. With their practical technical features, pellet torches are an attractive option for anyone who wants to enjoy the warmth and charm of an open fire.
