Drip System / Return-Stack orchard heater - smudge pot/choofa
« on: July 23, 2021, 08:25:55 am »
Not really a drip system but a non pressured one.

Anyone running one of these with no smoke?

How does the return pipe work?
Do you limit the amount of air intake in the base so it has to suck it through the holes in the first part of the flue and then through the return pipe. Meaning any smoke etc is sucked back down into the burn zone by the return pipe causing it to burn very clean?

Waste Motor Oil / Wanting to make an efficient burner
« on: September 18, 2020, 04:59:30 am »
Hi guys,

I have a brake drum pot belly heater out in the shed and looking to run it on waste oil. Be it motor oil, cooking oil and everything inbetween.

I was hoping to have a drip system without any forced air but after running it I dont think im getting it hot enough as its quite smokey.

Am I able to run a drip system without forced air?

Im not 100% sure how to run it but if i run it slow theres a lack of flames and if I run it fast its a bit smokier.

Attached is my fireplace and burning pot
