Outdoor Diesel Kerosene Smudge Pot Heater

Where Can a Smudge Pot Direct Smudge Pot Be Used?

Smudge pots are an amazing addition to any track, whether it's for kids' sports like BMX, at the moto track, or even while camping for NASCAR events. They help keep those cold nights warm and more enjoyable. These portable devices are easy to pack along in the trailer or truck bed, and diesel fuel is readily available on the way to your destination.

Smudge pots are also fantastic for camping in the woods. They are simple to transport and do not require constant tending like a wood fire. When using a smudge pot, you can go to bed without smelling like campfire smoke and stay warmer than if you used a propane pit.

While one might think smudge pots are unnecessary in a backyard setting, they actually make an amazing addition. If you enjoy spending nights outdoors with friends or family, or even while grilling, these devices provide a great amount of heat without the need for constant supervision.

How Do Smudge Pots Work?

The simplest explanation is that you load fuel into a round base and burn it, producing heat for the surrounding area. Due to the nature of how these devices release heat through a chimney, they can warm whole areas with relatively little fuel.

Smudge pots hold approximately 7 gallons of fuel, and we recommend using diesel, kerosene, or even cooking oil as a clean-burning option. They will run for about 1.5-2 hours per gallon of fuel, but gasoline should never be used.

What is a Smudge Pot?

A smudge pot is a portable device with a container for some form of fuel (never gasoline). This fuel can be one of many different types, including cooking oil, diesel fuel, and kerosene, and burns slowly. The heat escapes through a chimney at the top, warming the surrounding area. This makes them the perfect option for camping or hunting, where you may need to stay still for long periods. Smudge pots are also known as orchard heaters or diesel heaters, and they can help protect orchards and vineyards from frost by providing a blanket of heat around the trees and keeping the ground warm, all without producing a lot of smoke.
