After each use, allow the fire pit to cool completely. Remove the base to access the ash pan, dispose of the ashes, and wipe down the body.

Question 10

What makes the Summit 27™ a smokeless fire pit

Summit 27™  uses Solo Stove’s Signature 360˚ Airflow Design ®  system to create secondary combustion that re-burns smoke before it escapes. This results in a cleaner burn with taller, brighter flames and significantly less smoke than a traditional wood fire.

Question 11

Why choose a smokeless outdoor fire pit?

Accepted Answer

A smokeless outdoor fire pit means less smoke in your face, less odor on clothes and hair, and fewer airborne particles—creating a cleaner, more comfortable, and more enjoyable fire experience.

Question 12

How do I light this easy-light fire pit?

Accepted Answer

Summit 27™ is designed for fast, reliable starts. Stack small, dry split wood so the center remains open, then use Solo Stove Fire Starter Gel™ with the Quick-Strike Base Plate™ for consistent, hassle-free ignition. A small amount of startup smoke is normal and clears quickly.

Question 13

Is the Fire Starter Gel a different formulation from the existing Solo gel fuel?

Accepted Answer

Yes. It’s an all-new formula designed to pair with Solo Stove’s Easy-Light ignition systems. This family-friendly gel pours without splashing and delivers quick, consistent ignition without flare-ups. Solo Stove Fire Starter Gel™ can be used with any Solo Stove smokeless fire pit.

Question 14

Is the Summit 27™ able to be used without the Fire Starter Gel, or does the stove design only light with it?

Accepted Answer

Summit 27™ can be lit with or without Solo Stove Fire Starter Gel™. Traditional lighting methods work, but using the gel with the Quick-Strike Base Plate™ makes ignition easier, faster, and more consistent.

Question 15

How much wood does this smokeless fire pit take?

Accepted Answer

Start with 5-6 larger, dry split logs arranged around the Quick Strike™ Cone. Add wood gradually, keeping logs below the vent holes to maintain optimal airflow and smokeless performance.

Question 16

What kind of wood should I use in my smokeless fire pit?

Accepted Answer

Use dry, split hardwoods like oak or maple. Wet or soft woods create more smoke and reduce efficiency.

Question 17

Is the Summit 27™ a portable fire pit?

Accepted Answer

Summit 27™ is designed to live in the backyard as a larger, more permanent fire pit. While it can be repositioned once fully cooled, its size and weight make it best suited for stay-put gathering spaces.

Question 18

Can I use this smokeless fire pit on my deck?

Depending on outside temperatures and how often cooling modes are used, you may need to replenish ice after a couple of hours. Even after active cooling winds down, Windchill’s thick, foam-insulated walls continue to keep drinks and food cold for hours. When used as a traditional cooler with the lid closed, Windchill can hold ice for days.
