Apparatus for producing a fire special effect

This device creates a fake fire effect using steam. It works by having a housing with a slot where steam comes out, generated by an internal steam manifold. The claims specify that the housing includes a hole to draw in air, and this air hole is placed higher than a condensate drain hole when the device is in use.

Why it matters: Filed before widespread 3D printing. Custom internal manifold designs for optimal steam and air mixing are now much easier and cheaper to fabricate.

Status: Not in forceListed as no longer active. The specific reason is not in the record we hold.
How hard to build: ModerateSteam generator, custom manifold, condensate management
