Product description
The Atago is a multifunctional all-rounder. It is perfect for your outdoor cooking adventures whether you
are grilling, baking, cooking or using it as a fire bowl for a nice end to the day. This product is intended
for outdoor use only. The design of the Petromax Atago is based on the chimney effect – the air flow is
directed vertically to concentrate the heat. As a result, only a very few briquettes are needed. They will start
to glow quickly thanks to this effect and the Atago is ready for use in no time. The Atago also stores heat
for a very long time. When using the Atago as a fire bowl you benefit from a highly effective combustion
principle – the wood boiler principle. The fire quickly gets going thanks to the ventilation holes at the
bottom. The resulting flue gases are directed upwards through the double wall and are combusted at the
point where they escape through the inner holes. The double-walled construction of the Petromax Atago
ensures optimum oxygen supply throughout the combustion chamber. Thanks to secondary combustion
smoke formation is minimal, the fire stays alive for a long time and very little ash is produced. The charcoal
grate provided with the Atago eases placing firewood and coals inside.
