PRODUCT DESCRIPTION
The Petromax Fire Kettle made of aluminium is
the outdoor kettle for on the way. The fire is lit
in the fire bowl with chopped wood, branches
and barks. Thanks to the stack effect, the heat

goes up inside the kettle and heats the water
(Figure 1). The steam whistle on the cap sounds
when the water boils. This is how you have
boiling hot water at your disposal with very
little effort even on the way and in all wea-
thers. Thanks to the three feet, your Petromax
Fire Kettle is steady as well as environmentally
friendly, leaving no traces from the fire behind.
