A fire display assembly has a burner tray with a porous non-combustible material located in the burner tray positioned adjacent, on or in a non-combustible structure. A source of a combustible liquid positioned a distance from the burner tray is provided with conduits for flowing liquid fuel between the sources and trays. The conduits can include an adjustable valve to control the amount of fluid flowing there-through. The valves can be preprogrammed to provide a preset flow over time or controlled from a remote location by a flow controller. Ignited fuel from the porous non-combustible material provides the appearance of a burning surface on the non-combustible structure. The arrangement provides a continuous but variable feed of fuel to the porous non-combustible material and allows the fuel feed rate to be varied to provide a variable flame height or to vary the location of the flame in a controlled manner
An improved assembly for creating a fire display from a liquid fuel comprising:
A method of providing a variable height, continuously burning liquid fuel flame comprising
An assembly for creating a fire display, the assembly comprising one or more burner trays, a porous non-combustible material positioned in the burner trays, the burner trays located on, in or adjacent one or more non-combustible structures, and one or more liquid fuel sources positioned at a remote location to said burner trays, one or more conduits connecting the liquid fuel sources to the burner trays, one or more of the conduits having a variable liquid flow control apparatus and a controller operatively connected to the variable control apparatus so as to control the flow of fuel there-through in a preset manner or a controlled random manner, wherein once the fuel that is wicked into the porous non-combustible material is ignited, reducing or increasing the amount of fuel delivered through the adjustable feed assembly results in a variable flame height without extinguishing the flame.
