Abstract: The present invention relates to spark traps/arrestors that are unproved relative to those that currently exist. For example, the present invention relates to a spark arrestor/trap that comprises a plurality of features that allows sparks/embers to be more effectively extinguished. The spark trap/arrestor of the present invention has at least two of vanes, conical devices and u-turns that allows for sufficient oxygen and a tortured path that is sufficiently long so as to effectively extinguish sparks and/or embers that enter the system. Alternatively, the system relates to a spark arrestor that comprises all of vanes, conical devices and u-turns that allows for sufficient oxygen and a tortured path that is sufficiently long so as to effectively extinguish sparks and/or embers that enter the system. In one embodiment, the various pans of the spark arrestor can he separated allowing for easy cleaning of the system.
