Safety Tip #1:
For consumer mortar shells we recommend your audience at least 140 feet from the launch area.

Safety Tip #2:
Wait about 2 minutes before launching another shell out of the same mortar. This allows time for the tube to cool.

Rack Saftey
How is important is safety? Crazy question! We hear way too many stories of people getting injured because the lack of safety. We can't emphasize safety enough! Please be safe and make sure your tubes are securely placed in a mortar rack or buried in ground (not common for consumer shells).

The mortar is to placed on a hard surface or buried on the ground. Burying consumer mortars is not common (we don't know of anyone that does it for consumer mortars), but it may be an option for you. Since most people don't want to dig up their mortars after the show it's much easier to build a rack. As shown in the above picture you need to put your mortar on a hard surface, such as a 1/2" piece of plywood. Suspending your mortars in air using U-straps is forbidden!

PyroBOOM wants you to enjoy fireworks and light up the sky, but you must be far away from the tubes when you launch! Don't ever look into a tube that has a mortar shell in, or it did not go off. Be patient! Wait several minutes or pour water down the tube. Keep your hands and face away!

PyroBOOM is not responsible for your lack of safety. Our tubes are good, but never assume any tube is flawless and will protect you from harm.

All of our tubes are made of the industry standard HDPE pipe (made in the USA). Check out the pictures. Don't hesitate to email us with any questions you might have. Let's light up the sky!
