I have found that some of the flamethrower vent tube effect can be prevented by putting a silicon tube 5-6" long on the vent. After it gets hot, this gets the vapor far enough away from the flame that it rarely ignites. The tube extension also gives you something cool to the touch to grab onto when you need to pull it out.

We’re in the middle of an Indian Summer this week, had snow a week or so ago, now it’s been hitting low 70’s all week (21 C). Kids were asking me to take the pool out today :D
Hope you did!
Haha, no, all buried in the shed for winter. I let them play with a few buckets of dirty carrot water in their sandbox and they were happy :D
