This entity is not in the FGD by default.
It should not be put directly in a map because it can only be configured through code. Use an env_fire with damage disabled or info_particle_system instead.

_firesmoke is a point entity available in all Source Source games. This is the group of particle effects created by an env_fire, including the flames. It does no damage. If a fire shouldn't damage things, or is unable to, this entity could be used directly to save an edict. env_fire does however allow much more control over the flame.

Note.pngNote:This entity does not precache the fire assets on its own, so it won't be visible unless an env_fire exists elsewhere in the map.
