Product Information

Parke, who also sells kiln-dried logs nationally from the non-profit co-op’s Scottish base, says stove manufacturers recommend users burn wood with a moisture content of less than 20%. The Drax coal power station burns pellets shipped from the US on the basis that the carbon savings are more than 80% once the life cycle of the trees are taken into account.

The terms heats logs and briquettes are often used interchangeably and often refer to the same type of product. That is because of our patented technology compresses wood waste so densely that the logs will burn red hot throughout producing the most efficient burn available in manufactured firelogs today. Keep these handy near a wood-burning fireplace, stove, or outdoor fire pit, and start wood fires easily.Logs sold in the UK generally have much higher levels of moisture – 20% in well-seasoned wood, and up to 50% in other cases, Parke says. Parke says some of the briquettes come from the Verdo plant 90 miles away in Grangemouth, but the majority arrive by ship from eastern Europe – particularly Latvia and Estonia.

Firelogs from Home Fire Prest Logs help homeowners heat more efficiently due to the efficient burning nature of the compressed firelogs.

According to the FireSafe Council, commercial fire logs emit 50 to 70 percent less carbon monoxide than firewood. This is because, unlike regular heat logs, they do not expand in size and have a special, roll-preventing shape. If you’re settling into bed or about to run off to work, you will want to burn an extended night fire.

Keeping the coals together in the front of the stove provides a strong heat source to ignite the logs. While some fire logs claim to burn for as long as 6 hours, the average fire log burns for 2 to 4 hours.They burn at such a high temperature that new users are advised to exercise caution when using them for the first time. Those looking for an extended hangout in front of the fire might find Pine Mountain’s 4-Hour Fire Log to be just the ticket. Because they have so little moisture, in comparison to logs, they are much cleaner burning and you don’t get the tar problems associated with unseasoned firewood.

Nearly all the materials in our products are made from renewable resources so you can be sure that your choice is a clean one. You’ll get more longer lasting heat, no sparks and less smoke from kiln dried logs, whereby most of the moisture has been taken out during the drying process. For optimal results, Night Briquettes need to be used in wood stoves, multi-fuel stoves, chimneys, or log burners.Because wood briquettes differ from one another in production technology, the raw material they're made of, their density, and their shape. Some types of fire logs can be combined with real wood logs to enhance the fire experience, but always read the usage instructions before combining the two. Break - We strongly recommend you break these briquettes in half (or less for very small stoves) because they do expand whilst burning and you don't want them to overfill the fire. Depending on the blend of wood materials used in their composition, they can possess a wide variety of beneficial properties, many of which far exceed those of traditional firewood.
