FAQ

How long do Easy-Logs burn for?

Really there is no accurate answer for this, It all depends on how you measure when it stops burning. However they burn for the same time as good quality very dry Kiln dried hard wood. About 1.5-2 hours. Remember if a log is not burning well it will last for ages and pollute the atmosphere. Its all about heat output and clean burning.

Can I use them in a smoke free zone? 

Yes, they are cleaner than wood, but you need a DEFRA approved stove, same as for wood. But the stoves are up to 85% efficient.

Do you add any binders or additives?

No, Nothing the massive pressure in the production process releases Lignin’s from cell walls sticking the briquette together.

 Do they burn the same as Logs?

Better, just remember they burn hotter so monitor the temperature and air when you first use them. Also don’t poke them, leave them alone.
