It put out some heat to slightly warm the small room but not enough to keep a larger living space warm. Still, this scented fire log is long on ambience. The combination of aroma and steady flames creates a cozy feeling when it’s cold and blustery outside. Artificial fire logs provide some heat but are not known for producing intense heat—the type required to heat an ample living space. If heating a household is the priority, seek out natural wood. Nearly all varieties of seasoned hardwood that are appropriate for fireplace burning achieve higher, longer-lasting temperatures.

Most fire logs included in our list are advertised as producing fewer carbon monoxide emissions than traditional wood. This reduces toxins in the home and limits the amount of pesky, harmful smoke floating around. These artificial logs come in various quantities and contain natural materials like real hardwoods, waxes, biomass fiber, sawdust, molasses, shells, and nuts. Duraflame produces a wide range of fireplace products, including this 2.5-pound fire log, which is about half the size of some of the other products we tested. We burned this one in an old wood-burning stove that we use to heat a large shop. It was easy to light by following the instructions: folding out the seam on the paper wrapper and then lighting it along the seam using a single match. The entire log was on fire within 5 minutes, and it burned for just over an hour. When buying partner items like this one, your contract of sale will be with our Range Plus Partner instead of us.

An instant way to get your open fire or wood-burning stove alight, by placing the firelog in the fireplace or stove and simply lighting the bag. If you have more flexibility in the hips, you can slide your left shin forward directly below the right to increase the challenge; otherwise, keep the left heel beside the right hip. If you’re tight in the hips, you may find that bringing the ankle to the outer knee is difficult or uncomfortable. In this case, simply sit with your shins crossed in Sukhasana (Easy Pose). This creosote-cleaning fire log is advertised to burn with 80 percent fewer emissions than cordwood. The lighting process is slightly different than with the other logs we tested. Rather than placing the Creosote Buster in the grate and lighting it, we started a regular fire with wood, and after 30 minutes, we set the Creosote Buster on top of the burning pile. It took about 5 minutes to catch fire fully and burned for just over 1 hour. It depends on the log. Some are suitable for use in stoves, and some aren’t. We found that the instructions on the wrapper always mentioned where we could burn the log and where we couldn’t. Q. How long do fire logs burn for? Some fire log manufacturers use compositions that offer more heat than others. Some of the hottest-burning fire logs can increase the temperature in a room, but the degree of increased warmth will vary depending on room size and insulation in the walls. Chimney Maintenance

While Pine Mountain StarterLoggs aren’t made to produce a fire on their own, we found they helped get a wood fire to start burning. The chunk we started the fire with burned out in about 15 minutes, but we had a roaring fire by then. Keep these handy near a wood-burning fireplace, stove, or outdoor fire pit, and start wood fires easily. This was a challenging fire log to test because we’d just had the chimney sweep out to clean the chimney a few weeks before we tested the fire logs. We had no absolute way of knowing whether the Creosote Buster was effective or not at cleaning the chimney, but we suspect it helped reduce some soot buildup. We tested it after we’d tested all the other fire logs and did a visual inspection of the chimney before and after using the Creosote Buster. We think the chimney looked slightly cleaner after use.
