Product Information

Full details

The Pegdev Fire Logs - PDL 72 X are designed for users of open fires, multi-fuel stoves, wood burners, and similar appliances seeking an efficient and clean-burning fuel. Their key benefit is a high heat output with minimal residue due to their dense hardwood composition and low moisture content. A potential caveat for new users is that their density requires a slightly greater initial airflow to establish a strong flame.

FAQs

Are these briquettes suitable for indoor fireplaces?

Yes, they are designed for use on open fires, multi-fuel stoves, and wood burners, making them suitable for most indoor fireplace applications.

Do these briquettes contain any glues or chemical additives?

No, the briquettes are made from 100% hardwood and are molded under high pressure without the need for any glues or binding agents.

How long does a briquette typically burn for?

Burn time varies depending on the appliance, airflow, and quantity used. However, due to their density and low moisture content, they generally burn longer and provide more consistent heat than average kiln-dried logs.

Can I use these in a smokeless zone?

Yes, these briquettes are 100% carbon dioxide neutral and burn cleanly, making them suitable for use in designated smokeless zones.

What is the heat output (Kw/h) of these briquettes?

Each briquette provides an exceptional high clean burn of approximately 5.13Kw/h, which is about 20% higher than average kiln-dried logs.

How much ash do these briquettes produce?

They produce a very low ash residue of approximately 0.65%, meaning less mess and easier cleanup after use.

What type of wood is used to make these briquettes?

They are made using kiln-dried hickory, beech, and ash hardwood timbers.

Troubleshooting

Briquettes are difficult to ignite or burn poorly

Ensure sufficient initial airflow. Open the air vents on your appliance fully when first lighting the briquettes. Check that the fire bed has enough established embers to ignite them properly.

Fire is too intense initially

Reduce the airflow. Once the briquettes are burning strongly, gradually close the air vents to control the burn rate and prolong the burn time.

Packaging is damaged

If the shrink wrap is damaged, the briquettes may absorb moisture. Try to use them as soon as possible, or store them in a very dry environment. If significantly damp, they may not burn efficiently.

Pros and Cons

Pros

  • High heat output for efficient warming
  • Clean burning, suitable for smokeless zones
  • Low ash residue for easy cleanup
  • No additives or binding agents used
  • Durable and easy to handle with no dust or crumbling

Cons

  • Requires slightly more initial airflow to ignite
  • Density means they may burn longer than traditional logs, requiring different fire management
  • Not suitable for open fire pits without a grate due to their shape and density

Setup, Compatibility & Care Instructions

Setup:

  1. Initial Airflow: When first placing the briquettes onto a bed of established embers, ensure your appliance's air vents are fully open. This provides the necessary oxygen for them to ignite and burn effectively.
  2. Established Burn: Once a strong flame is established, you can gradually reduce the airflow to control the burn rate and optimize heat output and duration.

Compatibility:

These briquettes are compatible with a wide range of appliances:

  • Open fires (with appropriate grate)
  • Multi-fuel stoves
  • Wood burners
  • Chimineas
  • Other similar solid fuel appliances

Care:

  • Storage: Store the briquettes in a dry, well-ventilated area, away from moisture. The shrink-wrap packaging helps maintain their low moisture content, but it's best to keep them indoors or in a dry shed.
  • Handling: Handle with care to avoid puncturing the packaging. Due to their density, they are not dusty or prone to crumbling, making them easy to manage.
  • Disposal: Dispose of the minimal ash residue responsibly, following local guidelines for fireplace ash.
