MDL Instant Light Smokeless Fire Logs - Case of 12 Logs

Product Information

This means they can be carried around the body and cause damage to other organs. A review of current research has linked to PM to conditions including: The Breeo Y-Series comes from the brand that introduced the first smokeless fire pit to the market. It's smaller and lighter than previous models with an added handle on the body—it's positioned to balance the fire pit when carried in one hand at your side. Most likely, you want a fire pit that adds ambiance to your outdoor space, provides warmth on chilly evenings, and maybe even grills up some tasty meals. What you don’t want is a ton of smoke that leaves your eyes watering and your clothes smelling like a weekend camping trip. What you’re looking for is a smokeless fire pit.

In testing, the body drew air in at the base to feed the fire both at the bottom and along the top lip, functioning as intended to reduce smoke. Aside from when we were initially lighting the fire, we noted nearly no smoke at all.For example, they report that figures on domestic wood-burning include pollutants released by open fires and unregulated burning (e.g., barbeques). Smokeless Log Fire, Burns for 2-3 Hours, Light Wrapper at Both Ends, Instant Light Fire Log, Simply Light the Bag, Smokeless and odourless fire, No kindling or firelighters required, Suitable for use in smoke controlled areas Most smokeless fire pits burn wood. You’ll want to use seasoned wood—that means it has had time to dry out over six or more months. Wood that’s still green or wet will burn more slowly and may produce smoke even if you use it in a smokeless fire pit. Sleek, fuss-free and distinctly Danish, Morso’s more modern curvy wood burners are ideal for contemporary schemes where a classic model would look out of place. The tall cylinder design of the 6140 means that it doesn’t have to live in a fireplace setting, so could be a focal point almost anywhere around a room. A choice of bases is testament to that – there’s the option of a low base for smaller rooms, a pedestal base for extra impact or a log store base with space to keep your fuel dry and to hand. The most striking detail of the X Series 24 is its corten finish—it’s designed to oxidize, creating a natural finish that protects the steel rather than continuing to degrade it. It weighs more than twice as much as most of the other models we tested, which means it’s not exactly portable—but it’s built to last.

This will give you a figure that can be matched to the heat output for a wood burner, which is shown in kW. By choosing a suitable wood burner for the size of your room, you’ll be able to prevent the damage caused by the excess heat of overfiring – when there’s too much fuel or oxygen in the stove – or under-running it, which can result in higher emissions as well as damage to the flue and wood burner. What does Ecodesign Ready mean?

How we tested

Wood burning stoves also release particulate matter (PM). These include particulates of carbon and tar, which are small enough to be suspended in the air. Due to the size of PM2.5 and PM0.1, these particles enter your lungs when they are inhaled, and then cross from your lungs into your bloodstream. It seemed to radiate a lot of heat out at an angle thanks to the bowl shape and created a warm zone in the shape of an inverted, squat cone, even when the flames weren’t reaching out of the fire pit. When they were, we could feel even more heat radiating straight out from them. Solo Stove’s Bonfire 2.0 is an update to the Bonfire we previously tested, now including a removable ash pan. While its smokeless performance remains unchanged, the ash pan does add about five pounds to the overall weight.

A slight disadvantage of the concave shape is that, although we fit 14-inch logs in it, they wouldn’t drop to the bottom. This made it more difficult to fill the fire pit and keep a bigger fire going. For the most efficient, eco-friendly burn, always fuel a wood burner with dry firewood. Ideally, the wood should be kiln-dried or have a maximum moisture content of 20%. How much should I spend on a wood burner?Lastly, we let the fires burn down to ash so we could determine how easy clean-up was after the blaze. We also noted things like whether or not the pits were easy to carry or move around, as well as their weight and dimensions. However, also on the increase are wide-spread concerns about the potential health and environmental impacts of wood-burning stoves, both for you and the air around your home. The exact extent of these impacts remain unclear. We found the interior to be relatively cavernous, which means more wood fit inside, and with that you get bigger fires and more heat. Other than the first couple of minutes when we lit the kindling, the X Series was virtually smokeless, as promised.
