BUILD A FIRE WITH ECOLOGS

To start your fire we recommend following the steps below while keeping in mind that if the full log is too long 

for your indoor fireplace, stove or heater, that you break each log in half and continue to stack them step for step. 

This will allow you to use the logs at your own discretion.

Step 1 Draft

Step 1

Place 2 Eco Logs between 10-15cm apart from each other on a clean and stable surface. Place a firelighter in the middle of the logs. Light your firelighter.

Step 2 Draft

Step 2

Place 3 Eco Logs on top of the first layer with enough space between each log to allow for the flame to burn through.

Step 4 Draft

Step 4

Allow the Eco Logs to reduce to coals as you would using traditional wood or charcoal, and add half logs as needed.
