Previous Page Only burn one firelog at a time. The wax component of the product produces twice the BTU heat value per pound of wood, allowing one duraflame firelog to provide a fire equivalent to several pieces of wood. Burning more than one log at a time could result in too large or too hot a fire in your fireplace.
Position logs properly.
When building a fire, place logs at the rear of the fireplace, on an adequate supporting grate. Do not use pokers or tongs to move duraflame firelogs. Unlike firewood, firelogs are designed to burn in a controlled manner and do not require tending. Use of tongs or pokers can cause a firelog to break apart and expose more surface area to the air - increasing the burn rate and resulting in a shorter fire. Do not use in wood stoves or BBQs.
