Heat Logs or Briquettes: What’s the Difference?

When it comes to choosing the right wood fuel for your stove, burner, or fireplace, you might find yourself trying to decide between our Heat Logs or Wood Briquettes. Both options are great for a warm and eco-friendly fire, but they have some distinct differences that could make one more suitable for your needs than the other. Let’s dive into the key factors to help you decide which option is best for you.

WOODLETS HEAT LOGS – ROUNDED TO PERFECTION

Long, Slow Burn for Overnight Comfort

Size & Weight

• Dimensions: Each log measures 290mm x 90mm diameter – round in shape.
• Weight: 2kg per log, with 5 logs per pack, making the total pack weight 10kg.

Woodlots Heat Logs are designed for a slow, long-lasting burn, perfect for overnight heating. Their dense composition allows them to provide consistent heat over an extended period, which is ideal for maintaining warmth through the night. The round shape ensures a steady burn, and the 2kg weight per log contributes to a longer-lasting fire.

Best For…

If you’re looking for something that will keep your home warm through the night or during a long, cosy evening by the fire, Heat Logs are your go-to. The slow burn time helps to reduce the frequency of needing to add fuel, making them a low-maintenance choice for those who want a hands-off approach to heating.

WOODLETS BRIQUETTES – THE BEST BURNING BRIQUETTE IN BRITAIN

Faster, More Efficient Burn for Daily Use

Size & Weight

• Dimensions: Each briquette is 300mm x 75mm x 75mm.
• Weight: Roughly 1.6kg per briquette, with 6 briquettes per pack, totaling 10kg.

Woodlet briquettes are ideal for those who need a quicker, more intense burn. The greater surface area of the briquette allows it to burn faster, making it better suited for a daily burn rather than overnight heating. If you’re looking for a fire that heats up quickly and doesn’t require the same level of slow, steady burn that Heat Logs provide, Briquettes are a good choice.

Best For…

Briquettes are great for everyday use, where a fast burn time is needed to warm up a room quickly. If you’re after something that burns hotter and faster, especially for a quick heat-up during the day, Briquettes are the better option.
