C-300 Rincón Glass Fireplace Wood-burning Fireplace

The use of wood for heat production is very cost-effective. This material has a high calorific value at a reasonable price and is very environmentally friendly. Wood is a renewable energy source. A wood-burning fireplace or cooker can increase the energy savings of electricity and gas in the home.

When choosing a fireplace or wood-burning cooker, we must take into account our needs and tastes. We must check the space we have available and which room we want to heat. We need to know the dimensions of the room and where the fireplace or cooker will be located. Depending on the space, we will opt for a larger or smaller fireplace, both for heat production and aesthetics.

The choice of firewood is also very important. There are different types of firewood. Wood from holm oak or holm oak, olive, oak, walnut, pine, fruit trees... Although any type of wood burns well in a good fireplace or cooker, not all woods are suitable for open fires. It is not advisable to use freshly cut wood because it is fresh and damp. The optimum dimensions of firewood are about 50 cm long and between 10 and 15 cm thick.

Avoid wood from coniferous trees, as they do not allow gas to escape from the interior of the wood. Hardwoods do allow the gas to escape more easily and produce a lower frequency of sparks. We advise that an open fireplace should always be watched.
