About Us

Hi, I’m James, I’ve been using traditional open fireplaces and wood burning stoves for many years, and I’ve also recently bought a bioethanol fireplace. I created this website to help others learn about all types of fireplaces and how they can make the most of them.

See what I use and my recommended tools here.

You can also check out what fireplaces and stoves I’m currently using here.
