Good quality heat logs, like Hotties XL Heat Logs , are extremely efficient and generate an incredible amount of heat. They contain very little moisture, leaving your wood burning appliances clean with minimal ash. You can use our heat logs on their own or to complement your existing firewood supply.

Hotties XL – Hotties are made up of the sawdust, wood chips and renewable materials which are compressed into heat logs, with no additives or binding agents.
