Hot Box ® Firestarter is new, innovative and revolutionary.
Having installed wood-burning appliances for over a decade, a common problem prevails, lighting the perfect fire! Often, this meant that we were called upon to provide a demonstration, sometimes more than once. We got thinking…. how could we solve this problem?

- Place in your appliance
- Light the Hot Box ® Firestarter at the bottom using a match or lighter.
- Leave, and then rake embers.
- Add further fuel of your choice.

- Pop out the vent holes at the base of the box.
- Pop out the chimney opening on the top of the box.
- Place in your appliance with the air vents in an open position.
- Light the box through the hole at the base using a match or lighter.
- Leave the door of your appliance slight ajar during initial lighting (if a closed appliance)
- The fuel elements inside the box will begin to ignite.
- Leave for 5 minutes for the elements inside to fully ignite.
- The outer box will remain almost intact and retain the heat.
- After approximately 8 minutes (appliance depending) rake embers and add further fuel.
- Start with smaller dry logs and build up your fire using larger dry logs.
| There is nowhere to light it? | You need to push out the front and back perforated slots along with the chimney at the top. This will allow you to use a match/lighter at the front opening to ignite. |
| It’s smoking | There is no smoke without fire! The product is internally combusting and will produce smoke through the chimney and available air vents, be patient. |
| I don’t think it’s doing anything | So long as you have removed the air vents and lit the firestarter it will be doing its job, wait until the flames appear and the box starts to burn. |
| I added fuel and now it’s gone out | Ensure you have allowed time for the firestarter to provide a bed of embers, Then, build your fuel up slowly so as not to extinguish the fire. Ensure you have used dry logs, start small and build. |
| I can’t see any flames? | As the components inside start to burn the flames will intensify. Eventually, the flames will start to come from the chimney before the outer box burns away. |
| I left it over 10 minutes and nothing? | If you have had it lit for 10 or more minutes and the Firestarter does not show signs of flames or burning then it may of not been lit correctly. Use a match or lighter at the base and allow more air. In stoves, leave the appliance door ajar. |
| Can I pick it up once lit? | For safety we don’t recommend touching the firestarter once lit it will be hot, only approach if you are confident that it has extinguished. |
