The cool September evenings bring back cosy moments at home. There is nothing like a good fireplace fire or a warm stove to bring back comfort and good company. But before you light the first flame, it is better to plan ahead and get your firebox ready. Here is our practical advice and our Fulgurant products for a worry-free start to the season.

Lighting your fire the easy way

No more crumpled paper and dangerous products such as methylated spirits! With Fulgurant firelighters, starting a fire becomes simple, quick and safe.

  • They catch straight away, even with wood that is being a little awkward.
  • No strong smell and no unwanted residue.
  • Perfect for the fireplace, the wood stove or the end-of-season barbecue.

Tip: just place one or two firelighters under your logs, light them and enjoy!

Firegel: the practical, clean ally

Fulgurant Firegel is an ideal solution for lighting a fire with no black smoke and no drips. Its gel texture makes it very easy to measure out and apply.

  • Suitable for fireplaces as well as stoves.
  • Also useful for stretching out the grilling season: perfect for starting a barbecue cleanly.
  • No unpleasant smell, so you can enjoy the warmth straight away.

Tip: always keep a bottle of Firegel within reach, it is your guarantee of lighting the fire successfully whatever the circumstances.

Looking after your firebox: chimney sweeping is essential

Lighting a fire is all very well, but looking after it is essential. Chimney sweeping lets you:

  • avoid the fire risks linked to soot deposits,
  • improve the draught of your fireplace,
  • reduce how much wood you burn.

On top of the compulsory mechanical sweep, Fulgurant solutions (chimney sweeping logs and powders) are perfect for keeping your flues clean between two visits from a professional. Easy to use, they improve safety and extend the life of your installation.
