On a chilly evening, nothing beats the relaxing, blood-pressure-reducing benefits of watching flames flicker away in one of the best log burners. Unfortunately, similar to using the best chimineas, it’s been proven that microscopic sooty particles can be released, which is why wood burners have had some bad press of late.
Research has uncovered a link between older models and their impact on health and the environment. That’s why modern log burners are manufactured to a different standard, complying with lower emission levels, so you know you won’t fall foul of new environmental laws. Although if you’d rather steer clear of log burners, the best electric heaters and electric blankets can also help to keep you warm, without cranking up the central heating.
