BIO BLOCKS can be used any place you would use traditional firewood.

• Wood Stoves
• Fireplaces
• Chimineas
• Fire Pits
• Campfires
• Pizza Ovens – Used by both Chefs in restaurants and individuals who have smaller wood-fired ovens.

BIO BLOCKS are very versatile. No additional modifications are needed when used in a wood stove. It can be used alone or mixed with firewood.

Note: BIO BLOCKS cannot be used in a pellet stove.

BIO BLOCKS are compacted too tight to light with a match. It is designed as a replacement for firewood but is not considered a fire starter.

We suggest starting your fire with a BIO BLOCK Fire Starter.

OPTION I

1. Stack four BIO BLOCKS in a teepee.
2. Leaving a one inch space, build a second teepee of four in front of the first.
3. Divide a BIO BLOCK Fire Starter into four pieces.
4. Place one piece in the center of the teepee and ignite.
5. Establish a strong burn before adding additional BIO BLOCKS.
6. After your fire is established, the damper on your wood stove can be adjusted for a long, slow burn.

OPTION II

1. Place four BIO BLOCKS flat in a wood burning device, leaving a space between blocks for airflow.
2. Place three BIO BLOCKS over the spaces making a second row.
3. Place one BIO BLOCK on top to complete your pyramid.
4. Divide a BIO BLOCK Fire Starter into four pieces.
5. Place one piece in the center and ignite.
6. Establish a strong burn before adding additional BIO BLOCKS.
7. After your fire is established, the damper on your wood stove can be adjusted for a long, slow burn.

Note: BIO BLOCKS are not fire starters. Because BIO BLOCKS are tightly compressed and do not contain chemicals, or any binder, the blocks will not ignite by holding a match or torch directly to a block!

• You will receive what you pay for every time. There are always 88 packs of BIO BLOCKS on a pallet, which equals one ton. The measurements of firewood can be questionable if sold in quantities less than one cord.
• BIO BLOCKS have a moisture content of 8.5% according to research at the University of Buffalo in New York. This accounts for the long, hot burn of BIO BLOCKS. Firewood is considered dry at 20%.
• One ton of BIO BLOCKS = 1 1/2 cords of firewood. The consistent size, low moisture, tight compression and blend of kiln-dried hardwoods provides approximately 14 – 18 Mil BTU’s per ton.
• BIO BLOCKS provide a warm, even heat. Never worry about what the thermostat is set at again!
