10 Must-Haves for Anyone with a Fireplace

The holidays are just around the corner! Whether you are thinking about redecorating this season or looking for gift inspiration, here are our top 10 picks for anyone with a fireplace:

1. Tool Sets

A complete tool set for the fireplace should include a log handler and poker for building and maintaining the fire as well as a brush and ash shovel for cleaning up after the fire. We offer a variety of options HERE.

2. Spark Screen

A spark screen allows you to enjoy the flame in your stove or fireplace while also preventing sparks and embers from entering the living space. Spark screens are available for a variety of stoves and fireplaces HERE.

3. Wood Storage

Store your firewood in style with a decorative wood holder. We carry many different types and styles from small wood baskets to large wood racks. We offer a wide variety of styles and finish options. Something is sure to catch your eye.

4. Hearth Rugs

Protect your beautiful flooring from stray sparks or embers with a luxurious hearth rug. Our hearth rugs are made from high-quality, 100% New Zealand wool and pass federal flammability standards for flame retardance. They are available in half-round or rectangular options HERE.

5. Ash Vacuum

A high-quality ash vacuum makes cleaning up after a wood or pellet fire faster and easier. The Cougar Plus vacuum uses a powerful external agitator rod to maintain strong vacuum, and high-density filters trap fine ash particles so that no dust enters your living space during the cleaning process. The fireproof steel chamber holds 3 gallons of ash, eliminating the need for expensive vacuum bags.

6. EcoFan

Looking for a simple method to boost heat circulation in your living space? The EcoFan Air max converts the heat from your stove into a DC current that provides up to 150 CFM of air movement without any power cords or batteries. The EcoFan is an ultra-quiet comfort solution for any room.

It is available HERE.

7. Log Carriers

These extra large canvas log carriers let you easily carry large loads of wood without leaving a trail of debris. Made from tough 10oz canvas duck for years of reliable use. View the options HERE.

8. Hearth Gloves

These deluxe leather safety gloves are designed for maximum protection for your hands from the high temperatures of stoves and fireplaces. These gloves will protect your hands when loading wood or using tools when your fire is hot even in direct flame or ember contact.

Available HERE.

9. Glass Cleaner

Ammonia-based cleaners like Windex run the risk of reacting with the heat of your stove and causing micro-etching on the glass that makes it appear cloudy or foggy. A stove and fireplace glass cleaner is specially formulated to cut through creosote build-up on stove and fireplace glass without ammonia.

Pro tip: Dip damp newspaper in leftover fly ash for extra scrubbing power without scratching the glass.

Available in a 16oz pump spray bottle HERE.

10. Firewood Moisture Meter

Burning properly seasoned firewood is the most important thing to produce optimum heat output, reduce creosote deposits, and get the longest life from a catalytic combustor. The Hearth Country Firewood Moisture Meter is an easy, fast way to determine the moisture content in your firewood - no more guessing!
