Compressed bricks in central New England

[Adios Pantalones]

With my 3 day a week job and my home bizz, I have neglected yard work and wood processing for a couple years. Thinking bio/eco/comressed sawdust bricks for this winter.

Can anyone tell me what the local name brand is, and maybe who has decent prices? (I'm in S. NH- would need delivery)

(wasn't sure if this should be in the Pellet Mill...)

I have seen Bio-Bricks up here for $290 per ton plus delivery. If you have a Tractor Supply close by you could also check with them but check which brand they are selling now. I remember some people not being too happy about some of the ones they got from them 2 or 3 years back.

Thanks! When I finally got the right google term (it's "wood bricks", by the way), I found a place that delivers. $315 a ton delivered for "clean fire" bricks... shopping around.

Be sure to only buy highly compressed bricks or logs. You want the densest possible for longer cleaner burns. Low density products suck. Some premium compressed logs are Home Fire Prest-Logs and Northern Idaho Energy Logs. In bricks, Bio and Eco bricks are good. Follow instructions on how to burn. There are aslo wiki articles on them here - https://www.hearth.com/talk/wiki/fuels/

We've also had reports that Hot Bricks burn well too. I haven't tried these myself. Looks like there are several dealers in NH.

Cool. I found a supplier for those locally. I may do the "spike with half seasoned wood" method, but if they work- then clean burning is worth a few extra bucks.
