How to use firelighters safely
Firelighters make starting a fire easier, but they must be used according to the manufacturer instructions and only for the intended application.
Choose the right product
Use BBQ-specific products for grills and products intended for stoves or fireplaces in those appliances.
Follow the stated amount
More product does not mean better lighting. Follow the pack instructions.
Never add to a burning fire
Do not pour liquid firelighter onto burning or already hot fuel.
FAQ
Can the same product be used for BBQ and fireplace?
Only if the manufacturer explicitly permits both uses.
Can lighter fluid be added to hot charcoal?
No. It can cause a dangerous flare-up.
