Processing for #2 begins: February 11. As of March 2 (about 6 weeks total), awaiting results. If it's 6-8 weeks from processing time, I still have weeks to go. My own test took about 3 weeks from activation to completion, but that was a couple of years ago, so maybe there is a bigger backlog right now. Be the first to rate this.
Undo. kframe19. Yes, those kinds of fireplaces generally burned coal-depending on where you are they may well have burned lignite, which is a sort of in between peat and bituminous coal. The solid panels are a nice touch to have, still. Many times they've simply disappeared.
Wood fireplaces can be trickier than a gas fireplace for maintaining a warm heat when having to manually add more logs to the fire. To maintain a better efficiency from your fireplace try a different building technique by piling the biggest logs on the bottom then gradually adding smaller pieces until you reach the top.
