How should I store my HeatBriqs?
Proper storage of wood briquettes ensures they stay dry, retain their quality, and perform efficiently when burned. Follow these guidelines to store your briquettes effectively:-
- Keep Them Dry
Store briquettes in a location protected from moisture, such as a shed, garage, or covered outdoor area. Use waterproof tarps or plastic sheeting if necessary. High humidity can also cause briquettes to absorb moisture, reducing their efficiency and causing them to crumble.
- Use Airtight Containers
Store briquettes in sealed containers, bins, or bags to keep them dry and prevent exposure to air and humidity.
- Elevate off the Ground
Place briquettes on pallets, shelves, or raised platforms to keep them off the ground and away from damp surfaces.
- Avoid Direct Sunlight
Prolonged exposure to direct sunlight can weaken the binding of briquettes, making them prone to crumbling. Store in a shaded area to maintain their integrity.
- Organise for Easy Access
Stack briquettes neatly to allow for easy access and prevent accidental crushing. Avoid over stacking, as the pressure can damage briquettes at the bottom.
- Long Term Storage Tips
If storing briquettes for extended periods, check periodically for signs of moisture or damage, and ensure the storage area remains dry and well-ventilated.
Rotate your stock by using older briquettes first to ensure none degrade over time.
Store the briquettes in the plastic wrap until ready to use.
Properly storing wood briquettes will help preserve their quality and ensure efficient, clean-burning performance whenever you need them.
