The Perfect
Poker - Fireplace Tools
A
fireplace poker, in it's basic definition, is a long rod used to
help rearrange wood in a fireplace without burning your hands.
No matter how
well you arrange your wood to get the fire
started, once the bottom pieces of wood start to
burn away, the top pieces will generally fall.
To ensure the best fire possible, a fireplace
poker can be used to rearrange the wood that
fell. The following paragraphs will discuss some
ways to find the perfect poker for you!
The size of your fireplace is one of the first
things you want to consider when trying to find
the perfect poker. For example, if your
fireplace is large, you would want to find a
longer poker, so the heat from the fire and
coals won't burn your skin as you are trying to
rearrange your wood. For a smaller fireplace, a
shorter poker may be the perfect poker for you.
If you try to use a longer poker for a smaller
fireplace, it could be awkward, and cause
rearranging the wood to be a more difficult
task. In order for your poker to be perfect, it
needs to be just long enough to prevent the heat
from burning your skin. Anything longer can be
awkward and hard to use, while anything shorter
can cause you to be burned.
Next, when trying to find the perfect poker, you
should have in mind the hook located at the end
of most fireplace pokers. Again, this usually
falls back on the size of your fireplace, and
the size of the fires you normally make. For
larger fireplaces, with larger fires, a double
hooked fireplace poker may be perfect. But if
you normally make small fires, one hook at the
end of your poker should suit you perfectly!
When trying to determine which fireplace poker
is perfect for you, there are a lot of things to
take into consideration. The size of your
fireplace should be one of the first things to
consider. The size of your fireplace is the key
factor in finding the perfect poker.
