  • Can I use a Dingle The Dragon Burner Senior without a fire grate?
    Yes, if you wish to burn charcoal or logs the Burner will work well without a fire grate. You will however need to put a small quantity of sand in the bottom of the burner to protect the base from impact damage. The fire that you make should be made in the middle of the burner and not stacked up against the back. If you are burning smokeless coal or house coal then you do need to replace the fire grate.

  • Are there any special precautions to take for my Dragon?
    The Dragon Burners are made to a very high standard however basic care and attention should be taken to ensure the long life of your burner. Moving the burner as little as possible and ensuring that you place the coal/logs in the fire basket and not throw them against the back wall. Fires with flames bellowing out of the top of the burner will reduce its life expectancy.
