Luxury Housing Trends & Home Improvement Ideas

Winter’s snowstorms and bitter cold winds don’t have to intimidate you into abandoning your green lifestyle. A California-based company, FireCrystals, has created an environmentally friendly product for your fireplace. This product prevents you from having to burn wood or fake logs, which emit ash, soot and carbon toxins. FireCrystals don’t contribute to pollution, and they are odorless so your furniture won’t smell like wood smoke. In addition, this product is made from glass, which can be recycled.

Burning wood is detrimental to the environment and your health, so this alternative provides a cleaner option for everyone and everything involved. Wood smoke can agitate allergies and affect your respiratory system in other ways due to the emission of different gases and particles.

In order to use FireCrystals, your fireplace must have a natural gas outlet or it can be an outdoor fireplace. It costs between $350 and $700 but one set was said to have lasted five years (product’s life will vary).
