Product description
This magnetic log burner thermometer helps keep stove temperatures visible at a glance, improving combustion control and fuel efficiency. It attaches to the flue or stove body for continuous temperature monitoring and is useful when cooking on a stove or managing a home heating fire.
Key Points
The gauge mounts quickly using strong magnets that hold it firmly to metal flues or the top of a wood-burning stove, making installation tool-free and reversible. It reads temperatures across a wide range, so you can check when the fire is too low or running hotter than recommended, helping to avoid inefficient burning or excess soot. For practical everyday use, this accessory lets you time adding logs and adjust air controls with more confidence, which can save fuel and reduce emissions in routine stove operation. 🔥
The case and mounting include heat-resistant materials that tolerate high temperatures encountered on stove pipes. According to the manufacturer, the thermometer is suitable not only for log burners but also for coal, pellet and gas stoves where a magnetic fit to metal surfaces is possible. Note that a magnetic mount requires a ferrous surface for secure attachment, so it may not work on non-magnetic stainless steel or insulated flue sections. 🧲

Usage Recommendations
Place the thermometer on the top plate of the stove or on the accessible section of pipe where the magnet will hold. Avoid positioning on external cladding or insulated sections that do not reflect flue gas temperature, because readings would be misleading. For consistent measurements, check placement after the stove has reached operating temperature and reposition if the magnet slips due to soot or vibration.
Keep the dial clean so the indicator remains readable. If heavy creosote or ash accumulates, occasional wiping with a soft cloth when the stove is cool will help maintain accuracy. Consider that very rapid temperature swings or local hotspots may produce temporary fluctuations in the needle, so allow a short stabilisation period for the gauge to settle after adjusting the fire.
