They are used to aid combustion in wood burning fireplaces by pumping air into the flames. While they are not needed in gas fireplaces they do make an ideal decorative accessory. Bellows come in a variety of designs and styles with the bags usually made of leather. Click here to find out more. Submitted on Tuesday, June 05, 2007 10:12:04 PM 3. Bellows: a popular accessory to help boost combustion in wood fires, feeding air to the flames as it is forced out of an expandable bladder. Though unnecessary for a gas hearth where the combustion level is easily controlled with the turn of a knob, bellows' lovely finish in attractive blends of fine woods with vinyl or leather makes them a decorative accessory.

BTU-A British thermal unit (BTU) is a standard unit of energy that is used in the United States and sometimes in the U.K. It represents the amount of thermal energy necessary to raise the temperature of one pound of pure liquid water by one degree Fahrenheit at the temperature at which water has its greatest density (39 degrees Fahrenheit). Submitted on Tuesday, July 15, 2008 10:12:04 PM 12. BTU (British Thermal Unit): A way in which heat energy is measured. BTUs are used to quantify appliance output and input as a way of calculating operational costs, flue gas, vent sizes, and gas supply, line size.
