Hello, I’m Ricky Bernhard, and I have many years of experience using traditional open fireplaces, wood-burning stoves, and bioethanol fireplaces.
Through my personal experience with these heating devices, I’ve gained valuable knowledge that I want to share with others.
That’s why I created Warming Duty – to help you make the most of your fireplace and create a warm and inviting home environment.
