Moisture Content
For
logs to burn well they need to be seasoned until the moisture content
is down to a maximum of 30% (some fresh cut timber is as much as 60%.
Otherwise much of the energy produced from the burning log will be used
to convert the water in the logs into steam rather than producing heat
for your home. All our hardwood logs have an average moisture content
of 20-25%.
Why Burn Wood?
Because
the only carbon dioxide that is given off when burning wood is that
which it has taken while it was growing, it is classed as carbon
neutral fuel, and once a tree dies and rots, this carbon dioxide is
released anyway. Where as the carbon dioxide from a fossil fuel is
adding extra to the atmosphere instead of it being locked under the
ground. |
