Real Estate:
The Fuel is the Thing

Burning wet wood is one of the two top barriers to pleasurable, efficient woodburning (the other is bad chimneys). Your wood heater can only operate with high efficiency and low emissions if your fuel wood has about the right moisture content. Properly seasoned firewood has moisture content of around 20 per cent and is a pleasure to use.

The symptoms of poor performance related to wet firewood include:

  • difficulty getting a fire going and keeping it burning well,
  • smoky fires with little flame,
  • dirty glass,
  • rapid creosote buildup in the chimney,
  • low heat output,
  • the smell of smoke in the house,
  • short burn times,
  • excessive fuel consumption and
  • blue-gray smoke from the chimney.

For more information on heating your home efficiently with wood, contact woodheat.org on the internet.
