The Ultimate Guide to Buying Seasoned Firewood for Your Home
Why Choosing the Right Firewood Matters
When it comes to keeping your home warm during winter, not all firewood is created equal. Using seasoned firewood ensures your fire burns hotter, cleaner, and more efficiently. Unlike green or unseasoned wood, seasoned firewood has been dried naturally, reducing smoke, creosote build-up, and wasted energy.
Benefits of Seasoned Firewood
Higher Heat Output – Dried wood burns more efficiently, keeping your home warmer.
Less Smoke and Creosote – Seasoned wood produces less residue in your chimney.
Easier to Light – Dry wood ignites faster, saving time and effort.
Wood Type: Hardwood such as oak, ash, or beech burns longer and produces more heat. Softwood like pine burns faster, making it ideal for kindling.
Dryness: Look for wood with cracks at the ends and a darkened color—signs it’s properly seasoned.
Size: Split logs are easier to handle and fit better in your fireplace or stove.
Firewood Storage Tips
Proper storage keeps your firewood dry and ready to use:
Store logs off the ground on a pallet or rack.
Cover the top with a waterproof sheet but leave the sides open for airflow.
Keep firewood away from your home to prevent pests.
