HIgHER EFFICIENCIES AND LOWER EMISSIONS gENERALLY RESULT WHEN BURNINg AIR DRIED
SEASONED HARDWOODS, AS COMpARED TO SOFTWOODS OR TOO gREEN OR FRESHLY CUT
BURNINg WET UNSEASONED WOOD CAN CAUSE ExCESSIvE CREOSOTE ACCUMULATION. WHEN
IgNITED IT CAN CAUSE A CHIMNEY FIRE THAT MAY RESULT IN A SERIOUS HOUSE FIRE.
burn only dry, clean unpainted wood that has been seasoned. it produces more heat and less soot or creosote.
freshly cut wood contains about 50% moisture while after proper seasoning only about 20% of the water re-
mains. As wood is burned, this water boils off consuming energy that should be used in heating. The wetter the
wood, the less heat is given off and the more creosote is produced. dry firewood has cracks in the end grain.
both hardwood and soft-
wood burn equally well in
this appliance but hardwood,
which is denser, will weigh
more per cord and burn a
little slower and longer.
firewood should be split and
stacked in a manner that air
can get to all parts of it and
covered in early spring to be
ready for burning that fall.
