How To Buy Firewood For Your Stoves And Log Burners

With Winter here many of us start to suffer from Seasonal Affective Disorder which

is also known as the winter blues can transform a very happy individual who have no mental health issues into negative mood changes over the dark winter months. The nights draw in, the weather turns cold, and our central heating is permanently switched on and burning up our hard earned cash.

The populations especially the elderly and babies at risk of illness due to the freezing cold temperatures.

Household bills start to mount up with an increase in lighting and heating bills.

Then at an affordable price came stoves and log burners.

Its important that you know how to buy your firewood for these wonderful products.

Kiln dried firewood has been especially dried out in a kiln which is similar to an oven. Therefore when you buy the wood is is ready to use. Kiln dried firewood is by far the best type of firewood and it is also the most expensive. Usually people buy kiln dried wood in net bags, though cubic meter bags and even trailer loads are available.

If you buy a large load of kiln dried then it is paramount that it is stored in a perfectly dry place. Even if a storage shed it will pick up moisture and smoke when burned.

Seasoned logs refers to timber that has been felled for a minimum of 12 months or longer. This is important as the wood has chance to dry thoroughly so when burning most of the energy comes to heating the room rather than been wasted by evaporating moisture.

Green timber is timber that has been cut down and sold in a short space of time, this can be made up of mixed hard and soft woods and if bought from tree surgeons could be felled in the morning and sold in the afternoon. Although there is nothing wrong with this it is not recommended burning for at least a year from buying thus giving time to dry out .

This is by far the most economical way to buy logs . however supply is limited to what has been felled over the season due to customers preferring to retain the timber for themselves.

Many suppliers now have an environmentally friendly code of conduct in regards to replanting trees and maintaining forests and woods.

What begins as a miserable and cold Winter can wind up being lovely and snug, cosy romantic and fun. All that and costing a lot less than conventional heating methods of the day.
