FAQs
-
Why does firewood need to be split?
Splitting firewood accelerates drying by exposing more surface area, enables proper ignition and combustion, and creates manageable sizes for efficient burning.
-
How far from the house should firewood be stored?
Store firewood 20-30 feet from your home to prevent insect infestations and fire hazards. Keep only 1-2 days’ worth near your door for convenience.
-
How can you tell if firewood is dry?
Dry firewood shows cracks in end grain, sounds hollow when knocked together, weighs less, and measures below 20% moisture with a meter.
-
How do you stack firewood correctly?
Stack firewood in single rows on elevated supports, 4 feet high, with crisscrossed ends for stability. Cover only the top to allow airflow.
-
What firewood produces the best coals?
Oak and hickory produce the best, longest-lasting coals. Black locust also excels where available, while ash provides good coals with easier processing.
