FAQs
-
Should firewood be covered in summer?
Seasoning firewood should be mostly uncovered in summer for maximum drying. Already-dry wood can have its top covered while leaving sides open.

What’s the difference between a face cord and a full cord?
A full cord is 128 cubic feet (4×4×8 ft), while a face cord is typically one-third that size (4×8 ft × 16 in deep).
-
What causes creosote buildup in chimneys?
Creosote forms when smoke from wet wood or inefficient fires condenses in chimneys, creating a dangerous, flammable tar-like deposit.
-
What’s the hottest burning firewood?
Osage orange burns hottest at 32-33 million BTUs per cord, followed by hickory and black locust. Oak offers the best balance of heat and availability.

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.
