-
How should firewood be stored?
Store firewood elevated off the ground, 20-30 feet from your home, in a sunny location with only the top covered to allow airflow.
-
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.
