Ready to burn describes firewood that has been dried sufficiently to burn efficiently.
Moisture content is particularly important. When wet wood burns, some of the energy from the fire is used to evaporate the water contained in the logs. Dry firewood can therefore provide more effective combustion and generally produces less smoke than wet wood.
In England, the Ready to Burn scheme covers firewood sold in units of 2m³ or less, with certified wood required to have a moisture content of 20% or less.
Earnshaws’ kiln-dried hardwood logs can have a moisture content as low as 16%.
Our kiln-dried hardwood logs are dried in a controlled environment before being supplied.
This makes them a convenient choice for customers who want ready-to-burn firewood without waiting for natural seasoning.
The benefits of properly dry firewood include:
For customers looking for dry firewood for a wood burner, open fire or suitable outdoor fire, kiln-dried hardwood provides a convenient premium option.
The moisture in wet wood has to be evaporated before the timber can burn effectively. This means some of the energy in the fire is spent removing water rather than producing useful heat.
Using properly dry firewood can help provide:
Always use firewood appropriate for your appliance and follow the manufacturer’s instructions.
Earnshaws also supplies partially seasoned air-dried hardwood and softwood logs, but these should not automatically be assumed to be ready to burn.
Air-dried logs are naturally seasoned and may require further drying after purchase.
We recommend storing partially seasoned logs in a suitable log store with good ventilation and allowing them to season for around 12 to 18 months, depending on their starting moisture content and storage conditions.
If you’re unsure whether your firewood is ready to burn, use a suitable moisture meter. A moisture content of 20% or below is the target for properly dry firewood.
