It has been a very unsettled year so far weatherwise and with the heatwave finally over a more cooler Autumn is now on it’s way. If you have a log stove it is always wise to be prepared for when this happens and then when you come home you can sit in front of a nice cosy fire, without having to think about going out and buying some logs or coal there and then. We do cater for both these situations because if you do forget to purchase them early we always have carry bags available for collection and we are open 7 days a week too. For some customers this is their only option due to lack of storage space so we always make sure we have them available. Alternatively if you wish to get prepared earlier and stocked up for the winter we have plenty of stock in for delivery too. Visit our designated firewood website www.kilndriedlogsuk.com to order your wood online or you can ring and order through the office on 01254 247075. We have crates of silver birch, beech and hornbeam, builders bags of birch and beech and 40L carry bags of kiln dried birch. We also supply 20kg bags of smokeless coal, kindling, Flames and Twizler fire lighters.
Kiln-dried logs offer several advantages over traditional firewood:
Lower Moisture Content: These logs typically have a moisture content below 20%, making them more efficient for burning.
Cleaner Burn: They produce less smoke and harmful emissions compared to unseasoned wood, improving air quality.
Higher Heat Output: Less energy is wasted on evaporating moisture, resulting in a hotter and more consistent burn.
Reduced Creosote Buildup: Lower moisture levels mean less creosote accumulation in chimneys, reducing fire risks.
Longer Burn Time: Kiln-dried logs have a higher energy density, allowing them to burn longer and more efficiently.
Convenient Storage: They are lighter, easier to handle, and less prone to mold or insect infestations.
