Whilst we may be in the middle of summer, it’s never too early to start planning for the
colder months, and ensuring that you have a reliable and eBicient source of firewood
becomes essential. Kiln dried firewood is an increasingly popular choice for many
households, and for good reason. At Scottish Wood, we are committed to providing
high-quality kiln dried firewood that not only keeps your home warm but as with the sale
of our timber, purchasing our Firewood also supports important conservation and
community projects through our mother charity, Dynamic Woods.
Kiln dried firewood is wood that has been dried in a kiln to reduce its moisture content
to around 20% or less. This process involves placing the wood in a kiln, where it is
heated to remove moisture. The result is a product that burns more eBiciently and
cleanly than traditional seasoned firewood.
Benefits of Kiln Dried Firewood
Higher Energy EBiciency- Kiln dried firewood has a lower moisture content compared to
traditionally seasoned wood, which means it burns hotter and produces more heat. This
makes it a more eBicient fuel source, allowing you to get the most out of each log.
Cleaner Burn- With less moisture in the wood, kiln dried firewood produces less smoke
and creosote. This not only keeps your chimney cleaner but also reduces the risk of
chimney fires. A cleaner burn also means fewer emissions, making it a more
environmentally friendly option.
Easier to Light- The low moisture content of kiln dried firewood makes it easier to ignite.
You won’t need to use excessive amounts of kindling or fire starters, making the process
of starting a fire simpler and quicker.
Longer Shelf Life- Kiln dried firewood has a longer shelf life because it is less likely to rot
or become infested with insects. This makes it a more convenient and reliable option for
long-term storage.
Consistent Quality- The kiln drying process ensures a consistent moisture level across
all logs, providing a uniform burning experience. This consistency means you can rely on
kiln dried firewood to deliver the same high-quality performance every time.
