Introduction

Wet wood is sometimes offered at a low price here in Wales, and sure it might be cut into a size where it would fit into a wood burner.

Yet with that said, wet wood, should never be burnt. The reason for this is all firewood should first go through a kiln-drying process, or be seasoned.

Its also important to know different logs take varying amount of time to season, but the timber should be correctly dried. Wet wood should therefore never be burnt, it can cause considerable damage to your stove, chimney and your flu.

Sometimes people think that all logs can be burnt straightaway, however wet logs shouldn’t be burnt, because as this article explains, it can damage your chimney and wood burner.

Let’s look at five reasons why you shouldn’t burn wet wood

Number one damage to your chimney

Wet wood can damage your chimney, the reason for this is, wet logs can produce excessive amounts of soot, which can lead to damage to your wood-burning stove and also the flu.

Because the wet wood has not been seasoned or kiln-dried, means that once it burns, it will produce a lot of smoke, it will therefore create a lot of soot which can damage your stove.

 

Number two: You might not be able to ignite wet logs

Wet wood can be so damp that sometimes, that no matter how many firelighters you use, you might not be able to ignite it. This is another reason why not to burn wet wood, because it can produce no heat or a very dull burn.

 

Number three: Can actually damage your wood-burning stove

A lot of people spend a considerable amount on their wood-burning stoves, that’s because they want to use it for many years to come, therefore as any manufacturer of stoves will tell you, you should never burn wet wood.

Wet wood can actually damage the stove itself.

 

Reason number four Can produce excessive smoke

Sometimes merely opening the door on your wood-burning stove, when wet wood is being burnt can mean that excessive amounts of smoke can escape.

It can also mean that your neighbours may see a lot of excessive smoke coming out of the chimney.

This is another reason not to use wet wood.

 

If you plan on seasoning the logs yourself, that is to say you’ve bought wet wood and you want to dry the wood yourself at home, then you have to be aware that it can take a very long time until the firewood is ready to burn.

Different logs will take a different amount of time to dry depending on which type of timber it is.
