Introduction

It’s that time of year again, where even when we pop along to the local supermarket, the is filled with Christmas items.

Some people complain that it’s too early to think about Christmas, while others think that it’s a great time of the year in the build-up to Christmas Day.

 

Why you should order your logs today

Firewood is in significant demand across Wales as more homeowners are burning logs as their main way of heating their homes.

However, those of us who have owned a wood burner for an extended period of time will know that there are logs, and then their logs- so what do we mean by that statement?

Some logs, like those you can source from Forestry Firewood Ltd, are of excellent quality. They burn bright and produce a fantastic amount of heat.

On the other hand, there are rubbish-quality logs supplied by some companies, and the wood is still wet. This means that it’s extremely hard to ignite, and when lit, it produces excessive amounts of smoke and soot, which will eventually clog up the wood-burning stove and the chimney.

This is why so many of our customers return yearly: We offer a consistent supply of high-quality firewood. You know that when you purchase from us, the firewood is ready to burn, and it’s a type of wood, such as ash or oak, that is superb for burning in, say, a wood-burning stove.

 

Stock up now for Christmas

Many homeowners in Cardiff, Newport, and all of the surrounding areas use their wood-burning stoves more often during the Christmas period.

Therefore, you will likely want ample firewood stacked up in your wood store, ready to burn over Christmas.

It costs less than you might think

Some firewood suppliers charge a lot more than we do. However, we have always kept our prices down because this allows our customers to buy in quantity, as many of our customers use their wood-burning stoves to warm their homes.

Because our prices have always been kept low, our customers can buy a considerable amount of firewood, sometimes a full van load, at a very fair price.

Introduction

Here in the United Kingdom, homeowners often purchase two main types of logs.

Those two varieties of wood are oak logs and ash logs. Here at Forestry Firewood, we can supply both types of firewood to your home.

Then, a firewood company has two main ways of reducing the moisture content of logs: seasoning the wood, often in an open barn, or kiln-drying the firewood.

All of our firewood is kiln-dried; in this article, we will explain the benefits of this process.

 

Suitable for use in wood stoves, outdoor fire pits and open fires

A huge range of benefits to choosing kiln-dried firewood is that a company can produce consistent quality firewood.
For example, firewood companies that frequently kiln-dry logs, such as ash firewood, will know how long they need to keep the wood in their kiln.

The time it takes to dry the wood through the kiln drying process depends on the kiln size, the way the company generates the heat, and the type of wood.

We use a bio-mass boiler in our purpose-built kiln.

 

Reducing the moisture

Therefore, kiln-drying logs, whether ask, oak, or any variety of logs, are a perfect way of reducing their moisture content. It allows companies like Forestry Firewood to produce a consistent quality product because they can bake the logs for an extended period, ensuring the moisture content of the logs is significantly reduced.

So, what are the main benefits of purchasing kiln-dried firewood from you:

 

Lower moisture content

The last thing you want to do is try to burn green wood. The reason is that it will massively damage your stove and chimney by causing excessive soot. So we sell kiln-dried firewood instead, which has been dried and had the moisture reduced so that it’s ready to burn.

 

Easier to ignite

Our logs are much simpler to ignite. The reason for this is that by reducing the moisture content of the logs, they are ready to burn. With just a small amount of softwood kindling and fire lighters, you can have your fire up and running in seconds.

As many wood-burning stove owners will know, it can be extremely frustrating if the wood has a high moisture content. It then produces excessive amounts of smoke, damaging the stove and chimney, and it also takes a very long time to ignore the firewood.
This is why we sell only kiln-dried firewood that’s ready to burn.

 

Hotter burn

If you were to purchase wet wood, it would produce a lot of smoke but also a dull burn. The wood may take a long time to burn, and it will not burn that bright, meaning not much heat is generated.

Our kiln-dried logs are entirely different. They produce a fantastic amount of heat, so some customers have switched to using our logs as the only way they heat their homes.

 

Would you like to have our logs delivered?

If you want quality, kiln-dried, top-quality logs delivered to your home or place of business, if you run a pub or restaurant, then why not call us?

 

Introduction

Many homeowners across the country may have had a log burner in their living room for some time.

The log burner might have been used, say, over the Christmas period, and this helps to improve the room’s ambience.

Yet, in recent years, natural gas prices have spiked, and people’s energy bills have increased as a direct result. This means more and more people are looking for ways to heat their homes and improve their homes’ energy efficiency.

In this article, we will concentrate on recommending the two main types of logs that you should purchase for your wood-burning stove.

Kiln-dried firewood

So, a common mistake that homeowners can make is to think that as long as the wood is cut to the correct size and not soaking wet, it’s good to burn.

This is not the case, and we shall explain why.

When trees are cut down, the timber can be very wet inside. This moisture doesn’t evaporate quickly; it’s actually held in the wood for a very long period of time.

There are only two main ways to reduce the moisture content of timber logs: correctly season the firewood for a long period. How long the wood needs to season depends on the time of the logs.

Then there’s kiln-drying, blasting the logs with hot air, forcing the moisture to evaporate.

 

What type of firewood do you sell?

We sell kiln-dried firewood. The reason for this is that we have built our own kiln, which allows us to quality-control the wood at our business premises.

If the logs are not dry enough, they will not be delivered.

Therefore, all of our logs undergo an extensive drying process, which involves placing them in metal cages and then in a giant kiln for a long period of time. We open the doors on the kiln, use a moisture meter to check the moisture content, and if it’s below a certain threshold, we can sell the wood.

If the moisture content of the logs is too high, we simply return them to the kiln and bake them for even longer.

Just like pasty placed in the oven, our logs emerge from the kiln hot and baked, and the moisture has gone.

 

Cracking of the wood

A sure-fire way of seeing that the logs have been subjected to a very high temperature for an extended period is that the logs will be cracked.

These deep cracks appear along the logs, showing that they have been baked for a long time in our ovens.

Introduction

Every single autumn and winter there is a variety of firewood that is always in strong demand, and that is ash firewood.

The benefits of burning ash firewood are clear: it burns brilliantly and produces absolute superb heat, whether it is burnt in open fire or enclosed within a wood-burning stove.

Our commitment to quality and reliability sets our firewood apart for some of our direct competitors, making it the preferred choice for many of our customers in Wales. We ensure that every batch of firewood is perfectly dried before it leaves our yard, guaranteeing our customers a consistent and high-quality burn.

As with all varieties of firewood, how well the logs burn depends entirely on how well seasoned the firewood is and whether it has been sufficiently dried to what is called the “kiln drying process”. This process, which involves a controlled and gradual reduction of moisture within the logs, ensures that the firewood retains its quality and burns efficiently for the customer.

For those unfamiliar with the term, “kiln-dried logs”, it means the wood has been placed in a large oven-like structure. This process, involving heat and ventilation, which significantly reduces the logs’ moisture content, making the logs ideal for burning.

However, even though firewood can be kiln-dried, how well it has been dried varies depending on the company you purchase from.
You can be rest assured when you choose us; we take pride and care in the production of our firewood.
Each batch undergoes rigorous quality control, ensuring it’s sufficiently dried for long enough before it leaves the yard.

There are occasions when the firewood comes out of the kiln and sometimes needs to be put back into the kiln to reduce the moisture content futher. This is a part of our quality control process, ensuring the firewood is perfectly dried before it leaves our yard.

Therefore, you can be assured that all of the ash firewood you purchase from us has been kiln-dried for long enough, which means they can be burnt straightaway.

 

Is, therefore, your wood ready to burn?

 

Yes, it most certainly is. Some firewood requires further seasoning when purchased from another company.
However, purchasing “wet wood” this then takes up a lot of space in a garden or a garage, so many homeowners understandably do not want to purchase wet wood that needs seasoning.

Our firewood is entirely different and is ready to burn.
Therefore, as soon as it is delivered and tipped off the back of our van, it can be burnt straightaway.
This eliminates the need for further seasoning, saving you space and time.

 

Why is ash such a popular firewood?

 

You often find that when people buy firewood, they burn logs in their homes for a long period of time. For example, a homeowner might have burnt firewood in their home for let’s say, the last ten years.

A lot of customers will know that different types of firewood can burn differently depending on the wood type. Some firewood can burn very slowly and produce a rather dull brown.

Other types of softwood can burn bright and extremely hot, but they burn very fast.

Then you have other firewood varieties, which can burn for a long period of time, produce very hot heat, and are, therefore be absolutely perfect for heating a home.

Therefore, many people insist on having ash firewood delivered to their homes because it offers the best of both worlds in terms of burning for a long period of time, burning brightly, and producing a very intense heat.
This makes it an ideal choice for heating your home efficiently and effectively.

 

Can you also offer to supply kindling to help get the fire started?

 

Yes, we have recently started selling kindling as well. Therefore when you place an order with us to get your ash firewood delivered to your house, you can also get some kindling delivered as well.
