Frequently Asked Questions
What does Woodsure Ready to Burn mean?
Woodsure Ready to Burn is a quality assurance scheme that began in response to concerns in regard to hazardous emissions and poor air quality resulting from burning unseasoned or wet firewood. The accreditation demonstrates that the logs we sell contain less moisture (below 20%) are safe, efficient and meet quality standards.
Is Firewood Centre a UK certified supplier of logs?
Yes, we are. Our kiln dried logs are of the highest quality and verified by independent parties. Our logs meet all UK Air Quality Regulations, contain low moisture content, and they are suitable for use on open fires, in wood-fired burners and even commercial pizza ovens. You can view our company profile on the Ready to Burn website or view our certifications here.
What moisture content should logs be?
To meet UK legal requirements, firewood sold in batches of under 2m3 should have a moisture content of 20% or less, while our kiln dried firewood contains typically around 15% moisture. This reduction in moisture allows the logs to burn hotter, with less smoke and emissions for longer periods of time.
What size logs do I need for my wood burning stove?
Our kiln dried logs will fit into around 95% of wood burning stoves, but to be on the safe side you should measure your stove and room size and assess your desired heat output before choosing your logs. Other tips include:
- Measuring your room to calculate the volume needed (multiply L x H x W)
- Checking the insulation in the room
- Deciding how much heat you desire
- Assessing the stove size and choosing suitable logs
If you are unsure, please feel free to contact us prior to placing an order.
How much firewood do I need for a season?
It depends on a few factors. Firstly, assess the size of your home and determine whether it has good insulation, then look at the size of your stove or fireplace. Where you live in the UK can also make a difference to how many logs you will need - some areas have harsher winters, and this can lead to increased consumption. The good news is, we don’t charge for a log delivery fee, therefore you can replenish your stock at any time. Also, should you decide to order in bulk upfront, we offer generous discounts.
How much does the firewood weigh?
You should never judge firewood by the weight as heavy wood can often mean that it contains more water. While the products on our website may list the weight, it is better to use the dimensions or volume to make a judgement on the size and quantity.
How should I store the logs after they are delivered?
It’s always best to store your firewood in a secure, dry and well-ventilated area away from any damp or potential rainfall. If possible, try to store your kiln dried logs in a low-humidity environment such as a garage, basement or a dedicated log storage area. Place any batches on pallets, off the floor, or stack them under cover. You can also use a breathable tarpaulin to protect the firewood but try not to seal the area too tightly as this may trap moisture.
What is the difference between hardwood and softwood?
The types of wood are distinguished by the different tree species. Oak, ash, birch and alder are all classified as hardwood trees. They tend to grow slowly, and the logs felled from them are heavy and dense - because of this, the wood burns slower, producing more heat and less smoke. Softwoods, by comparison, usually come from evergreen trees, such as spruce, pine or fir. Their moisture levels are often higher; therefore, we don’t stock softwoods as they fail to comply with our quality standards.
Do I need to open an account to place a log delivery?
No, you don’t need to open an account to place a log delivery. We are more than happy for you to check out as a guest. However, if you do register your details via our website, we will be able to offer you additional perks, including a discount on your first order and ongoing discounts for subsequent orders.
Can I place my log delivery over the phone?
Yes, our friendly team of staff are available to place your orders over the phone during working office hours. We are open Monday to Friday from 9am to 5.30pm. Please feel free to contact us on 0333 567 2049 to place your order by phone.
Does Firewood Centre only sell logs?
No. We also offer a variety of other fuels aside from premium kiln dried logs. On our website you will find wood pellets, smokeless coal,, kindling and firelighters too, all of which are available for next day dispatch to UK mainland addresses.
