  2. Everything You Need to Know About Firewood If you have a wood-burning fireplace or stove in your home, here are few tips on selecting the right firewood for your needs and how to store it through the year. Choose hardwoods: For long, lingering fires with lots of coals, choose hardwoods like oak, locust, hickory, and black maple. For small and simple fires while you cuddle and watch a movie at home, go for softer hardwoods like birch, poplar, cottonwood, or red maple. Softwoods like pine may be cheap and abundant, but they burn very quickly and you may find yourself hauling heavy loads of wood, more often than you’d like.

  3. Make sure your Make sure your wood properly seasoned: properly seasoned: wood is is “Seasoning” is simply the term for drying your wood. Before you light that first fire, make sure your wood is fully dry. While surface water evaporates quickly on a piece of wood, any moisture remaining inside the wood causes it to ignite slowly, burn inefficiently, and smoke or smolder, producing little heat despite having a flame.

  4. Purchase the right size: A split piece of wood should be no longer than 18 inches long, with 16 inches a safer measurement to fit inside indoor fireplaces. If you’re splitting your own firewood, resist the temptation to cut down the last few feet in equal lengths to avoid “leftovers.” Split them no more than 16 inches long, and chop the remaining end into several smaller pieces to use as kindling. When purchasing firewood, keep in mind that a pile is usually measured in cords. A face cord is 4 feet high by 8 feet wide, regardless of the length of the logs. A full cord is 4 feet high by 8 feet wide by 4 feet deep. Make sure you are buying logs that are stacked straight across; logs that are stacked “log cabin style” (criss-crossed) and measured as face cord or full cord mean you won’t be getting as much firewood as you paid for.
