‐ Safe Wood‐burning Practices
Once your wood‐burning appliance is properly installed, follow these guidelines for safe
operation:

Keep all flammable household items—drapes, furniture, newspapers, and books—far
away from the appliance.

Start fires only with newspaper, dry kindling and all natural or organic fire starters. Never
start a fire with gasoline, kerosene, or charcoal starter.

Do not burn wet or green (unseasoned) logs.

Do not use logs made from wax and sawdust in your wood stove – they are made for
open hearth fireplaces. If you use manufactured logs, choose those made from 100
percent compressed sawdust.

Build hot fires. For most appliances, a smoldering fire is not a safe or efficient fire.

Keep the doors of your wood‐burning appliance closed unless loading or stoking the live
fire. Harmful chemicals, like carbon monoxide, can be released into your home.

Regularly remove ashes from your wood‐burning appliance into a metal container with a
cover. Store the container of ashes outdoors on a cement or brick slab (not on a wood
deck or near wood). See ash removal instructions in your owner's manual.

Keep a fire extinguisher handy.

Remember to check your local air quality forecast before you burn.
