Page 21: Ash Removal
ASH REMOVAL When burning wood, only remove small amounts of ash from the firebox, leaving ideally 30mm depth of ash in the bottom for best performance. NOTES ON WOOD BURNING Wood burns most efficiently when the air for combustion is supplied from above the fire bed. - Page 22 Seasoning and Storing Firewood Wood, which has recently been cut and is still full of sap and water is known as "green" wood. Green wood will generally burn poorly and inefficiently, because it can have over 50% water in its cells. It may be hard to light, smoulder, not put out any heat and cause more than the usual amount of creosote to build up in your chimney.
- Page 23 When you build up a store of firewood, remember that the wood may start to deteriorate after 4 to 5 years, although this is of course variable and depending on storage conditions and species involved. What Type of Wood is Best? The difference between 'hard' and 'soft' woods is the density of their cells or fibres.
- Page 24 The denser hardwoods tend to smoulder more easily when the fire is first lit, so their flue gas temperature will be much cooler. Because softwoods like pine and larch contain a lot of resins and pitch, a popular misconception is that they will fur up the chimney with creosote more easily than a hardwood like oak.
- Page 25 out" the fire, and therefore making it burn very poorly, which tends to produce a lot of creosote and pollution. Emissions As the heat of the fire intensifies, waste-gases (smoke) are released from the wood. Unburned smoke is emitted into the air either as pollution, or condensed in the chimney causing creosote build-up.
