The following are a few signs indicating that firewood is sufficiently dry for use: (a) cracks on the ends and surface of the logs, (b) lighter in weight, and (c) color (yellow/grey).

This may be done by using an air exchanger unit or simply by opening a window or a door near the fireplace partially for a few minutes.
