  • Page 33: Frequently Asked Questions

    Frequently asked questions Q. “How can I tell if I am operating my woodstove properly?” R. Check the exhaust coming out of your woodstove chimney. The smoke is your operational barometer. If your fire is burning properly, you should only see the white transparent steam of evaporating water, darker and opaque smoke will only be slightly visible.
  • Page 34 Q. “Is it important to season wood before burning it?” R. The seasoning, or drying, process allows most of the natural moisture found in wood to evaporate, making it easier to burn. A properly seasoned log will have 20%-30% moisture content.
