Speaking from a chemical and biological standpoint, all wood is basically similar in structure. Still, there are differences between the varieties that affect the quality and suitability for firewood. There are two primary factors that affect the way in which a piece of wood burns: the density and moisture content. With regard to density, hardwoods, such as oak and maple have a higher density. This also means that they have a higher energy content per cord. They burn at a slower pace and release more heat over time at a moderate intensity. They also produce a long-lasting coal bed that will smolder for hours. Therefore, hardwoods are an excellent choice for those needing a fire that will give off a steady amount of heat for a longer period of time, as in the case of a wood stove used for home-heating. On the other hand, softer woods such as spruce, pine, and birch, burn at a much faster rate. They produce an intense, hot flame that is relatively short lived, and their coal bed cools much faster compared to hardwoods. The softer woods also generally have pleasing aromas, and are a great choice for an ambiance fire, i.e. when your family is gathered around the fireplace at holiday time.
We have a number of varieties of firewood Everett residents can choose from. We’ll also help you decide on the type that best suits your needs.
