With gas and electricity prices rising many people are turning back the
clock and
using firewood
to heat their homes.
Our four feet wide log store is ideal for the medium volume user to
keep their wood supply tidy and allow it to dry. The drier your
firewood, the better it burns, and the smaller the smoke residue that
is deposited in your chimney. Our log store allows air to flow around
the logs, drying them out and seasoning them, to give you more flame,
and less smoke.
A garden log store to season firewood
This
log store will arrive on a pallet and is assembled by you using basic
tools (and a spare pair of hands helps too). It has a strong and rugged
design using 6 inch by 1 inch planks, and is
also
available in a six feet width
for higher volume wood burners. The wood store is made from timber that
is pressure treated using Osmose MicroPro technology (this is
essentially a copper treatment) to give an extended life. The
manufacturer is so confident in the quality of this product that it is
backed by a
15 year
Guarantee. A shelf is supplied on which to store kindling.
All the wood used is finest quality
FSC
certified timber
meaning that it comes from properly managed sustainable forests. The
entire process from de-barking to machining, manufacturing to pressure
treatment for an extended life, is done with the highest level of care,
attention and quality. The log store is available with or without
doors on the front.

Why dry firewood?
When
wood is first cut it is green and moist. If you burn the wood straight
away it will hiss, it may spit, and it will be very smoky. It will also
be hard to light and will not burn easily.
Wood should ideally be stored for
two years
before burning but you can get away with storing during a summer to get
most of the benefit. The wood needs airflow to dry out. Storing it in
airtight conditions (by putting a tarpaulin across it) will have the
same effect as leaving your wet washing in a pile and not hanging it
up. Over time it will go dank and mouldy. Use a log store to create the
fastest drying conditions for your winter fuel.
