For the best fire in your hearth or stove , you will need a firewood log that lights easily, burns hot and long without smoking or spitting. For this, you need dry (seasoned) UK hardwoods, so avoid all those nets of damp softwood out there.
Slow-growing hardwoods (like oak and ash) are denser than fast-growing softwoods (like pine) which means they give a slower, more steady heat output. You need around twice the amount of softwood to give the same heat output as the best burning hardwood species. We believe here at Kelvin we have a fine stock of logs and kindling in nets ready for you, which have been seasoned for two years, which burn very well.
