Chimney Sweep Useful Tip:

The best wood you should use for your wood stove
When it comes to the type of the wood that you have to burn, it does not matter which type of the wood that you have to use as far as it is completely seasoned. When it comes to the hardwood or oak, it should be seasoned for over a year. If your concern is to know the type of the wood that will produce less creosote and which will burn well. The answer is the same and it is the wood which has been seasoned properly. You should keep away from the firewood which was not split for over one year.

In case you have trouble in starting the fire and in keeping the fire burning for a long period, it means that you are using the wood that have been harvested in the same year and this means that it is yet to be seasoned. Green wood or unseasoned wood can be disappointing and frustrating. When the wood is not seasoned in the proper way, it is going to be hard to be light and it is not going to keep fire for a long time. It is going to be smolder and it is not going to put out enough heat. The moisture in the wood is the reason why the creosote may build up faster. The moisture found in the wood shows how much the heat of the fire is put out and the level of the creosote that can build up inside the chimney.

If you want to buy the firewood, it is good if you understand that the type of the firewood you are buying and if it has been seasoned completely. Depending on the period when the softwoods had been cut, the pine or fir can dry out in on year and it will burn easily. However, it is a hard wood; a year is not going to be enough. For the hardwood, Madrone is the best wood to use since it is a hard word, it is dense and it can burn hot for a long period. Other types of the woods are walnut, eucalyptus and live oak. The white oak is normally a troublesome wood.

The types of the wood to burn may also depend on the person who is using. In case you are burning the wood for the first time, or if you only light the fire for a certain period in the year, you should try the soft wood such as fir. The fir has a fresh aroma and it is used to create the lovely holiday ambiance. The fir takes a little time to dry and it is a trouble free wood.

The hardwood such as the black oak, walnut, eucalyptus or live oak is the best choice for a serious burner. Since the hardwood is dense, the user will burn less wood and it is the best choice to save money. When the hardwood has been seasoned properly, it can burn too hot and the fuel of the hardwood can enable the inserts and stove to maintain the fire for a long period. Even if the best wood has to be seasoned, the wood has to be seasoned only for 2 to 3 years since it will deteriorate if it is seasoned for a long period.
