Thread Name: BS: Best wood for a fireplace
Subject: RE: BS: Best wood for a fireplace
Well, I've got twp of Bill's pieces here in my house and ghlad to have 'um...

BTW, back to dried wood for burning (sorry, Bill)... Some guys who sell you wood will say that the tree has been down for a year... That isn't dried wood... Dried wood is wood that has been cut, split and properly stacked to let air get to it for a year...

BTW, Part 2... Have a nice fire going in the woodstove... 20 outside and pushing 70 inside thanks to that stove... And the dried wood, of course...

BTW, Part 3... Small woodstoves are just fine for most applications... Unless you are burning wood in a basement or outside stove small ones put out alot of heat... Mine is from Ireland and is called a "Reginald" and burns coal or wood... Really humms and puts out the heat...
