At The Dry Firewood Company, we use a kiln drying process to ensure our birch firewood has low moisture content, typically around 20% or less. Freshly cut logs are placed into a kiln, where they are exposed to controlled heat and airflow over several days. This process removes excess moisture, resulting in efficient, clean-burning firewood. Kiln drying not only enhances the wood’s performance but also eliminates pests and fungi, making it safer and more durable for indoor storage and use.
