Remember, fresh-cu- t green wood will not burn efficiently. If youre buying the wood for heating purposes, consider hardwood instead of softwood. Hardwoods include oak, most fruit trees (such as apple and cherry), ash, maple and birch. These generally cost more, but may be well worth it, since they have a greater density and weight and generally give off more heat. Also, consider fruitwoods if youd like to fill the home with a pleasant aroma. Softwoods, such as pines, generally leave more ash. They also have a higher moisture content which causes a popping sound when burning. North StateHighway, Nephi. Utah 623-220- 0 - Sat. Open 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Mon. d and conBurning struction wood is not recommended for use in a fireplace or kiln-drie- stove. These types of wood have a very low moisture level and burn quickly. They also leave greater deposits of creosote, which can cause a buildup of vapors, tar and soot in your chimney or stovepipe. Before purchasing firewood, agree with the seller on the amount, quality and type of wood being purchased. Pay for the wood in full only after it has been delivered and measures up to the agreed quantity. Always keep your stovepipes and flue cleaned and in good condition. Make regular inspections for creosote and soot buildup. If you are burning wood with ahigh moisture content, make your inspections more frequently. Cash Paid - We pickup old cars and trucks!
