Why It Matters

Maine winters demand a lot from a wood stove, and the quality of the firewood you burn makes a big difference. Properly seasoned hardwood burns hotter, longer, and cleaner than green or soft wood. Because the moisture content is low, more of the wood’s energy goes into heat — not boiling off water — which means a warmer home with less wood.

Seasoned hardwood also produces less smoke and creosote, helping keep your chimney cleaner and your stove running safely and efficiently all winter long. In cold, extended stretches, dense hardwoods like oak, maple, and beech provide steady overnight burns and reliable heat when you need it most.
