Oak Kiln Dried Logs

Oak Kiln Dried Logs

Oak’s dense structure helps it burn slowly than lighter woods. It performs well in wood burners, multi-fuel stoves and open fires, particularly once the appliance has reached its operating temperature.

The logs are kiln dried to below 20% moisture content to support clean, efficient burning than unseasoned firewood. Oak can take longer to catch than birch or ash, so establish the fire with dry kindling or firelighters before adding the larger logs.

Choosing Between Boxes, Nets and Crates

A single 20kg box suits occasional use, smaller storage spaces or anyone trying oak firewood for the first time. The pallet of 24 x 20kg packs provides a larger supply while keeping the logs divided into manageable quantities. Pallets containing 54 or 90 individual 25L nets are practical when the logs need to be moved, stored or distributed a net at a time.

Crates provide larger quantities, with approximately 0.8m³, 1m³, 1.63m³ and 2.2m³ stacked options available. Allow enough dry storage space and confirm that the delivery area can accommodate the selected pallet or crate.

Yes. Oak provides slow, steady heat once the stove and fire are established.

Do oak logs burn longer than birch logs?

How should kiln dried oak firewood be stored?

Keep the logs in a dry, ventilated place, raised from damp ground and protected from rain.
