When stacking your firewood, avoid gnarled, odd shaped and overly short pieces as they can potentially compromise the pile's stability. Don't stack too high either, the taller they are, the harder they fall.
Happy heating!
Do you heat your home with firewood as a primary or secondary source? Are you thinking of using wood heat to supplement your home heating needs? I've created this site to help demystify and hopefully educate anyone about the joys of wood heat.
