Whether you own a wood burner or a fire place, the most important question you face is the best wood to fuel your fire. Once you have eliminated all the poor-quality fire wood options, such as seasoned and green firewood, you are left with our Ready to Burn certified kiln dried logs.  An important consideration is the size of the logs, ensuring it fits in your wood burner or fire place.

Standard Size Kiln Dried Logs

Most wood burners and fireplaces benefit well from standard sized kiln dried logs. These fit well. At Logs For Sale Near Me, we supply our Ready to Burn certified kiln dried logs in a size of 57cm (H) x 31.7 (W) x 29cm (D). This is the ideal size to use in most wood burners and fireplaces, along with fire pits and pizza ovens.

There are times where you have a large fireplace and you are looking for a larger wood. Kiln dried logs are ideally sized to ensure you can use them in all fireplaces with confidence. When it comes to sizing your kiln dried logs, you need to remember that they are long burning, which means you are not going to have to tend to your fire or add more fuel to your fire as often,

Oversized Logs – Are They Necessary?

Our kiln dried logs are not necessarily classed as oversized. They are 57cm in height, which is average for these logs. Oversized logs tend to be considerably thicker. If you have a larger fireplace or you are using a fire pit, you can always add an extra log or two, helping your fire burn for longer.

We have found that oversized logs, which are considerably thicker than our minimal smoke kiln dried logs, are not as easy to light. The benefit to kiln dried logs is that they have a reduced moisture content, of less than twenty percent. This helps them light quickly, provide optimum heat output, while offering a longer burn duration. We recommend using our natural wood kindling to get your fire started. Kindling is smaller pieces of dried wood that light quickly and burn hot for a shorter period of time, just long enough to transfer the fire onto your kiln dried logs. This provides a quick way to light your fire, whether you are lighting a wood burner or fireplace at home or a fire pit in your garden.

Uncut Rounds

The largest kiln dried logs you can buy are uncut rounds of wood. These are around 57cm in length and 20cm in depth. As you can see our Ready to Burn certified kiln dried logs fall into this category, yet they work with all wood burners and fireplaces. The difference is these are uncut rounds, which are ideal for outdoor use.

Our kiln dried logs come in the perfect size of 57cm (H) x 31.7cm (W) x 29cm (D), enabling you to burn your fire with confidence all day and night, providing your family with a  comfortable heat throughout the home.
