Ready to Burn Approved
Our kiln dried logs are certified under the Government's Ready to Burn scheme.
Since May 2021, firewood sold in England in volumes under 2m³ must be certified “Ready to Burn”, confirming a moisture content of 20% or less. Heartwood Tree Management is a certified Ready to Burn supplier, and every load we kiln dry is checked with calibrated moisture meters before it leaves the yard.
Why moisture content matters
- More heat: burning wet wood wastes energy boiling off water. Dry logs release significantly more usable heat per log.
- Cleaner air: wet wood produces more smoke and particulates, which is the reason the regulations exist.
- A healthier stove and flue: dry wood dramatically reduces tar and creosote build-up, cutting chimney fire risk and sweeping costs.
Because our logs are a by-product of our own tree work, the timber is local, traceable and sustainably sourced. order online or call 01929 480 995.
