They also decrease the dependence on imported wood, a significant source of carbon. In communities where wood smoke is prevalent studies have revealed that it contributes to the winter air pollution. This is particularly true in valleys that are susceptible to temperature fluctuations. 1. Pine It is commonplace to use pine wood for log burners. However, should be seasoned before being used indoors. Unseasoned pine wood is more likely to create creosote which can lead to chimney blockages. In addition, pine wood that is not seasoned will produce a lot of smoke and carbon monoxide that can be harmful to humans and pets. Most people avoid using pine wood for their firewood because of its high resin content and fear of creosote accumulation. Creosote, a tar like substance, covers the chimney flue, preventing smoke from leaving your home. It can cause chimneys to catch fire if it builds up. This is a very risky situation.

All wood must be properly seasoned prior to burning indoors. Seasoning the wood reduces the moisture content, making it easier to ignite and burn. When pine wood is seasoned it will burn faster with no sparks or spitting, and will generate a high heat output. However, it will still produce an enormous amount of creosote once it has been burned. Most people prefer hardwoods such as oak or hickory to pine wood when burning it. 2. Cedar Cedar is a softwood, and while it produces high heat however, its output isn't as high as that of other firewoods made of hardwood.
