There are a few points to consider prior to deciding to begin a wood fire. All wood stoves require a constant air flow to create heat and combustion. This is controlled by adjustable dampers located in the door of the stove and in the flue pipe leading out to the chimney. Warmth Stoves heat your home using convection, in contrast to central heating, which is pumped into ductwork in order to be distributed throughout the house. They also generate radiant heat. However, this is often warmer than convection heating since the heat is absorbed by the surface instead of dispersing into the air. A wood stove burns firewood to produce radiant warmth that can provide lots of warmth to a room in a relatively short amount of time. The type of wood used and how it is seasoned can influence the performance of your stove. For instance, hard woods like hazel, birch and oak take longer to burn but give long-lasting and even heat. They are an excellent choice for heating a home since they have a high energy density. Soft woods like spruce or fir are less dense in energy density. This means they burn more quickly and generate more emissions. A majority of modern wood-burning stoves come with turn dampers that are installed in the interior portion of the pipe leading to the chimney. The dampers are rotatable, and can be adjusted to slow down or speed up the departure of combustion gases from your stove, thereby controlling the amount of heat that is retained within your home. It is important to remember that a wood stove needs more maintenance than other heating options. Before you can start burning the wood, you'll have to chop it up and split it before stacking it. You'll need to replenish the stove if it is running out of fuel, and you'll also be required to regularly clean the a
