On cold days, there is nothing more attractive than the comfort of a home.

However, to enjoy the warmth and beauty of the flame, it is important to know how to properly burn wood in a stove.

Selecting firewood

Let's start with choosing firewood.

Dry hardwood firewood such as oak or ash is ideal for long lasting combustion and maximum thermal efficiency.

Ventilation

Ensure good ventilation by leaving a small gap in the oven door or using a special damper.

This will help prevent smoking and ensure that the wood burns evenly.

Correct styling

The correct order of stacking firewood is important. Start with thin layers, gradually increasing the size and adding larger pieces of firewood.

This will create optimal conditions for air circulation and provide maximum combustion efficiency.

Space between the logs

Don't forget about the spaces between the logs.

This will not only ensure better air circulation, but will also prevent gas contamination and ensure stable combustion.

Use of wood chips and chopped firewood

Experiment with chopped logs or wood chips. They create a bright fire, although they burn faster.

This is a great alternative for those looking for a more dynamic fire.

The ritual of stoking

Don't forget that burning wood is not just a duty. It is a real ritual that creates an atmosphere of coziness and warmth in your home.

Allow yourself to enjoy this moment.

Finally, remember that the art of burning wood is a way to create not only warmth, but also comfort in your home.

By following simple tips, you can turn your stove into a source of joy and comfort on cold winter evenings.
