Seasoned vs Kiln Dried

There is a real difference between kiln dried and seasoned logs and the type you choose can affect how well your fire burns. Put simply, kiln dried logs have been dried in a kiln to a consistent low moisture level, while seasoned logs are air-dried over time. Both can be used on your stove or fireplace, but the performance can vary. That's because of the difference in moisture content. Logs with an optimum moisture content of 15%-20 % ignite more easily, burn more efficiently, and produce less smoke.
