What are the advantages of using firewood?
1. Firewood is a renewable resource - it is energy from the sun stored by the tree as it grows.
2. You are not dependent on energy companies or victim to blackouts of conventional heating systems during storms. During power failures, you will stay warm and safe.
3. Lower your utility costs. Firewood is the most cost effective fuel for domestic heating (Research Institute of Sustainable Energy). Firewood has shown to be 6x more economic than electric heat, 5x more economic than gas heat and 4x more economic than oil. Put an end to our dependence on foreign oil!
4. A blazing fireplace creates ambiance and radiant heat unlike anything else.
5. Purchasing locally sourced firewood supports your local economy.
6. Burning Firewood is carbon neutral and does not contribute to global warming. Allowing wood to rot on the forest floor releases the same amount of carbon dioxide as it does when the wood is burned properly.
