Active since 1995, Hearth.com is THE place on the internet for free information and advice about wood stoves, pellet stoves and other energy saving equipment.
We strive to provide opinions, articles, discussions and history related to Hearth Products and in a more general sense, energy issues.
We promote the EFFICIENT, RESPONSIBLE, CLEAN and SAFE use of all fuels, whether renewable or fossil.
Burning the stove hotter when the wood is first put in - this is when the temp of the firebox and stack is usually greatly lowered.....to burn off the moisture in the wood...and then ignite the gases. If a stove has to be turned down low, it is always best done during the later stages of the fire - the charcoal stages.
