BOX WOOD STOVE
Birch
Soft wood ignites easily with great thermal energy production. It produces less smoke and ash compared to
other wood and burns silently. The same characteristics apply for lime and chestnut.
Beech
Hard wood ideal for firewood requires a high temperature to ignite. It weights a lot; it is dense and burns with
a calm and long fire for a longer time. Best when well seasoned. The same applies for oak, but seasoned
for 2-3 years.
The various wood types have various calorific values
The values are based on 15% residual wood moisture
