So I know two people that wait to long harvest and split the wood for the winters use. One of them I know for a fact that he cuts the trees at the end of winter or beginning of spring and leaves them as rounds and then splits in the fall and burns. I also know he has the same exact stove as me which is a pacific energy summit and we all know how they do with wet wood.
The other guy literally waits till the middle or end of summer to cut and split and then he burns that wood that winter. I don’t know what so if he has but I know it’s an EPA stove.
How in the WORLD are these people getting any heat out of this!!!! And to add to it I know this cannot be safe and could lead to more creosote buildup. Both have been doing it for years and I am completely confused.
For example in the beginning of the summer I got one truck load of wood and I know for a fact the tree had been laying on the ground for a year and a half. It was at a local church and fell over in the storm. So that wood, a year and a half old, when cut and split it was still wet inside. Not a lot but it was. And all of it is still not ready. Just some.
