Test your firewood is fully seasoned Measure the moisture content of any wood Burning fully seasoned wood generates more heat & reduces chimney deposits & environmental pollution

Use the Valiant Moisture Meter to test that your firewood is fully seasoned. Then enjoy a fire with less smoke, reduced chimney deposits and lower environmental pollution.

Fuel quality is the single most important aspect of making a successful fire. To burn effectively the moisture content of firewood needs to be less than 20%, whether it be an open fire or in a stove.

Burning wet wood or unseasoned, freshly felled or green wood causes;

• Heavy soot and tar build up in a chimney or liner
• Smokey chimneys
• Lower heat output
• Potentially corrosive acids in the chimney flue
• Increased likelihood of chimney fire
• Difficulty in getting the fire to burn
• Lower draw on chimneys causing smoke to enter the room
• Dirty stove glass with tar and creosote deposits
• Detrimental effects on the environment

Freshly felled timber has a moisture content of between 30 and 60%, depending on the type of wood.

The Valiant Moisture Meter can also be used in timber, floors and buildings in order to detect and measure moisture content.
