Moisture Meters £48-00 inc. vat

The moisture content of wood for burning should be as low as possible, but certainly below 25%.

This clever device enables you to measure the moisture content of your wood. Simply split a log, push the pointers cross grained into the wood as illustrated below. A percentage reading is then given on the display. This is the moisture content of your wood. If the reading is over 25%, keep the wood drying for a little bit longer.

  • Burning dry wood is environmentally friendly, whereas wet wood causes pollution.
  • Burning dry wood will cost you less money, whereas wet wood reduces the heat available from the wood by up to 80%.
  • Burning dry wood reduces the maintenance of the stove and substantially increases the longevity of the flue system.
  • Burning dry wood gives a responsive fire with the finest and most dramatic flame pictures.
  • A moisture meter is invaluable for establishing the water content of the wood that you are proposing to burn.
