Moisture Meter

Monitor the moisture content of your wood with this handy pocket moisture meter. When burning wood in a stove or wood burner, it is vital that your wood is seasoned. Seasoned wood has a water content of around 20-25%. Burning wet logs not only wastes energy but is a leading cause of chimney fires. Ideally, firewood needs to felled, chopped and air dried for around 2 years.
