The Heat Value of Wood

The following chart compiled by the United States Forest Products Laboratory indicates the amount of heat available per cord of wood from a few representative tree species. Other good to very good species would include apple, walnut, pecan, dogwood, cypress, sycamore and gum. The latter two are hard to split, as is elm.

WOOD STORAGE

Store your wood outside of the minimum clearances recommended on the drawings on page 19. Generally wood should be stored in the basement or barn, garage where insects wont bother the house. If fans are installed within fuel storage area, they should not create negative pressure in the room where the 3WOOD is located.

CAUTION

ASH REMOVAL

Before refueling the boiler, check the ash pan under grates and remove and dump ashes if full into a metal container. Replace the ash pan and close the ash door. After re-fueling, take the ash container and leave it outside the house.
