What type of wood is best fora wood-burner fireplace?

It is best to use seasoned hardwoods like Birch and Ash, in a wood-burner fireplace. These woods burn hot, produce a nice bright flame and when burnt correctly will deliver clean and efficient heating.

It’s also important to ensure that the wood is properly seasoned (dried out) before burning, as wet or green wood can create more smoke and cause more creosote buildup.
