Choosing the Best Logs for Your Fireplace

The best fireplace logs depend on how you like to use your open fire. Some customers prefer a bright, lively flame, while others want denser logs that provide steadier heat once the fire is established.

Kiln dried birch logs light readily and produce an attractive flame, making them a popular option for occasional evening fires. Kiln dried ash logs offer a dependable balance between easy lighting and sustained heat.

For customers who prefer denser firewood, kiln dried oak logs can provide a slower, steadier burn once the fireplace is properly alight. Mixed hardwood options combine different burning characteristics and offer a practical choice for everyday use.

Actual heat output and burn time will always depend on the fireplace, chimney draw, log size, airflow and how the fire is managed.

Why Kiln Dried Logs Work Well in Open Fireplaces

Dry firewood is especially important in an open fireplace. When logs contain excessive moisture, more of the fire’s energy is used evaporating water instead of producing useful heat.

Our kiln dried logs are supplied below 20% moisture. This helps them light more readily and burn more effectively than wetter, poorly prepared wood.

Using suitably dry logs can also help reduce excessive smoke and deposits compared with burning wet firewood, provided your fireplace and chimney are correctly maintained and the fire is operated properly.

Choose the Right Quantity of Fireplace Logs

How much firewood you need depends primarily on how frequently you light your fireplace.

For occasional fires, bags of kiln dried logs provide a convenient way to keep a manageable supply at home. Our firewood boxes are another useful option when you want logs and firelighting essentials together.

For regular use, buying kiln dried logs in bulk bags or choosing one of our kiln dried log crates can reduce the cost per log and mean fewer repeat orders.

If you are unsure how the different options compare, use our firewood volume comparison guide before ordering.

Getting the Best From Your Fireplace Logs

Begin with dry kindling and firelighters, allowing sufficient airflow around the fuel. Add smaller split logs first, followed by larger logs once the fire is burning properly.

Avoid overloading the fireplace, and always use a suitable fireguard where required. Your chimney should be inspected and swept at appropriate intervals, particularly when an open fire is used regularly.

Store your remaining logs somewhere dry and ventilated. Keep them sheltered from rain and raised away from persistently damp ground so they remain ready for your next fire.

Fireplace Logs FAQs

Are kiln dried logs suitable for an open fireplace?

Yes. Kiln dried firewood is suitable for properly installed and maintained open fireplaces. Always ensure your chimney is clear, use a suitable fireguard and comply with any local smoke-control requirements.

Which logs are best for a fireplace?

Birch is useful for easy lighting and an attractive flame, while ash provides balanced heat and oak offers a denser, steadier burn once established. Many customers use a mixture of species to benefit from their different characteristics.

Are these decorative fireplace logs?

No. The products on this page are real wood fuel intended for burning. They are not artificial fire logs, gas-fire ornaments or decorative birch branches.

How should I store my fireplace logs?

Keep kiln dried logs in a dry, sheltered and well-ventilated location. Raise them away from damp ground and avoid completely enclosing them in plastic, which can restrict airflow.

How many logs should I order?

Small bags and boxes are suitable for occasional fires. Regular fireplace users will normally obtain better value from bulk bags, palletised bags or crates. Use our volume comparison guide to compare the available quantities.
