Ready To Burn Kiln Dried Logs & Kindling 

KNT (kindling n Things) LTD

Woodsure Ready To Burn certified - WS279

Whether you’re a seasoned wood-burner or just getting your hearth started, you’ve likely seen the Ready to Burn logo popping up on bags of firewood and kindling.

But what does it actually mean for you? Far from being just another "green" sticker, the Ready to Burn scheme is a gold standard that ensures your fire is efficient, safe, and legal.

Here is why choosing certified wood and kindling from Kindling n Things is the smartest move for your home and the environment.

What is the Ready to Burn Scheme?

In an effort to improve air quality across the UK, the government introduced the Air Quality (Domestic Solid Fuels Standards) (England) Regulations 2020. This legislation mandates that firewood sold in volumes under 2m³ must have a moisture content of 20% or less.

The Ready to Burn certification, administered by HETAS and Woodsure, is the easiest way for customers to identify wood that meets these strict criteria.

Why Moisture Content Matters

When you burn "green" or unseasoned wood, the fire has to work double-time just to evaporate the water trapped inside. This results in:

• Low heat output: Most of the energy is wasted boiling water.

• Excessive smoke: High moisture leads to thick, black smoke.

• Cloggy chimneys: Wet wood creates creosote, a tar-like substance that increases the risk of chimney fires.

Benefits for Kindling n Things Customers

When you shop with us, you’re getting more than just sticks and logs; you’re getting optimized fuel. Here is why our Ready to Burn products are a game-changer:

1. Instant Ignition

Our kindling is bone-dry and ready for action. Because it meets Ready to Burn standards, it catches fire instantly, providing the intense, quick heat needed to get your larger logs or briquettes going without the frustration of a smoldering fire.

2. Better for Your Health (and the Neighbors)

Burning dry wood produces significantly fewer particulates (PM2.5) than wet wood. By using certified fuel, you are drastically reducing the amount of smoke and pollutants released into your home and the local atmosphere.

3. More Heat for Your Money

It might be tempting to buy "cheap" unseasoned wood, but it’s a false economy. Dry wood burns hotter and longer. You’ll find you need fewer logs and less kindling to reach a comfortable temperature, making Ready to Burn products the more cost-effective choice in the long run.

4. Keeps Your Stove in Top Shape

Modern Ecodesign stoves are precision-engineered. Burning wet wood can damage the internal components and blacken the glass. Using our certified kindling and firewood keeps your view of the flames crystal clear and your flue clean.

Look for the Logo

When browsing Kindling n Things, keep an eye out for the official Ready to Burn symbol. It’s your guarantee that the fuel you're buying is:

• Legal for use in smoke control areas.

• Dry and ready for immediate use.

• Tested for quality and consistency.
