What You Need to Know About Outdoor Wood Burners

Outdoor wood burners are a cost-effective way to heat homes and businesses. They also help reduce dependence on non-renewable fossil fuels and contribute to a resilient energy strategy.

Well-seasoned wood is essential for efficient burning. Green or unseasoned wood may contain more moisture that can cause creosote to build up and decrease performance.

Efficient

Outdoor wood burners have been around for many years. They are a cost-effective and environmentally friendly way of heating your home. The design of OWBs favors an older, cooler fire which results in less efficient combustion and a higher amount of smoke and creosote. Unburned fuels can lead to health problems, fire hazards, and deteriorate the surrounding environment.

Additionally, the visible smoke plume OWBs generate could cause neighbors to voice their concerns. This could lead to DEC (Department of Environmental Conservation), taking enforcement action. This type of issue can affect your property value and even result in your OWB being closed down.

Crown Royal Stoves offers a range of EPA Certified outdoor wood furnaces called the Pristine Gasification Series that utilizes technology to boost the efficiency of combustion for a clean, smoke-free combustion. This is achieved through the negative pressure air system that draws fresh hot, Indoor Wood Burner dry clean air in from the bottom of the boiler and then pushes it out through the chimney at a greater rate than traditional outdoor wood boilers. This is accomplished through an innovative design that utilizes a multi-pass water filled heat exchanger made from 409 Titanium Enhanced Stainless Steel.

If properly used correctly, when used correctly, the Pristine Gasification Series OWB can attain a 99% combustion efficiency to create a cleaner, smokeless fire that consumes less wood and generates significantly fewer emissions than traditional OWBs. It is crucial to burn dry, clean, and seasoned wood in order to enhance the performance of your OWB. Seasoning your wood for 6 months or more prior to burning is recommended. This helps ensure a better energy efficient and efficient burn.

In addition to increasing the efficiency of your wood stove it is also possible to increase the efficiency of your wood burner by performing a "dry burn" every week. This technique reduces creosote which improves boiler efficiency and extends the life of your boiler. By adding a creosote-removing stick to your stove each time you fill it, you can dramatically reduce the amount of creosote that you use. This product is available from Wisconsin Wood Furnace.

Clean

A wood burning stove can be extremely dirty due to burned soot particles. They are difficult to clean and therefore, you must clean any buildup on the glass of your stove as soon as you notice it. Otherwise the soot will become harder and more difficult to get rid of. It is essential to choose the right cleaner, but you should also be careful not to scratch the glass by using anything that can scratch it. This could result in an area of weakness that could shatter the glass when it's exposed to high temperatures.

Make sure you allow your wood burner to cool completely before cleaning it. Also, ensure that the surrounding area is covered with newspaper. This will prevent any ash spillage that could stain and mark surfaces.

Based on the quality of the wood you use, it can take up to an entire year for your stove to get properly and seasoned. Wood that is properly seasoned will not only burn better and will produce less creosote. This is the substance that is able to build up on your fireplace, decreasing its efficiency and posing a potential fire hazard. If you are using unseasoned wood or are just beginning a new fire in your outdoor wood burner, the best thing to do is to open up the lower back door and scoop ashes out into a non-combustible container each week.

You should also perform an annual sediment flush on your boiler at least every four years. This is a straightforward flush that takes five seconds from the bottom drain valve on your boiler. This will remove any sediments that have built up in the system, and will ensure that your boiler runs well.

Once you've completed the sediment flush, it's now time to clean the exterior of your outdoor wood burner. Before beginning, it is important to cover the floor around the stove with newspaper. It is also advisable to wear protective eyewear and gloves. Also, you should have a metal ash canister as well as a scraping tool and a shovel. You can make use of a cloth as an insulator to shield the refractory from damage while you scrape away coal and ash deposits.

Easy to Operate

Outdoor wood boilers (also called outdoor furnaces or outdoor wood hydronic heating systems or outdoor wood heaters) are often misunderstood in spite of their popularity. They were among the "it" trends of the 1990s, as were hairstyles with mullets. Contrary to the EPA's popular wood stoves which are designed to burn at low, constant temperatures, these boilers have more fire and generate more smoke when they operate. Some local governments limit or prohibit their use.

OWBs work best in homes with high levels of insulation. Smoke that is thick and smoldering can also be a nuisance to neighbors, resulting in many OWBs to be shut down or sued. In order for OWBs to operate properly they should be operated with dry wood that has a low moisture content. Unseasoned or green wood can reduce efficiency, cause creosote build-up and reduce the life of the burner. Drying wood takes time and a moisture meter is a must for any homeowner.

Dual-stage wood gasification (OWGB) boilers are, on the other second hand wood burning stoves they employ a three-step procedure that utilizes more of the energy in the wood. This means less smoke. These kinds of furnaces are much more efficient than traditional OWBs and can be used with a greater variety of fuel. Wood gasification boilers need dry well-seasoned wood. The majority of wood will mature over the course of one year. Oak and other tough trees may take up to two years to mature. They are less water-based and have a greater density. This allows them to retain heat for longer, thereby increasing efficiency and reduce pollution. The EPA "Burn Wise' website and Cornell Cooperative Extension are great sources for homeowners to learn how to burn wood efficiently to reduce pollution to the air.

Low Maintenance

Modern outdoor wood stoves are designed to be environmentally friendly. Unlike Indoor wood Burner wood burners that produce significant smoke modern outdoor furnaces burn cleanly and without the release of excessive heat or carbon monoxide. They also use less wood to generate the same amount of heat as traditional stoves.

Outdoor wood burners also require significantly less maintenance than indoor wood burner wood burners, and are more tolerant when it comes to the moisture content of the wood burning stoves ideas. However outdoor wood burners can only be used with properly prepared or "cured" wood. Certain kinds of wood can take up to a full year. Use a moisture meter before loading to determine the amount of water present in the wood.

In the course of operation, it is crucial to inspect the system periodically to check for accumulation of creosote. Creosote is a byproduct from combustion and can build up in the chimney and flue in the event that it is not cleaned on a regular basis. It can be removed by pouring a creosote removal product into the fire. Regularly cleaning the flue and chimney will eliminate dangerous creosote buildup and improve efficiency.

Crown Royal Stoves developed a new airflow technology known as Negative Pressure Gasification to ensure 99% efficiency in combustion. This technology is employed in our EPA certified Pristine Series Outdoor Wood Furnaces to draw air from the bottom and push all gases through an sealed secondary combustion chamber, which is surrounded by water, with easy-to-clean turbines. The result is a smokeless, pollution-free burning.
