What You Need to Know About Outdoor Wood Burners

Outdoor wood burners are a cost-effective way to heat homes and shed Wood burner businesses. They also help reduce the dependence on fossil fuels that are not renewable and help in implementing a sustainable energy strategy.

To ensure efficient burning, it is important to use wood that has been well-seasoned. Wood that is not seasoned or green may have a higher moisture content which can cause creosote to accumulate and slow down performance.

Efficient

Outdoor wood burners (OWBs) have been around for many years and are an extremely energy efficient and environmentally friendly method to heat your home. The design of OWBs encourages the slowing of the fire, making it cooler which leads to less efficient combustion, and more smoke and creosote. These unburned fuels could cause health problems, fire hazards and degrade the environment.

Moreover, the visible smoke plume that OWBs produce can make neighbors complain. This could lead to DEC (Department of Environmental Conservation), taking enforcement action. This kind of problem can have a negative impact on your property value and even lead to your OWB being shut down.

Crown Royal Stoves offers a range of EPA Certified outdoor cast iron wood burning stove furnaces called the Pristine Gasification Series that utilizes technology to maximize combustion efficiency for a clean, smokeless combustion. This is accomplished through a negative pressure air system that draws in fresh dry, heated, filtered air from the bottom and pushes it out through the chimney much faster than traditional outdoor wood boilers. This is accomplished by an innovative design that makes use of a multi-pass, water-filled heat exchanger made of 409 Titanium Enhanced Stainless Steel.

Properly used properly, the Pristine Series OWB can achieve a 99% combustion rate for a cleaner and smokeless fire. It consumes less wood, and produces a lot less emission than traditional OWBs. To enhance your OWB's performance it is essential to only burn dry, clean, seasoned wood. The process of preparing your wood for 6 months or a year prior to burning is recommended. It helps ensure a better energy efficient and efficient burn.

In addition to maximizing 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 method lowers the amount of creosote in your home which increases the efficiency of boilers and extends the lifespan of your boiler. Additionally by adding a creosote remover stick each time you load your stove, you will be able to significantly reduce the amount creosote you use. The product is available from Wisconsin Wood Furnace.

Clean

The soot particles that are left behind after burning wood can make a stove look very dirty. They are difficult to get rid of, so remove any buildup from the glass of your stove as soon as you notice it. In the event that the soot is not removed, it will harden and be even more difficult to get off. Using the right cleaners for the job is vital however, you must also ensure that you're not damaging the glass's surface by using anything that could scratch it. This could cause an area of weakness that could break glass when exposed to high temperatures.

Make sure you let your wood stove cool completely before cleaning it. Also, make sure that the area around it is covered with newspaper. This will stop any ash spillage that can cause stains and marks on surfaces.

Based on the quality of the wood you select, it can take up to a year for your stove to become properly well-seasoned. The wood that is seasoned will not only burn more efficiently, but will also produce less creosote. This is the kind of material that builds up on your chimney, which reduces effectiveness and creating the risk of fire. If you're using unseasoned wood or just beginning a new fire in your outdoor wood burning stoves small burner, the best thing to do is to open up the lower back door and scoop ashes out into a non-combustible bin every week.

It is also recommended to perform a sediment flush on your boiler at least once every four years. This is a simple flush lasting five seconds from the bottom drain valve on your boiler. This will eliminate any sediments that have accumulated up in the system, and will ensure that your boiler runs well.

After you've completed the sediment flush, it's time to clean the outside wood burners of your outdoor wood burner. Before you begin, it's crucial to cover the stove's perimeter with newspaper. It is also helpful to wear protective eyewear and gloves. Also, you should have an shovel, a metal ash container and scraping tools. To safeguard the refractory, you need to lay down a cloth to shield it as you scrape away coal and ash deposits.

Easy to operate

Outdoor wood boilers (also known as outdoor furnaces, outdoor wood hydronic heating systems or outdoor wood heaters) are often misunderstood despite their popularity. They were one of the "it" trends of the 1990s, along with hairstyles with mullets. In contrast to their EPA-approved counterparts, popular wood stoves that are designed to burn at constant, low temperatures, these boilers have more fire and emit more smoke when they operate. Certain local governments restrict or ban their use.

OWBs are best suited to homes that have high levels of insulation. Smoke that is thick and smoldering may be a nuisance for neighbors, resulting in many OWBs to be shut down or sued. For OWBs dry wood with lower moisture content is required to function properly. Using green or unseasoned wood reduces efficiency, leads to creosote to build up and may cut down the life of the burner. A moisture gauge will allow you determine how long it takes for wood to dry.

In contrast, dual-stage wood gasification boilers (OWGB) utilize a three step process that uses more of the available energy in the wood, resulting in much less smoke. These types of furnaces are far more efficient than conventional OWBs and can be used with a wider variety of fuel. Wood gasification boilers need dry well-seasoned wood. The majority of wood will season within the course of a year. Oak and other tough trees can 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 outside wood burners decreasing pollution. The EPA's "Burn Wise" website and Cornell Cooperative Extension can help homeowners learn more about burning wood efficiently, thereby reducing air pollution.

Low Maintenance

Modern outdoor wood furnaces have been designed with the environment in mind. In contrast to indoor contemporary wood burning stoves burners which emit significant smoke Modern outdoor furnaces burn efficiently and without the production of excessive carbon monoxide or heat. They also use less wood to produce the same amount of heat as traditional stoves.

Outdoor wood burners require less maintenance than indoor wood burners and are more accommodating in regards to the moisture content of the wood. Outdoor wood burners are only suitable for wood that has been properly "cured" or seasoned. Certain types of wood may take up to a year. It is essential to use a moisture meter to check the water content of your wood before loading.

In the course of operation, it is crucial to check the system regularly to check for accumulation of creosote. Creosote, a by-product of combustion, can build up in the flue and chimney if they are not cleaned regularly. It can be removed by pouring a creosote-removing product into the fire. Regular cleaning of the flue and chimney will eliminate dangerous creosote, and boost efficiency.

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