. Other regional favorites are alder, beech, pecan, maple, oak,
buttonwood and mangrove. Use local woods only if logs are selected and
sized properly.
Use only dry wood. Wet wood will release acids that will damage heating
elements and reduce the length of their life.
“I’ve seen heating elements come back to us that have bubbled up and
blown out because people exposed them to wet wood.” Tony Marlar,
