A common indicator of wet wood can be:

• Soot on the glass of the stove.
• Fire starts very slowly and produces only small flames.
• Fire produces a lot of smoke and bad smell.
• A whistling noise comes from the burning logs.

Using wet wood can lead to:

• Rust or paint peeling off inside the stove.
• Rust or paint peeling off on the edges of the door and top plate.
• Rust or paint peeling off on air vents.
• Damage to gaskets and pipe.

IMPORTANT: To ensure that your stove will work perfectly, you must use firewood with a moisture level below 18%.
