‐ SafeWood‐burningPractices

Onceyourwood‐burningapplianceisproperlyinstalled,followtheseguidelinesforsafe

operation:

 Keepallflammablehouseholditems—drapes,furniture,newspapers,andbooks—far

awayfromtheappliance.

 Startfiresonlywithnewspaper,drykindlingandallnaturalororganicfirestarters.Never

startafirewithgasoline,kerosene,orcharcoalstarter.

 Donotburnwetorgreen(unseasoned)logs.

 Donotuselogsmadefromwaxandsawdustinyourwoodstove–theyaremadefor

openhearthfireplaces.Ifyouusemanufacturedlogs,choosethosemadefrom100

percentcompressedsawdust.

 Buildhotfires.Formostappliances,asmolderingfireisnotasafeorefficientfire.

 Keepthedoorsofyourwood‐burningapplianceclosedunlessloadingorstokingthelive

 Regularlyremoveashesfromyourwood‐burningapplianceintoametalcontainerwitha

cover.Storethecontainerofashesoutdoorsonacementorbrickslab(notonawood
