Frequently asked in Las Cruces
What's involved in installing a wood-burning fireplace?
What kind of wood burns best in a fireplace?
For your Las Cruces fireplace, seasoned hardwoods are your best bet. Think oak, maple, or ash, which have been dried for at least six to twelve months. This reduces moisture content, leading to a hotter, cleaner burn with less creosote buildup. Avoid softwoods like pine, as they burn quickly and produce more smoke and creosote. Proper wood selection ensures your fireplace operates efficiently and safely. Always use dry, seasoned wood for the best results.
