Why Our Kiln Dried Logs Are the Perfect Size for Your Log Burner

One of the most overlooked aspects of buying firewood is log size. Too big and your logs won't fit your stove, burn unevenly, or take forever to catch. Too small and you're constantly adding wood and the fire burns out quickly. Here's why getting the right size matters — and why our logs are cut specifically with Jersey log burners in mind.

Why log size matters more than you think

Most modern log burners and stoves in Jersey homes have a firebox opening of between 25cm and 40cm wide. Log manufacturers often cut wood to 30-33cm as a standard length, but the reality is that many logs sold by national suppliers are simply too large, too irregular, or too unsplit to work efficiently in a typical home stove.

Poorly sized logs cause real problems:

• They don't catch evenly, leading to one-sided burning
• Oversized logs can crack your stove glass over time
• Irregular shapes make stacking difficult and inefficient
• Large unsplit logs take much longer to dry and burn

Our logs — cut for Jersey homes

Every log we supply at Kiln Dried Logs Jersey is cut to approximately 25cm in length — the ideal size for the vast majority of log burners and open fireplaces found in Jersey homes. They're also fully split, which means:

• Maximum surface area for faster, more even burning
• Easier to stack and store neatly
• Quicker to catch and establish a fire
• More consistent burn throughout

We've thought carefully about what works best for Jersey customers. Our nets are also sized to be easily carried by one person — no struggling with heavy sacks or awkward bulk bags that are impossible to move once delivered.

The right size for every stove

Whether you have a small modern eco stove, a traditional open fireplace, or a large range cooker, our 25cm logs are designed to fit comfortably and burn efficiently. If you're ever unsure whether our logs will suit your stove, just measure your firebox opening — anything over 30cm and you'll have no problems at all.

Nets that make sense

As well as getting the log size right, we've also thought about how our logs are packaged. Our nets are:

• Light enough to carry easily — no need for a wheelbarrow
• Compact enough to store in a log store, garage or shed
• Available in any quantity of nets so you can order exactly what you need
• Delivered right to your door or storage area, stacked where you want them

No bulk bags dumped on your driveway, no logs rolling everywhere. Just neatly netted, perfectly sized firewood delivered exactly where you need it.
