Wood is a renewable source of solid energy. Unlike other forms of solid energy such as coal, it is not a nett producer of carbon dioxide, a gas that some people believe is contributing to global warming or other detrimental environmental effects. Burning wood in a wood fire produces no more CO² than allowing the wood to rot in the forest.

Wood is a combination of solid and gaseous components. In order to burn properly, both components must be exposed to proper conditions. "Good wood" is a major contributing factor to the performance of a fire.

The solid component, basically the charcoal content, is the easiest to handle. Most controlled combustion wood firescan extract the heat from this quite readily. This charcoal component generally yields about 50% of the potential heating value of the wood. The gaseous components are harder to burn properly. If not burned properly, these gases can leave the fire as smoke, creosote and particles. Our engineers are now designing fires that extract as much of the usable heat out from the gases emitted by the fuel as possible and, by doing this,so limit the amount of emissions from the flue.
