No Carbon Tax on Firewood!
In his 2010 Budget Speech, the Minister for Finance announced the introduction of a Carbon Tax on Home Heating Oil, Gas, Coal and Peat. However Carbon Tax is NOT being applied to Firewood because it is regarded as being Carbon Neutral. The rates of tax are as follows: Fuel
| Carbon Tax Rate
| Coal
| 11.1%
| Peat Briquettes
| 10.1% | Natural Gas
| 6.0% | Heating Oil
| 8.7% |
Ash Firewood Logs - The Economical and Eco Friendly Choice
Firewood is fast becoming the choice solid fuel throughout the world. There are two reasons for this, the effects of green house gases on the global climate leading to Governments imposing carbon taxes on coal and oil, and secondly the world's reserve of oil is reducing. Firewood is carbon neutral, which means the carbon dioxide released when burned is equivalent to the carbon dioxide absorbed by the trees while growing. Firewood Logs are natural, unprocessed, and been used for all of civilization.
Ash is widely regarded as the best wood species to burn. This is because it is a hardwood, and has excellent burning properties, including:
- Ash logs last much longer than softwoods when burned in stoves or open fires
- When burned, it turns into a bright red glow, with high heat output
- It has few knots, so sparks less than other woods
- Burns completely, and leaves very little ash
- Less smoke emitted so chimneys are cleaner
- Clean to handle
In order to burn efficiently, it is important that the firewood be dried - with a moisture content of less than 30%. All our firewood has been dried in a kiln until its moisture content is below 20%.
