Using Woods for Fireplace in the Winter – Part 1

Monday, January 3, 2022

I don’t know how many households using woods for heating in the winter in my neighborhood.


We ourselves never used wood for heating purposes.

As reported by Ortman and Raglin (2018, published in US Census Bureu) that at least 30% of houses heated by woods in America.


Using of woods is varied from one states to others. Some states, especially in rural areas that more than 30% households rely on woods for heating.


Plenty of reasons to use woods both in cities and rural areas:

- ready available or accessible

- free in many rural areas, and affordable in cities or other places.

- could reduce emissions of greenhouse gas (far below from other fuels).

In case of power failure due to natural disasters in the cold seasons, woods deliver heating security.


It is reported that average Americans use wood products 3 times than average world population per day:

- using two pound woods for average people in the world

- six pound woods for average Americans


However, not all woods are good for fireplaces due to its release smoke which contains “urushiol,” dangerous substances.

  7. At our old house we had a fireplace and used wood but you had to make sure the wood was dried, etc. The heat was really nice but I didn't like the smoke smell. In iur current house we have a gas fireplace and we love it!

  8. As bad as heating bills are going to be, I'm sure we need all the help we can get. Of course, it wouldn't be cheap around here unless you have a few trees down and can cut your own. Next step it to prepare it for winter which is probably something you would have done in the summer and fall. When I live on a farm back in Texas the fireplace was the only source of warmth. We never had a furnace.

    I live in an old house and we have snow. Lets say it's a chilly 68 inside..and on some days down to 66 so yeah, we wear lots of layers.

  17. Wood-burning fireplaces are so cozy in the winter. I didn't know that some wood releases toxic chemicals when burned. I'd have to do a little research on that to find out which types of wood are dangerous.

  20. I once had wood as the primary heat source--while I enjoyed the cutting and splitting, I didn't enjoy getting up at 3 AM to add wood to the stove in the basement and after a winter, put in a gas furnace! But I miss not having a fireplace, which only heats when the power is out (although I now have a whole house generator).
