How do Goodwood Firelogs compare to Cordwood?
POUND FOR POUND:
– Due to their high density and low moisture content (approx 5%), Goodwood Firelogs pack about 8600 BTU’s per dry pound.
– Seasoned hardwood firewood (approx 20-25% moisture content) has a net heating value ranging from ~6600-7600 BTU per pound.

A PALLET vs A CORD (after accounting for moisture losses and a well-tuned EPA-certified stove at 70% efficiency)
– A full pallet (2100lbs) of Goodwood firelogs has a net heating value of approx 15.4 MBTU’s.
– A cord (128 cubic feet) of well-seasoned hardwood with 20% moisture content has a net heating value of approx 13.2 MBTU’s.

Can I use Goodwood® Firelogs in my Woodstove?
YES! Densified fuels, including all-wood firelogs and pellets, are preferred for woodstoves and heating. It is important to understand your fireplace, chimenea or wood stove heat rating — some manufacturers say not to burn more than two densified wood logs at a time because too much heat may be produced.

Where does the wood come from?
The wood shavings used for Goodwood® Firelogs are the by-product of lumber millworking. The diversion of this clean woody biomass from landfill to wood firelog production ensures that tens of thousands of pounds of millwaste are utilized rather than landfilled each week.

How long do the easy-lighting firebags and boxes burn?
As with regular firewood, the duration of a wood fire varies depending on airflow, placement of logs and tending. Pound for pound, all-wood firelogs burn longer than regular firewood. In an open fireplace, our easy-light 5lb bag typically burns for 1-1.5 hours. Our easy-light 7.5lb Grab & Go box burns for about 2 hours.

Why a burlap bag?
For our all-natural package we chose burlap made from jute, a fiber derived from the woody stem of an annual plant that grows like a weed throughout Asia and West Africa. Jute lights easily, burns cleanly and has a pleasant, natural scent. After the jute bag is lit, it ignites the woodchips and firelog chunks inside.
