Description
Down to earth and entertaining, this book offers all the knowledge needed to steer the end user through a jungle of complexity to ‘very best buys’ and even to FREE or ‘NEARLY FREE’ firewood.
Author, Shez Courtenay Smith says, “My huge bonus today is that after many years of learning ‘how to do’, I HAVE HAD NO INCREASES IN HEATING COSTS FOR THE LAST THREE YEARS. In any one year I heat my home IN LESS THAN ONE THIRD OF THE EQUIVALENT COST FOR GAS OR ELECTRICITY.
With the help of this book you can achieve all this so much more quickly.” Full of great illustrations and good humour, the book covers such important matters as:
How to compare prices of very different firewood offerings (bags, boxes, crates, loose loads etc), and how to avoid paying twice what you should.
How to obtain a significant proportion of your firewood free, or nearly free.
Why it is so important that the wood you burn is dry, and how to be sure of its moisture content.
How to ensure that your firewood burning is protective of the environment and your own good health.
