Efficiency

This can cause overfiring, which can harm the appliance and decrease its overall performance. Modern stoves have detailed instructions in the owners' manuals on how to use the air controls.
The use of high-quality firewood is a crucial aspect in the efficiency of wood stoves. The more dried the wood is, the more efficiently the wood will burn and produce heat. A good rule of thumb is to use only seasoned wood that has been split and dried for at least one year.
