Product information
Use the handy Valiant Moisture meter to ensure you get the best burn from your fuel, it not only has a back-lit screen to illuminate the reading but the built-in colour-change technology indicates the moisture level of the firewood. It’s an essential tool for any fireplace owner! Fuel quality is the single most important aspect of making a successful fire. To burn effectively the moisture content of firewood needs to be less than 20%, whether it’s being used in an open fire or a stove. Freshly felled timber can have a moisture content of between 30% and 60%, which when burnt can cause dangerous creosote build-up in chimneys and high emissions of particulates to the atmosphere. Using a moisture meter is a great way to check whether your wood will give you a safe and efficient burn, or if it needs further seasoning. The screen will glow green if your fuel contains less than 20% moisture, indicating that it’s ready to go. The new Valiant moisture meter can also be used in timber, floors, and buildings in order to detect and measure moisture content
