The Benefits of Kiln Drying Your Lumber
In order to be useful in indoor projects, wood must have a moisture content at or below 8%. Kiln drying is the simple, cost-effective
method recommended for anyone who wants to increase profits by selling dried lumber. Kiln drying controls humidity, temperature,
and air velocity in order to reduce the risk of fungal stain, decay, rot, and mold. Lumber dried in a kiln weighs less and holds screws
and nails better than lumber that has not been kiln-dried. It is easier to finish and quickly gets wood ready for projects like furniture,
cabinetry, and wood flooring.
