Merrimac Log Homes offers logs that are either green
or kiln dried. Our green logs are milled using cants
that have recently standing timber. Our kiln dried logs
are milled using cants that have been kiln dried in one of our kilns.
Our
logs are kiln-dried to a surface moisture not exceed 19% at the time of
milling. Kiln dried logs are important for several reasons.
- Kiln-dried logs are lighter and easier to install
- Kiln-dried logs insure that the there will be little
shrinkage of your logs
- The kiln-drying process helps kill insect larva
and fungus helping to alleviate serious problem later
- The kiln-drying process helps "set the pitch" in
a log which crystallizes the remaining sap minimizing sap seepage once
the logs are installed
- Kiln-Dried logs help insure minimal checking
