FAQs

What is the ideal moisture content for firewood?

Firewood should have a moisture content of less than 20% for optimal burning.

How do I know if my firewood is dry enough?

Use the Valiant Digital Moisture Meter. If the screen glows green, and the reading is below 20%, it is ready to use.

What kind of batteries does the meter use?

The meter requires 2 x 1.5V AAA batteries.

Can I use this meter on any type of wood?

Yes, the meter can be used on most types of wood, as well as timber, floors, and building materials.

How do I clean the moisture meter?

Clean the probes after each use with a dry cloth. Avoid getting moisture inside the device.

Why is it important to use a moisture meter?

Using a moisture meter ensures you burn seasoned wood, which improves fire efficiency, reduces dangerous creosote buildup, and lowers environmental pollution.

What is the color change indicator for?

The color change indicator provides a quick visual cue of the moisture level. Green indicates the wood is ready to burn, indicating it has less than 20% moisture.

Troubleshooting

Device won't turn on.

Check that the batteries are correctly installed and have sufficient power. Replace the batteries if necessary.

Readings seem inaccurate.

Ensure the probes are fully inserted into the material. Test multiple spots to get an average reading. Make sure the wood is not treated with chemicals that might affect the reading.
