Logs are well seasoned - chopped down in 2011 and stored first in garden under tarpaulin and then in side entry (covered) when chopped. they feel light as well.
They are dry and do give a good heat.
Last time I cleaned air vents and were much better.
On the other hand, my flat was brand new when I moved in June 2011 so it is very well insulated etc. In fact, the colder the weather, the warmer my flat gets as it is on the first floor of a three storey block, and most of the other inhabitants crank their heating up as soon as their slippers get cold. This is for people over 55, so quite a few of them are retired.
