For, even if it\u2019s great for starting fires, it isn\u2019t the best burning for a long time.<\/strong> However, to best determine whether Sycamore is good for firewood, we need to analyze its characters first.<\/p>\n\n\n\n \n\n\n\n<\/span>Characteristics of Sycamore as Firewood<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nHere are some characteristics of the sycamore that are crucial for its role as firewood:<\/p>\n\n\n\n <\/figure>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Density and Weight<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nSycamore has a density of around 400-600 kg\/m3, which is comparatively lower than that of the woods, which are ideal for firewood. Also, its weight per cord is around 5000 lbs<\/strong>, which isn\u2019t considered ideal for good quality firewood. <\/p>\n\n\n\nBut it doesn\u2019t render Sycamore entirely useless as firewood, though. Even if it can\u2019t keep you warm for long hours, Sycamore can still be used for purposes that don\u2019t require too much heat or long burning time.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Its high water content also makes it hard for Sycamore to have a long burn time, lowering its overall heat output. It produces heat for a very short time, which isn\u2019t enough to keep a house warm for long hours.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>Burn Time<\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n\n\n\nAs already mentioned, Sycamore has a very short burn time because of its high moisture content. It works great to cater to short-time burning needs but isn\u2019t good if you need warmth for a long time. Sycamore won\u2019t burn slowly for a long time, so the heat won\u2019t last for long.<\/strong> This quality doesn\u2019t make it a good choice for heating but only for quick burning purposes.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n<\/span>
