Your cart is empty. Use the handy Valiant Moisture meter to ensure you get the best burn from your fuel, it not only has a back-lit screen to illuminate the reading but the built-in colour change technology indicates the moisture level of the firewood. It’s an essential tool for any fireplace owner!
Fuel quality is the single most important aspect of making a successful fire. To burn effectively the moisture content of firewood needs to be less than 20%, whether it’s being used in an open fire or a stove. Freshly felled timber can have a moisture content of between 30% and 60%, which when burnt can cause dangerous creosote build-up in chimneys and high emissions of particulates to the atmosphere.Using a moisture meter is a great way to check whether your wood will give you a safe and efficient burn, or if it needs further seasoning. The screen will glow green if your fuel contains less than 20% moisture, indicating that it’s ready to go.The new Valiant moisture meter can also be used in timber, floors and buildings in order to detect and measure moisture content.

The moisture meter is likely broken. Readout does not show the whole number and nothing happens in probing the wood. The box it came in was somewhat mangled. I suspect damage in shipping as the box was not wrapped in bubble wrap. Now I have to figure out how to return and I'm hoping not to pay shipping

Works well. Seems quite accurate. Need ideally a fresh surface.

Buena calidad y mediciones como las de los profesionales. En alguna ocasión llamamos al seguro de la casa por humedades, y la medición que hacÃa el perito con su herramienta profesional, era la misma que hacÃa yo con este artÃculo. Lo recomiendo

Funziona correttamente, utilizzato per misurare l’umidità della legna da ardere.Fà quel che promette ad un prezzo ottimo.

I bought this for my wife to use when sourcing wood for her log burner. I read the reviews online before buying it and it seemed to get good reviews. It has a particular feature that the others lacked; the background colour on the screen changes from red to amber to green, according to whether the wood tested is too wet to burn, not very suitable as it's rather moist, or dry enough to be ideal for burning. This coloured background therefore makes it very easy to use, even in relative darkness, as there's no need to read the text shown on screen, you simply check the background colour! SO easy to use! Fool-proof! Additionally, it was a good price. So, highly recommended.
