Log Rack Covers

The most important factor in maintaining firewood is the ability to keep the wood dry and ready to use. Log racks do a great job of elevating the wood off the ground and providing a way to stack the wood neatly so air can flow freely around and through your fire wood. In areas where you get a lot of rain and snow, it is also a good idea to protect the firewood by using a firewood rack cover. Log Rack and Firewood Rack Covers are a great way to provide protection from the elements for your firewood, that way it stays dry and ready to use when you need to get those home fires burning.

The best outdoor fire wood rack covers are durable and heavy duty and work with the design of your firewood holder

The top rated outdoor firewood rack covers combine durability and functionality, complementing the design of your firewood holder. These heavy duty covers are made of resilient materials such as polyester or Oxford fabric. The covers need to be capable of withstanding harsh weather and UV rays. In addition, they must have a secure fit to ensure that no moisture seeps in.

Most firewood rack manufacturers offer covers that fit their specific models of firewood log racks. These covers are created to fit properly with these racks, and ensure that moisture is not allowed to find its way in.

FAQ - Log Rack and Firewood Storage Rack Covers

How do you cover stacked firewood?

While it is possible to cover firewood with a tarp or awning, the most practical and efficient way to store, stack and protect your firewood is by using a Firewood log Rack and a Rack Cover. Firewood log Racks and Rack Covers are specifically designed to shield your woodpile from moisture while allowing enough airflow to prevent the growth of mold and the infestation of pests.

To cover your stacked firewood, follow these steps:

  1. Place your dry, stacked firewood onto the log rack, ensuring it is stable and secure.
  2. Depending on the size of your log rack, select a suitable cover that snugly fits over the top.
  3. Position the cover over the stacked firewood, ensuring it only covers the top and not the entire stack.
  4. Secure the cover to the log rack as per the manufacturer's instructions.

The goal is to keep the firewood dry while allowing air to circulate around it. Avoid covering the entire stack, as this may trap moisture and encourage rot.

Should firewood be covered in the summer?

The climate and area that you live in will determine if you should leave your fire wood covered all year round. If you live in an area that gets a lot of rain, then it is a good idea to keep the firewood rack covered all year round. In areas that don't get a lot of rain, covering your firewood can help to protect it from unexpected rain showers and maintain its quality for efficient burning.

However, it's crucial to do so in a way that allows the wood to breathe and doesn't trap moisture, which could lead to the growth of mold or the infestation of pests. A common practice is to use a waterproof cover or tarp that only covers the top of the wood pile, leaving the sides exposed to allow for maximum airflow and ventilation. This ensures the wood is shielded from the elements while still getting enough air to dry out properly. A well-ventilated firewood rack can also provide a good solution for this.

Do all fire wood racks come with a cover?

All firewood racks do not come with an included cover. Some firewood racks are made to be either used indoors or outdoors, and indoor racks do not need a cover. A good majority of the most trusted brands of outdoor firewood racks will include a cover with their product. It is always a good idea to verify that a cover is included prior to purchasing.

What are the different types of firewood racks?

Firewood racks come in a variety of types to suit different needs and preferences. They are usually classified by either Outdoor Firewood Racks or Inside firewood racks, but they can also be broken down into more specific categories. Some popular types include:

  • Compact Firewood Racks: Ideal for small spaces or for those who prefer a minimalist setup. They are designed to hold a lesser amount of firewood, offering a neat and tidy look.
  • Large or Oversized Firewood Racks: These are perfect for storing large quantities of wood. They are usually made from sturdy materials and are typically used outdoors.
  • Decorative Firewood Racks: These racks are not just functional but also add aesthetic value to your space. They come in various designs, from modern to traditional styles.
  • Firewood Racks with Covers: These are suitable for outdoor use as they come with covers to protect the wood from rain or snow.
  • Firewood Racks with Kindling Holders: These are multi-functional racks that have a separate space for storing kindling, providing a convenient all-in-one firewood storage solution.
