As a source of fuel for heating and cooking purposes firewood conceivably ranks as the oldest source. The very nature of firewood, at times rural and primitive, is where the appeal lies. In cities like Johannesburg the use of firewood has not lost popularity since the inception of electricity.

While the use of firewood for cooking in Johannesburg is not as commonplace, it is still an accepted medium and in many instances using firewood for cooking is considered an art and is used as a platform for social events.

Johannesburg is an expansive city and embraces all walks of life extending from urban glamour to rustic and rural. At some point the use of firewood is used not only as fuel for cooking and social interaction but also for warmth.

Situated on the highveld Johannesburg is one of the largest manmade forests in the world and as such provides an endless, renewable supply of firewood. This is ideal as it is cost effective and readily available as a source of combustible fuel for heating during the winter months.

USING FIREWOOD IN JOHANNESBURG

The use of firewood in Johannesburg and similar cities around the world requires a dedicated space or place for burning wood. Depending on the use for which the firewood has been procured a fireplace, stove, brazier, or barbecue are ideal sites.

TYPES OF FIREPLACES COMMONLY USED IN JOHANNESBURG

The winters in Johannesburg can be cold, especially during the evenings and home are often heated by means of a fireplace. Pace permitting, there are a few choices of fireplace which are ideally suited to Johannesburg lifestyle.

• Traditional fireplace – An open hearth to which firewood can be added as needed. This type of fire is best suited to a large room and requires generous amounts of firewood. This type of fireplace and the warmth of the fire is both practical and social.

• Enclosed fireplace – Modern in design, this type of fireplace uses less wood as the fire is contained within a small space with a chimney leading directly outside. Ideal to heat up a smaller room and is the fireplace of choice in smaller dwellings in Johannesburg.

• Brasier – A contained fire that can hold large quantities of firewood and will provide warmth when outdoors on a cold winter evening

• Barbecue/Braai – When not providing respite against the highveld winters, fireplaces can be used for cooking. In South Africa, the skill of cooking meat on an open fire, whether it be coal or firewood is both a necessity and a social practice. Many homes, both modern and rural, still have a stove and oven which require firewood to operate.

FIREWOOD IN JOHANNESBURG

Urban growth in many cities, Johannesburg included has caused the freely available firewood to dwindle. Residential areas are no longer bordered by renewable forests from which to forage firewood. Modern, city ling individuals do also lack the necessary time required to do their own firewood collection.

Firewood purchase and delivery companies offer various types of firewood to suit individual needs and will often deliver firewood in quantities that enable fireplace operation for an extended period.
