Vacuum Kiln wood Drying
what are the benefits of kiln dried wood?
When using kiln dried wood, you can expect consistently dry wood with fewer defects and enhanced stability for your woodworking projects. Heat from the kiln kills pests and it prevents cracks and warping over time. It is much faster than air drying, so you can proceed with your project sooner.
At Crown Mark Hardwoods, our Vacuum Kiln Drying Services are designed to provide a fast, reliable, and efficient drying solution for a variety of wood slabs and dimensional lumber.
Some wood species can skip air drying and be loaded directly into the kiln, but denser or freshly milled slabs benefit from initial air drying - contact us for more information.
We also offer sawmill and surfacing services. Finishing can be added on to any product at an additional cost.
pricing on Customer-provided items:
$2/board-foot (12” x 12” x 1”) with a $150 Minimum
Our kiln cycle depends on how thick the wood is. It is approximately 1 week per inch of thickness. Reach out to us to schedule drop-offs and we will provide an estimated ready date.
You will sign a waiver upon intake and we will take measurements at that time.
