Kozy Log® BENEFITS:

  • Completion of your new home can be achieved quicker with Kozy Log® construction.
  • Higher R-values are obtained with Kozy Log® construction adding up to lower heating and cooling bills for years to come. Standard wall R-values range from R-22 to R-30 with standard roof system R-values ranging from R-40 to R-50.
  • Standard wall construction saves time and money when installing the mechanics such as plumbing, heating and electric.
  • Reduce twisting, warping and settling associated with full log construction.

Kozy Log® PRODUCTS:

  • Hand peeled with a draw-knife giving your home that authentic rustic appearance.
  • Kiln-dried ensuring quality control and proper moisture content year round.
  • Dipped in wood preserving solution that helps prevent surface molding and staining.
  • Stored under shed roofs until job site delivery. This prevents the logs from turning gray and weathering in sunlight and precipitation.
  • Kozy Log® designs and floor plans are established to assist you in the pre-planning states and initial development of your custom home.
  • Greater interior design flexibility. With Kozy Log® construction, you are not limited to the log interior finish common with full log construction. With Kozy Log® any combination of interior finishes can be applied to accent the home around your lifestyle.
 

Why Kiln-Dried Products are Preferred Among Industry Professionals:

  Uncontrolled moisture in wood can lead to progressive deterioration of your investment.
Kiln drying is a controlled process that insures structural integrity and is a standard process taken in all other aspects of your homes construction materials.
 

Other Benefits of Kiln Drying Are:

  • Shrinkage of your log products is minimized.
  • Sterilization. The kiln heat sterilizes the log from microscopic insect larva and fungi that can cause problems later, such as sap stains, blue staging, insect infestations, mold and mildew.
  • Setting the pitch. The kilns extreme heat crystallizes the remaining sap in the log, minimizing sap seepage once logs are installed
