I have some pine that I would like to use as firewood. I have yet to
split and season these pieces yet. I am trying to find out if it is
really as safe as a hardwood to burn indoors in a fireplace. If not I
can burn outdoors in the bowl.


Seasoned pine is fine for undamped fires. Good screen on the fireplace and
a good draft will do all right. Never will do as well as denser woods for
heat, but what you have is what you have.

Not sure any of those "logs" for chimney cleaning do any good.
