Stickered boards dried at an accelerated rate by exposure to warm, dry air inside a chamber called a kiln. By controlling airflow, humidity, and temperature, this process reduces moisture content in just days or weeks to desired levels--6 to 10 percent for hardwoods and high-grade softwoods, 12 to 20 percent for construction lumber.
