Whatever wood you decide to use for your log house construction, all wood has thermal properties.

One of the benefits of wood and logs for use as building materials in your log house is in the thermal properties that it possesses. Logs have several thermal properties that help with ts energy efficiency. Logs react to heat retention and release in a similar way to stone. Think about a large rock that has been sitting outside in the summer sun all day. Then as dusk falls and the temperatures start to cool, bring the rock back inside. Depending on the size of the rock, the stone will continue to emit the heat that was absorbed for hours throughout the day. Logs work in the same manner. This is known as thermal mass. Logs will conduct heat more slowly than the other types of building materials. Specific heat is a measurement of a building material’s capacity to store thermal energy. Logs have a high rate of specific heat that is relative to that of brick or concrete, but because it doesn’t conduct heat quite as quickly as these building materials, it tends not to be used for heat storage.
