I've been assuming that if some wood from my old deck had rotted some and the other wood is has rotted not at all, the rotted wood was not treated. Is that right?
Specifically, the 30 year old deck that I mostly tore down last spring had 2x4's for the floor that warped etc. but never rotted. I'm sure they were treated, right?
But the 2x8's that went horizontally and held up the floor, and the
4x4's which were the posts, have substantial rot, mostly in the center of each piece and on one side, or at one end, with the rest looking pretty good. Can I assume those were treated?I am burning in my fireplace the tree that fell down , and would like to burn the non-treated lumber too.
