There are different benefits to each type of fuel and it’s really a case of deciding what best suits your home and lifestyle.

Wood Burning

Wood burns best in a wood burner that has a flat bed of ash. If you own a wood stove
you will need to buy or collect firewood,store and dry it in a covered wood store with open sides, to promote airflow and speed up the drying process.

Fire wood for your wood stove or wood fire can be purchased from a range of different companies and will often be pre-dried and delivered straight to your door.

Burning wood in your wood burner is also a carbon neutral process as almost all of the carbon dioxide emitted from the wood when burning was absorbed by the tree in it’s life time.

Smokeless Fuels

There are a number of different smokeless fuels available to buy online and in local garages and hardware stores. They burn best on the multi-fuel grate supplied with your stove or fire. Smokeless fuels have far lower emissions than ordinary coal and can be easily stored in a cool dry place.

Gas

A gas stove or a gas fire will give you instant heat at the flick of a switch with highly realistic log and fuel effects. Gas comes directly from the house gas supply.Gas stoves and Gas fires can be fully programmable, meaning you can create an automatic heating program that perfectly complements your lifestyle.

Electric
