5 Benefits Of Using Smokeless Coal

Smokeless fuel isn’t just for those living in smoke control areas. Everyone who enjoys having a traditional fire as the heart of the home can take advantage of the benefits of burning smokeless fuels.

Performance

Smokeless fuels produce a higher heat output and can last around 40 per cent longer than house coal. Even though house coal may seem cheaper initially, choosing smokeless fuel can save you money in the long run due to its increased performance.

Compliance With The Clean Air Act

To combat pollution, smoke control areas have been introduced in the majority of large towns and cities in the UK with selected smokeless fuels approved as authorised for use in these areas.

Smokeless fuels comply with The Clean Air Acts of 1956 and 1968, which were introduced to deal with the smog caused by the widespread burning of house coal.

Multipurpose

Unlike house coal, smokeless coal is suitable for a number of appliances such as open fires, multi-fuel stoves, heaters, cookers and much more.

Cost-Effective

Smokeless fuel is also more cost-effective in comparison to standard house coal. They burn hotter for longer, meaning you need to refuel your appliance less often. Burning smokeless fuels means that you spend less time re-fuelling your fire, and less money re-stocking your supply.

Environmentally Friendly

smokeless coals produce less smoke when combusted, they also cause less localised air pollution. producing up to 80% less smoke and 40% less CO2 when burned, smokeless fuels are gentle on the environment, without compromising their performance.
