Burning approved “Ready to Burn” smokeless fuels is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, these fuels are designed to burn more efficiently and cleanly, reducing harmful emissions such as carbon monoxide, particulate matter, and volatile organic compounds. This not only helps in maintaining better air quality but also minimises health risks associated with indoor and outdoor air pollution.
On the other hand, unapproved cheaper fuels often contain higher levels of moisture and impurities. When burned, they produce more smoke and pollutants, which can lead to respiratory issues, aggravate asthma, and contribute to long-term health problems like heart disease and lung cancer. Additionally, the increased smoke and soot can cause significant damage to chimneys and flues, leading to higher maintenance costs and potential fire hazards.
Moreover, burning unapproved fuels can result in incomplete combustion, which is less energy-efficient and can increase fuel consumption, negating any initial cost savings. The environmental impact is also considerable, as higher emissions contribute to climate change and local air quality issues.
In summary, while unapproved fuels might seem like a cost-effective option, the potential health risks, environmental damage, and increased maintenance costs make “Ready to Burn” smokeless fuels a safer and more sustainable choice.
If you’re unsure which smokeless fuel is right for your home, understanding the calorific value can help you make a smarter, more cost-effective choice. The calorific value indicates how much heat energy a fuel produces when burned—so the higher the value, the more warmth you get per kilogram of fuel. This is especially important if you’re heating a larger space, using your appliance frequently, or simply want to get the best value for your money.
By comparing calorific values, you can choose a fuel that not only suits your heating needs but also helps reduce fuel consumption and environmental impact. Whether you’re prioritising heat output, burn time, or overall efficiency, knowing the calorific value gives you the confidence to choose the right fuel for your appliance and lifestyle.
In collaboration with the manufacturers, we have compiled the calorific information of our smokeless fuels into a clear format making it easier to understand and compare their properties and performance.
