“Ready to Burn” Authorised vs Unauthorised Smokeless Fuels

Why should I choose APPROVED smokeless fuels?

Burning approved “Ready to Burn” smokeless fuels is crucial for several reasons. Firstly, these fuels are engineered 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, toxic chemicals 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.

So when you’re shopping for smokeless fuel and you find a “cheap deal”, always look for the “Ready to Burn” seal of approval on the fuel. If it doesn’t have it, you could be putting yourself at risk.
