Wrong forum Best fuel for a stove

[Christy]

Hi

I recently installed a solid fuel stove in my house. It is just stand alone with no back boiler. I have been trying out different fuel types in it but I was just wondering what anyone else out there uses.

For what it is worth I have used -

• Coal - Which is not bad but not very green
• Logs - Which were too damp and blackened the window
• Briquettes - Did not give out great heat
• Kiln dried logs - Which give out great heat but burn very quickly

Other options that seem to be out there are Strogs (straw logs), Paper briquettes, I am sure there are many more but what have people found to be the most efficient and best value for money.

Thanks

Christy
