Multi Fuel Boiler Stove

Multi-fuel boiler stoves burn various types of wood or smokeless fuels as well as coal. They can be connected to your current heating system to save money.

The grate should be removed in the event of burning coal, allowing air from below to reach the fire. Some multi fuel stoves feature a riddling grate and asphan to aid in this.

Energy Efficiency

A multi-fuel stove can burn a range of different types of solid fuels, including peat and turf briquettes, smokeless coal and anthracite. They can also be used to burn logs. This makes them more versatile than wood burning stoves as they offer the option of having a greater variety of fuels.

Modern Ecodesign compliant stoves have an efficiency of 80% plus. This means they produce less CO2 emissions and aid in meeting SAP energy requirements for primary heating. A lot of homes in the UK use a wood burning multi fuel stove to heat their living rooms and also have a central heating system (either gas boiler or hot water cylinder) as the main source of primary heating. This is usually supplemented by a secondary form of heating like convection or air hot water stove.
