Fuels For Multi Fuel Stoves

One of the big advantages of multi fuel stoves is that they relieve the reliance on fossil fuels such as gas, oil and electricity which are becoming increasingly more expensive. And by not having to use such material you are reducing your carbon footprint and doing your bit to help the fight against environmental damage as using this kind of stove allows you to burn renewable fuel that is much more environmentally friendly than the fossil variety.

One of the best alternatives is wood. Obviously this has been burned throughout the millennia, and in fact there are also wood burners available. However, if you choose to use a multi fuel stove you will be able to burn other materials as well.

When burning wood you will need to have a ready access to logs, so you will more than likely have to find a supplier. But by choosing to use wood you will be using a fuel that is renewable.

Wood, of course, is not the only fuel available. Another option, a by product of wood, is wood pellets. These are dehydrated compressed wood chips, and are becoming increasingly popular as an alternative source of fuel. They are easier to store than logs and do not have to be chopped up.

Corn pellets, a by product of wheat, are also a suitable fuel for your multi fuel stove. Just like wood pellets, they are manufactured out of renewable products and are easy to store.

Though the desire to use renewables and reduce the reliance on fossil fuels may be a major factor in the decision to acquire a stove there are also solid fuels available. Though made from coal they have reduced C02 emissions and meet clean air requirements.
