Produced to the highest quality standards, solid fuel consistently gives high heat output and exceptional 'value-for-money' performance.
To get the best out of the appliance and to reap the maximum benefits in terms of fuel efficiency, it is important to use the fuel that is recommended for your appliance.
Incorrect fuels can damage the appliance and flue and can lead to a dangerous build-up of deposits which will block the chimney and cause toxic carbon monoxide (CO) fumes to be emitted into the room.
Always buy your solid fuel from an Approved Coal Merchant

The SFA recommend that in addition to the above measures, solid fuel users fit a CO alarm complying with BS EN 50291:2001 in the same room as the appliance.
CO alarms are a mandatory requirement for new installations.
If your appliance begins to burn slowly, goes out frequently or if you smell or suspect fumes: Open doors and windows.
Carefully put out the fire, or allow it to burn itself out.
Do not stay in the room any longer than necessary.
Do not attempt to re-light the appliance until a professional has checked it.
