Differences Between Wood Burning Stoves and Multi Fuel Burning
Both have their own benefits but what are the main differences between wood burning and multi fuel burning models?
The differences, for you, may mainly fall down to personal preference or the availability of fuels in your area, the following facts are things to consider.
However, both can be very efficient in heating your home and can even fuel your central heating system
With rising fuel prices becoming a regular thing, both wood burning and multi fuel burning stoves may be, or soon to become, a cheaper alternative.
Wood Burning Stoves
A wood burning stove burns wood best when the wood fuel is sat on a surface of ash. For this reason, there is no grate and instead just a flat surface to lay the wood on.
They can only be used to burn wood as they are specifically designed for that, so it is best to be sure that wood as a fuel is a long term and viable option before buying.
Wood is best seasoned or dried and stored properly to ensure a good burn.
Natural wood is considered a fuel that is low in carbon and therefore better for the environment than other types of solid fuel. It can also be a very cost effective way of heating your home.
Multi Fuel Burning Stoves
A multi fuel stove, although not having the benefit of the flat surface which wood burns best on, can still burn wood.
As the name suggests there are multiple fuels that they can burn. As well as wood they can burn smokeless coal, turf or peat bricks, anthracite and a wide range of smokeless fuels on the market specifically for multi fuel burning stoves and fires.
The fact that you have more choice in the types of fuel you can burn means you can shop around more for the best prices.
