Can having a solid fuel fire really save you money?



 As gas oil and electricity prices continue to rise so does the demand for cheaper fuel, but can changing to solid fuel really save you money on your heating bills?


A recent energy summit held by our government urged homeowners to switch suppliers in a bid to save money and avoid falling into the ever increasing poverty fuel bracket. But what if you don’t have to put your money in the pocket of the big energy companies, what if you can put it back in your own pocket?

Detailed research into alternative forms of energy has shown that heating an average sized three bedroom semi can cost well over £960 per year using gas central heating. There are ways in which homeowners can reduce costs such as only heating the rooms they are using. 

Heating a main room using a smokeless fuel can cost around £450 a year on an open fire but as little as around £250 a year on a multi fuel stove, this is due to a stoves high efficiency. Many stoves are also available with boilers to replace or assist your current central heating system.
