Read moreSolid fuel appliances are a popular choice for boats, especially for narrowboats and barges. The traditional choice for heating, solid fuel has a marine heritage stretching back centuries. In the modern world, there are some considerations to be made before choosing your solid fuel appliance.
What Solid Fuel Appliances are available?
Solid fuel appliances take two differing categories of fuel. Some are designed to just burn wood, others are made to burn coal as well as wood.
Woodburners are a good solution for taking the chill out of autumn and spring evenings. The energy within the wood is unlocked quicker, which gives higher heat at a fast rate. This also means refuelling more frequently. Woodburners can’t burn smokeless fuel/coal, as they have no grate. A grate is essential to allow enough air into the fire when burning coal/smokeless fuel. Without enough air, the fire won’t burn right, might go out, and won’t produce the desired heat.
Multifuel appliances can burn wood, coal, and other smokeless fuels. Smokeless fuel is slower burning than wood. This means it will take longer to produce good heat, but once the fire is going it will last for many hours. Residential boaters generally find that multifuel stoves can keep them warm throughout the night.
