Multi Fuel Stoves

Multi fuel stoves differ from wood stove burning as they can burn smokeless fuel and sustainable solid fuels like peat and coal (look for approved fuels that are suitable for use in Smoke Control Areas). They come with a riddling or static grate that allows air to circulate underneath the fire for efficient combustion.

The ashes then fall into an ash pan beneath which needs to be regularly emptied. The majority of multi-fuel stoves have additional air vents that either feed the flames or provide secondary or third combustion.

Easy to Operate

Multi fuel stoves can burn different materials other than wood. This allows you to be more flexible in the kind of fuel you can make use of for your campfire. This could help you save money over time by switching from costly logs to smokeless fuel.

Most multi fuel stoves include an elevated riddling grate that is designed to allow for the combustion of wood, peat or turf briquettes as as coal. This is a fantastic option if you are planning on using your stove for camping in a Smoke Control Area because it offers the option to use smokeless fuel (as long as it is DEFRA approved).

Many multifuel stoves also include air wash systems to help prevent soot buildup on the glass's interior. Soot build-up is not just unsightly, but also affects your ability to see the flame and can impact the output of heat from the stove. This feature is standard on all of our stoves, and we recommend it to all users.

A multifuel stove can also be used with liquid or solid fuels, making it more versatile. This means you have more options when it comes to food, especially if you aren't able to access wood or are unable to carry a fuel source in your backpack. This could make a huge difference to how you feel about hiking.

Multifuel stoves are generally very simple to operate. They have a single, air control that is specifically designed to supply the correct amount of primary and secondary air according to the location of the stove in its burn cycle and the type of fuel being used. This makes it simple to set up a stove quickly and easily on the field. Some models also have an electric spark igniter which can be useful when it comes to lighting the stove. It adds a bit of weight to the stove, but it is a great option for a variety of users.

Easy to Clean

Multi fuel stoves are very easy to keep clean and looking good, especially when you regularly sweep any ash or dust. You can also use soft towels to clean the stove's surface in the event that they're not damp. Keep your stove clean to prevent any damage that might be caused by a build-up of the flammable residue.

The air wash system is present in the majority of modern models of multi-fuel stoves. This allows a flow of cool air to flow down the glass on your stove, which helps prevent byproducts of the fire from settling and obscuring your view of the flame. This is a wonderful feature to have in multi fuel stoves but you will still need to clean the glass regularly on your multi fuel stove.

Usually when you clean your multi fuel stove, you will need to empty the ash pan that is built-in beneath the grate, which is fairly easy to do. You will also need to clean the secondary and primary vents regularly. The two vents inside your chimney are designed to eliminate gasses that have been emitted. This is important if you burn coal regularly since it may create more harmful byproducts.

It is recommended that you get your chimney cleaned more often if you use coal regularly in your multifuel stove than only burning wood. This is due to the fact that coal releases more carbon dioxide than logs. Cleaning your chimney more often will help prevent a build up of dangerous creosote deposits in your chimney, which could result in a chimney fire or cause the flue to start leakage.

It is also important to use quality fuel for your multifuel stove. Ideally, it is recommended to use a mix of hardwoods and softwoods. Hardwoods have a stronger grain which is much more resistant to soot that could form on the inside of your multifuel stove. If you use a quality fuel, you should find that your stove's glass is not as easily blackened and will last longer between intervals of cleaning by a specific stove cleaner spray.

Longevity

Multifuel stoves provide a variety of fuel options. They allow the burning of logs, wood, pellets, coal, and smokeless fuel in a controlled environment. They can be less expensive than traditional wood-burning stoves because you can get the fuel from local sources. You can also change it to suit your budget and requirements.

A multifuel stove can also burn liquid biofuels like white gas (Coleman Fuel) isobutane/propane as well as kerosene, iso jet-A fuel and aviation fuel. This gives the user the option to use their stove nearly anywhere in the world. It is ideal for cycling, backpacking or even traveling to remote locations because these stoves can run on fuel that is available locally.

They can reach high temperatures, which help them burn fuel more efficiently. The hotter fire allows for secondary combustion to take place which further enhances the output of heat from the stove. Multifuel stoves have air controls that can be adjusted to suit the type of fuel being used. This ensures the proper mix of secondary and primary air is delivered, which helps in the overall efficiency.

The aluminum shell of the multifuel stove helps retain heat for a longer period after the fire has been put out. This is an advantage over wood burning stoves which lose heat faster after the flames have gone out.

A multifuel stove also is a lot more user-friendly than a wood-burning stove. These stoves come with easy to understand control knobs that can be operated by one person making them easier for a family or a group of people to use. The stoves should be monitored at all times, as they can cause carbon monoxide poisoning in the absence of. When using a multifuel stove it is crucial to burn only wood that has an average moisture content of less than 20%. Never burn household coal, waste or other petroleum-based fuels that have a high percentage of petroleum on a multifuel appliance. These can damage the appliance and generate dangerous gases such as carbon monoxide.

Eco-Friendly

A multifuel stove is a good choice if you want to save money and the environment while preserving the environment. They can be used for burning wood, logs or coal in addition to peat, anthracite and peat. They can also heat a water tank by acting as a boiler. These are perfect for people who reside in areas where firewood is scarce or who want to reduce their heating costs by switching to electric heat.

To help make a stove eco-friendly it's important to make use of wood that is of good quality and has been seasoned or kiln dried. This will decrease the amount of smoke and toxins released. It is also essential to have a multifuel stove that meets Ecodesign 2022 standards. This means that it will generate more heat using less fuel, and it should be able to achieve an efficiency during the season of at least 65%.

Multifuel stoves are able to burn a variety of materials that's the reason they are so versatile and popular. However, the combustion process produces a lot of waste and pollutants, which is why it's important to keep the stove regularly cleaned. Modern multifuel stoves come with air wash systems that automatically clean the glass, allowing you to see the flames clearly.

Multifuel stoves can be used in a situation of emergency as a source of heat in the event that the power goes off. If you do decide to use your stove as an emergency source of heat it is essential to burn only one or two logs at a time, and not more than one log burning stove burning stoves (King explained in a blog post) per hour. This will prevent the ash from building up and preventing it from blocking your primary air supply.
