Heating Buyer’s Guide Multifuel fires Typically more heat is retained in the lower part of the room. This makes them suitable for older and less well insulated Fires that can burn both wood and coal for those who want homes with higher ceilings. longer lasting heat and prefer the flexibility of using a variety of fuels, for cost efficiency or availability. Wood quality Clean air and rural fires Using good burning wood is integral to achieving good performance from your fire. Use a moisture meter if unsure. Fires are designed to introduce air constantly to inhibit the production of smoke and to keep the burn process going. This therefore allows ‘cleaner air’ into the atmosphere hence the ‘Clean Air’ label. A rural fire allows us to ‘damper’ a fire allowing a much longer burn i.e. overnight. Convection vs radiant Convection wood fires heat the air immediately around them. They are air warmers and with the use of a heat transfer system can potentially heat your entire home. Best suited for well- insulated, non-draughty houses with low ceilings. Radiant wood fires release heat by radiating heat directly from Convection heat Radiant heat the outer surfaces of the wood fires.
