Petro Coke is the waste products from oil refining, kilo for kilo, it is three to four times more powerful than
ordinary house coal.
It is supplied by coal merchants and mixed with hard coke to form a pretty powerful combustible cocktail. If
the cocktail is mixed correctly it can be a good fuel, but we have found that the mixing process is not reliable
and sometimes a bag of fuel can be almost all petro coke.
There is a large variety of solid fuel available such as -:
•
Anthracite nuts 50mm. (Stovesse Nuts) Anthracite is a hard fuel and difficult to get going. It burns
with very little ash and gives off lovely wispy blue flames.
•
Furnacite is good and stays in well.
•
Coalite burns with plenty of clean flames and is very easy to light. It is designed specifically to be run
on open fires in smoke control zones.
LIGHTING.
Open the door and build a fire in the normal way using newspaper or firelighters first, then place plenty of
small chopped pieces of dry sticks onto the paper or firelighter.
