Wood/Coal/Briquettes...where are you buying it?

[ajapale]

In Cork the old lad uses cosyflame nuggets in their stove. he gets them in 20Kg bags around the togher area. any coal will do but double (small lumps) will work best.

Coal size grades from slack to nuts/peas to singles (small lumps) to doubles (bigger lumps) to trebbles and on up to cobbles (small boulders!)

Cork is a smokeless area (meath is not) so be sure what ever you use in Cork complies with the smokeless fuel leglislation.

Do smokeless regulations mean you can not sell fuel that smokes in certain zones but that you can buy it elsewhere and burn it in a smokeless zone?

 

[ajapale]

Yes, the marketing sale and distribution of smokey coal is banned in smokeless areas. You can burn what you want.

Thats what the fathers mate does, goes down to Bandon, buys coal there and carts it back to smoke in Cork!
