Hi all,
Looking to try alternatives for heating the living room as that's where we spend most of out time.
Typical cost for one days fire:
1 X 1.79 for a firelog (those things that burn for 2 hours)
1/2 bag of logs @ 3.40/2 = 1.70
1/2 pack of briquettes : ~ 2 euro
So that's a rough total of €5.50 per night for a fire for fuel.
What are the alternatives out there? I picked up a pack of "strogs" last night and ended up putting three on the fire (5 in a pack at 2.99!) They wont last in this house.
havent tried coal yet but cant imagine that being cost effective either.
Anyone tried anything that is good value and burns longer than the norm whilst giving out great heat?
