Homefire Smokeless Fuels


 

20th May 2026

The Homefire depot in Dumfries sadly closed its doors last week. Since then, we’ve had lots of enquiries in the shop from customers looking for an alternative supplier. We are responding to these enquiries by talking to Homefire and will soon be stocking a range of smokeless fuels and house coal to help supply those people in Dumfries who prefer to use smokeless and coal products.

Coming soon to our Dumfries Shop

Homefire Brazier

10kg and 20kg bags

The best-selling smokeless fuel in the UK.

Brazier Smokeless Coal is a clean burning, compact smokeless fuel specially designed for use on open fires and multi fuel stoves. It gives good performance, burning longer than house coal.

An economy brazier coal, recommended for use on open fires and multi-fuel stoves.

Homefire Smokeless Ovals

25kg bags

One of Homefire’s most popular smokeless fuels for multi-fuel stoves and open fires, slow-burning Homefire Ovals pack tightly in the grate to provide maximum heat and minimum waste.

Homefire Ovals last up to 40% longer than house coal, generate up to 20% more heat, and produce up to 80% less smoke. It’s not unusual for a Homefire Ovals fire to last for up to nine hours.

Homefire Ecoal

20kg bags

Ecoal is made using crushed olive stones, a natural waste product from olive oil production, which is replenished every year without chopping down trees.

This smokeless eco fuel is easy to light and long-lasting and burns with an attractive flame.

Homefire Wildfire

20kg bags

Wildfire Smokeless 25kg is a high-performance replacement for natural coal.

Powerful and efficient, Wildfire is a seamless blend of three fuel types. Anthracite, bituminous coal, and petroleum coke.

Wildfire takes on the best characteristics of each fuel, making it easy to light, lower in ash, and a high heat producer.

Traditional House Coal

20kg bags

Traditional House Coal “Doubles”— best‑selling, top‑grade coal with excellent burn.

For sale in Scotland only. Not for smoke control areas.

Quick guide to choosing the best Wood Fuel for your stove and lifestyle.

*Break - We strongly recommend you break these briquettes in half (or less for very small stoves) because they do expand whilst burning and you don't want them to overfill the fire.
*Easy to light - We always use a Firelighter and Kindling Sticks to start our fires. Most briquettes are graded four stars to light because they are quite dense and require kindling.

Notes:

  • All stove and flue combinations tend to have different burning characteristics. Fuel that works well in my stove may not work so well in your stove, and vice-versa.
  • Most modern stoves are more efficient than most older stoves, meaning a modern quality stove will burn fuel more economically and generate more heat over a longer period.
  • Always try to burn fuel with a 'lick of flame'. Smouldering fuel to try to extend burn time is bad for your stove, flue and the environment due to unburned particulate matter in the smoke.
  • Be prepared to break briquettes into smaller sections to fit into your stove comfortably. Many briquettes do expand whilst burning and you don't want them to expand onto the glass.
  • The chart above indicates which briquettes are easy to break. Some are small enough so they don't need breaking. This makes for a cleaner environment around your stove.
  • All briquettes, except Everyday Value and Hotmax, benefit hugely from using kindling to light them. I suggest five kindling sticks will be sufficient, meaning a net should last 30 days.
