Wood briquettes and firewood briquettes are pressed wood for fireplace and stove. Anyone who wants to buy wood briquettes, buy firewood briquettes or buy hardwood briquettes should check shape, wood type and residual moisture — not just the sale price.
Buying wood briquettes cheaply
«Cheap» often means a large pack or pallet. The wood briquette price per tonne or per pallet can only be compared fairly if the heating value and ash are similar. Very cheap goods can mean more moisture and more ash.
Ordering & delivery of wood briquettes
When ordering wood briquettes and for wood briquette delivery, dry storage matters: no pallet on wet ground, protection from rain. Damp briquettes swell and burn worse.
Wood briquette pallet / buying a pallet
Searches for wood briquette pallet and buying a wood briquette pallet usually mean the package size. A full pallet is cheaper per kilogram but needs space and a dry base.
Buying RUF briquettes
Buying RUF briquettes refers to the well-known block shape made of pressed wood. RUF formats are stackable and often easy to dose. Still compare moisture and origin — the brand name doesn't replace a check.
Briquettes or pellets?
Briquettes suit manual stoves and fireplaces; wood pellets suit automatic boilers. More on pellets: buying wood pellets.
