That's great, if they don't have on stock I always can go to Dunboyne

Dunboyne also sell the large chunks of coal too. Dunno how much that is do.

Thought is was illegal to burn coal in Dublin?

delta_bravo

That doesn't seem to be smokeless coal which would be illegal in Dublin.

Gate Automation

Smokeless coal is permitted I hope

Anybody have full Government Act what is legal and what is illegal to burn in fireplace ? I try found something about this question in net, but is not many, I just found this:

Although not explicitly mentioned in the thread the two counts (two sides of the same coin) are as follows:
1)The distribution, marketing and sale of Turf, Peat Briquettes and timber blocks is explicitly allowed under the terms of the CA Act 1990.
2)There is no ban on the burning of any solid fuel ( including smokey bituminous coal, Turf, Briquettes etc) in the smoke control areas.

easygoing39

The 1990 act does not refer to the burning of smokey coal,only the sale of it.

That's a pity, I'm sick of my next door neighbours constantly burning smoky coal. My velux windows are permanently filthy because of it.

I think my coalman is ripping me off - I always but the expensive polish coal - but it is nowhere near as hot as it used to be - I know there is cheaper version - and I think he is giving me this - HOW DO I SPOT THE DIFF?

20 min from Castleknock

Wish I had a real fire!

i got some just past batterstown in the old petrol station last year,but i drove there today and its closed. is the one in the previous reply a few miles past the small garden centre(rose)?

Gate Automation

It was close approximately month ago, i get one time in this year 2 bags of coal, and when i was drive next time it was close, and i get from shop near Trim.

RTT

I bought that stuff in the yellow bag last year and it didn't burn well. Was always left with large chunks in the grate the following day which didn't burn well. I bought 5 bags of Bord na Mona and 5 bales of brickets yesterday in Tj O'Mahonys in Kilshane cross for€90. Thats working out at just under €15 a bag. Its burning pretty well and great heat from it.

horse7

what stuff did you buy

RTT

Horse7, its the Bord na Mona Standard smokless 40kg. Saw it for sale in a few places for €19-€20 a bag so the Kilshane cross offer was pretty good I think. No links whatsoever with TJ O'Mahony by the way!

Gate Automation

I buy lot things there but never ask about coal I tray next time. I can confirm, yellow bag has bad coal, week fire, also green bag has week coal. Now I get premium polish coal in white bag with sign TOP, and it's ok.

could you give directions from castleknock please.

Gate Automation

Put this coordinates 53.550099,-6.749783 on maps.google.ie It's somewhere there on the right hand side when you drive from Dublin, it's look like entrance to farm.

horse7

thanks.

gjc

Would that November offer still be running to you think. Perhaps will give a ring first Ta

Gate Automation

on this offer you save 40 cent per bag

But i'm disappointed this coal (top premium polish) from that place near Trim which i give earlier. First 2 bag was great, then i get next 4, exactly the same and they sold me very bad coal, on top of the bag is good coal, and on the bottom is very bad coal, like black stone which don't burn and don't give heat. I need tray now coal from T J O'Mahonny from Kilshane cross

How does Coal stack up against Burning Logs better heat?lasts longer?
Bag of logs in lidl is about 3.75
