Anthracite Coal Cape Town

Anthracite coal—often simply called anthracite, hard coal or smokeless coal—is a hard, dense fuel known in Cape Town for its dark, glossy appearance and serious heat output. It burns hotter and longer than many softer coals, making it a familiar choice for fireplaces, coal stoves and heaters where steady warmth is wanted. Anthracite can take a little longer to get going than ordinary firewood, but once it is properly lit, its dense high-carbon makeup helps it hold a strong, steady heat for far longer. Once it is properly burning, anthracite produces lasting heat and good coals that can carry on for hours. It is a proper old-school fuel for cold Cape Town days and long winter evenings, especially for people who enjoy the solid warmth and character of a real coal fire.
