Cost-Effective

Because anthracite burns so slowly, it produces more heat for less cost. Use our Fuel Cost Calculator to see how much anthracite can save you in heating costs.

Convenient

Blaschak anthracite is available in both bulk and bags. Like our bulk anthracite, the bagged anthracite is carefully cleaned, washed and sized prior to bagging. The 40 lb bags are conveniently accessorized with sturdy handles, making for easy carrying and use.

Clean

Anthracite is an environmentally friendly option. Anthracite burns with virtually no smoke or emissions, producing no soot or creosote buildup.
