Clean Burn Technology

A majority of the wood-burning stoves we offer are Defra approved, which means they are able to meet the strictest standards for emissions when used in conjunction with wood and other approved fuels. This is due to the fact that these stoves are designed to use a range of different fuels and have been independently tested to ensure that they don't emit excessive smoke. A stove that is approved by Defra will include features such as secondary and tertiary burning that maximize the use of energy consumed and minimize harmful gases.

To meet this standard Defra approved stoves come with an altered top air control which prevents the user from closing it completely. If you close the top vent too far will reduce the flow of oxygen to the fire and cause it to smoulder rather than burn.

Defra approved stoves are made with secondary and tertiary combustion methods that allow fuel to be burned at lower temperatures, which in turn produces less particulate matter (PM2.5). This is achieved by using stainless steel liners and convection technology that pushes air down the chimney even after the fire is put out. This allows the stove to burn wood and other fuels more efficiently and producing significantly less emissions.

A Defra Approved Stove will also include an adjustment for the top air vent to prevent you from closing it down completely. When you cut the air supply to the stove, it will stop burning properly, and smoulder a lot, and then start producing smoke.
