Reduced emissions

In addition to being environmentally sustainable, Defra approved multi fuel stoves can reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the home. The main pollutant emitted by burning solid fuels like coal and wood is ultra-fine particulate matter also referred to as PM2.5. These fine particles can get into lungs and cause respiratory illness and heart disease.

Modern multi-fuel stoves approved by DEFRA are designed to cut down on levels of this toxic substance. The majority of the stoves we feature here at The Stove Yard are SIA Ecodesign Ready and have been subjected to rigourous testing to ensure that they are operating well below the new manufacturing limit of 3g/hour of smoke emissions for appliances installed in Smoke Control Areas.

The most recent DEFRA-approved stoves like those that we carry, feature an additional and third-generation of combustion system that reduces the carbon footprint of users and air pollution. The use of these systems allows you to burn more volatile gases created by solid fuels like wood, and convert them into heat energy. You can reduce the amount of fuel you use to achieve the same temperature which can lower the cost of fuel.

This is a wonderful feature, but it's important to note that Defra approved stoves don't offer the same time to burn as non-Defra certified stoves. This is due to a constant supply of secondary and third-level combustion air is needed to prevent the fuel from smouldering. If you are planning to make use of the stove for the purpose of slumber burn (i.e. overnight burning), a Defra Approved model cannot allow you to extend your fuel supply to the same extent as a non Defra model.

Making sure you use a DEFRA approved stove in a smoke controlled area is essential to avoid fines if the stove is found to be emitting excessive amounts of smoke.

Smoke control areas are usually urban locations where the population density is higher, typically including large towns and cities. The primary purpose of smoke control regulations is to maintain air quality standards by limiting the emission of particulates in the air. Multi-fuel stoves approved by Defra are in compliance with the regulations and have been certified to provide the lowest emissions. This is essential to ensure the safety and health for those living in these areas.

It is also important to note that smoke-free stoves should only be used with approved fuels, such as dry well-seasoned, well-seasoned firewood. It is illegal to burn damp fuels or wet wood inside a smoke control zone as they can generate excessive smoke. It is unlawful to burn household waste such as pallets, old furniture and fencing. These items have been treated with chemicals that can release toxic substances when they are burned. Choose firewood that has a moisture content of 20 percent or less is a good idea to limit emissions and ensure the stove is used in a safe manner. Woodsure Ready to Burn is an excellent choice for purchasing firewood that meets the requirements.
