What is a DEFRA Wood Burning Stoves Approved Stove?

If you're considering buying a wood burning stove and you live in a smoke control area it is crucial that you select the DEFRA exempt or approved stove. This is because stoves that aren't DEFRA exempt could deprive the burner of air, resulting in the fuel smouldering and generating excessive levels of emissions.

Clean Burn Technology

By choosing a DEFRA-approved stove you can reduce the amount of air pollution. The wood-burning stoves listed here have been designed to meet the strict smoke emission standards set by the UK Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs.

Clean burn technology is available in the DEFRA stoves we sell. This ensures that all wood or solid fuels you use are burned completely before they can escape up your chimney. The method they use to accomplish this is by using secondary and sometimes tertiary air intakes that ensure that every single speck of smoke is burned before it is able to leave the stove. This means that your chimney will remain cleaner for longer, and you'll have an efficient stove that requires less fuel to heat your home.

DEFRA stoves are available in both modern and traditional styles. This is because not everyone would like their new stove to be the main focal feature of their home and you may prefer a more discreet option that will blend into your decor. We also have a choice of freestanding and inglenook stoves that are suitable for DEFRA approval, meaning you can find the perfect stove for your fireplace chamber or inglenook.

You'll also be able to pick from a variety of DEFRA stoves which are multi-fuel compatible which means you have the versatility of being able to burn a wide range of authorised fuels. You can find the ideal DEFRA multi-fuel stove or wood burner for your home if you combine these features with a range of finishes and colours.

We are pleased to offer a large variety of DefrA Wood Burners that have been tested independently by HETAS and meet the stringent DEFRA emission standards. They are able to be used legally in Smoke Control Areas. If you reside in an area designated as a Smoke Control Area and you are a resident, it is important that you purchase an approved DEFRA stove. Using an unapproved appliance could result in a fine. If you'd like to know whether you're in a Smoke Control Area go to the DEFRA website or talk to your local authority.

Smoke Exempt

DEFRA approved wood burning stoves have been subjected rigorous testing to make sure they can be used in smoke-controlled zones. Bowland Stoves offers a range of DEFRA wood burning stoves that have low emissions, clean combustion and the possibility of saving money. You can also choose from a range of styles that will complement your home's style.

Local authorities designate Smoke Control Areas to reduce the amount of smog in UK cities and towns. Traditionally people would burn any type of fuel they wanted in their homes. This caused a lot of smog in various areas that caused health problems for the local population. In the past, there was no law to regulate this, but today we have to follow the guidelines.

Defra regulations have been created to ensure public safety. They define which stoves are allowed in certain areas, as well as which fuels are allowed. If you live in a place that is smoke-controlled, you can only use the DEFRA approved stove and burn only authorised fuels such as logs, coal or pellets. If you buy a non-DEFRA stove and you burn fuels that are not permitted, you could be punished up to PS1000.

A stove that is Defra-approved will provide the smallest amount of air for combustion that will result in a minimum amount of smoke emissions. This is the only way to be sure that you are legally able to burn wood and other authorised fuels within a Smoke Control Area.

To be DEFRA-approved, wood burning stoves and stoves that use multiple fuels must have minimum moisture content of 20% to avoid the formation of excessive smoke. To achieve this the wood must be properly seasoned and procured from the Forestry Commission's 'Woodsure Ready to Burn' program.

If you are purchasing a stove for use in a Smoke Control Area, make sure it has a Defra logo on it or a slash after its name. This signifies that the stove is smoke-exempt. The DEFRA certified stoves logo is very easily recognisable and it is widely used by the industry.

Compliant with Building Regulations

If a stove that burns wood is DEFRA permitted stoves approved, it means that it has been thoroughly tested and is in compliance with building regulations. This means that the stove is safe to use and has a properly installed flue system. This prevents fire hazards and limits the indoor air pollution. This is especially important for those living in areas with smoke control zones where it is illegal to burn unauthorised fuels.

Our selection of DEFRA stoves are available in various sizes, styles and finishes so you can choose the perfect option for your home. We have models in traditional and top DEFRA stoves modern styles with inglenook, freestanding and inset designs to fit any decor. You can also select from a wood burner or multi-fuel model depending on your preferences. All of our DEFRA stoves are fitted with clean-burn technology so you can be certain that they burn your chosen fuels effectively and efficiently.

DEFRA stoves are also designed to be in compliance with strict regulations regarding smoke emissions in smoke controlled areas. These regulations are primarily designed to minimize the amount of particulate matter released into the atmosphere when the stove is burning.

The most modern DEFRA wood-burning stoves are specifically designed specifically for this purpose, and feature advanced combustion systems that don't restrict airflow within the firebox. This allows the timber to be burned more thoroughly and fast which decreases the release of particulate matter into the air. DEFRA stoves also come with an additional combustion system that reduces emissions further by re-burning burned combustion fuels.

Although it is possible to install a non-DEFRA compatible stove, it will usually require significant modifications to the chimney and flue system. This would require a structural modification which may require planning permission. To avoid this, we suggest using a DEFRA certified stove when buying a new fireplace or wood-burning stove.

A DEFRA-approved kitchen appliance will usually also come with a 5" flue outlet (125mm). This means you can choose 5" vitreous enamel flue liner that will save you money on installation costs. This is an excellent option for those on a tight budget or who have chimneys with some difficult bends.

Emissions Reduction

When you are looking for a wood-burning stove, you will encounter several terms that might confuse you. The term DEFRA approved or DEFRA exempt stoves means that it is able to be used in smoke-free areas in the UK.

The stoves have been through a series of tests to ensure that they are in compliance with the UK's laws regarding smoking. This is accomplished by incorporating the most advanced clean-burn technology, which makes use of third-level combustion and secondary combustion to produce cleaner air inside your home. This reduces fuel consumption, as fuel is burned more efficiently.

As a result of the advanced technology involved, DEFRA wood burning stoves certified are much more sustainable than older open fires and stoves. In fact, when used correctly the wood stove is carbon neutral since trees absorb carbon dioxide during their growth. This is then released back into the atmosphere when they are burnt. They are therefore an eco-friendly alternative to fossil fuels.

However, the main concern with using a wood-burning stove is the emissions that are generated. The smoke that is released from a wood burning stove is a mixture of ultra-fine particles that are known to cause health issues. These particles can cause breathing problems, worsen asthma symptoms and make you feel sick. They can also increase the risk of cancer, heart disease, and premature death.

The domestic wood-burning industry is currently the largest source of PM2.5 pollution, causing three times as much pollution than road traffic. This is due to the fact that conventional wood stoves don't use clean burning technologies. This is why it is essential to buy a DEFRA exempt stove if you live in a smoke controlled area, or even if you don't, as they are more beneficial for the environment as well as your chimney.
