Defra Approved Multifuel Stoves

Defra approved multifuel stoves are a great option for those living in areas that are smoke-free. They are very clean and can burn wood or authorised smokeless fuels.

The Defra Logo is usually displayed on the appliance, or in its specification to show that it can be used to create Smoke Control Areas. They also have high energy ratings and DEFRA Stoves installation low emissions.

Clean Burn Technology

Many of the wood burning stoves we offer are Defra approved, meaning they are able to meet the strictest standards for emissions when used 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 tested by an independent lab to ensure they don't produce excessive smoke. A stove that is approved by Defra will include features such as secondary and tertiary combustion which can maximize the amount of energy and minimise harmful gasses.

The Defra approved stoves often have an 'SE' logo (which stands out for smoke exempt) or SE after their name. This means that the stove was independently tested and can be used in a Smoke Control Area with logs or other approved solid fuels. The testing procedure includes several tests to test the stove's performance in various conditions, and to verify that it produces at least 5 grams of particles per kilogram when burning wood.

To meet this standard, DEFRA stoves installation approved stoves have a modified top air control that prevents the user from closing it all the way. If you close the top DEFRA stoves air vent too far will restrict the flow of oxygen into the fire, which can cause it to smolder instead of burning. If you attempted to do this with a non-Defra-approved stove, you'd be in violation of the law and could be charged for a nuisance smoke offence.

The best way to avoid nuisance smoke when using the wood burner is to buy kiln-dried or seasoned wood. It is wood that has been dried for a long period of time which reduces the amount of moisture to less than 20 percent. You can determine the moisture content of your wood using a simple wood moisture meter.

You can reduce the amount nuisance smoke produced by a stove that is Defra-approved by using only dry, well-seasoned and well-seasoned logs that have been dried and kiln-fired or spruce. You should never use damp, wet, or unseasoned wood because it will produce a lot of nuisance smoke and could lead to a fine from the local authority.

Smoke Control Area Approval

DEFRA approved stoves comply with the strict standards for air quality set by the government. They can be powered by various fuels including wood and smokeless substances that are 'authorized' in Smoke Control Areas.

The smoke from burning untreated wood or other wet fuels in a stove that isn't DEFRA approved or exempt from DEFRA will cause a lot of irritation to your neighbors. It can also cause problems with local air quality, especially if you live in an urban area. You may be charged with a fine or even arrested when you burn fuels that are not authorized in an area designated as a Smoke Control Area or use an appliance that is not made to use smokeless fuels.

Defra approved stoves are constructed with secondary and tertiary systems of combustion that allow fuel to be burned at lower temperatures which, in turn, produces less particulate matter (PM2.5). This is done by using stainless steel liners and a convection system which forces air down the chimney even after the fire has been removed. This allows stoves to burn wood more efficiently and create less emissions.

A Defra Approved Stove also features an adjustment to the top vent that prevents it from being closed all the way. When you shut off the air supply to a stove, it stops burning properly and starts to smolder and produce a lot of smoke. Defra approved stoves will allow you to shut the vent just a little but not all the way so the fire can continue to burn at an lower temperature, and still conform to UK regulations.

When selecting a new stove that is approved by Defra, it is important to take into consideration the style and design, and whether it will fit into the style of your home. There are many designs and sizes to choose from including traditional fireplaces and inglenooks to more contemporary designs that look stunning in open-plan living areas.

Most Defra approved stoves come with an outlet for a 5kW flue, which means they are legal in Smoke Control Areas, which comprise the majority of UK towns and cities. This will also reduce your installation costs since the stove will only require a 5" flue liner instead a more costly 6" liner.
