These fine particles can get into lungs and cause respiratory illness or even heart disease.

Fortunately, the latest DEFRA approved multi fuel stoves are designed to reduce the amount of this harmful gas. The majority of the stoves available here at The Stove Yard are SIA Ecodesign Ready and have been subjected to rigourous testing to ensure that they are operating well under the new limit of manufacturing of 3g/hour of smoke emissions for appliances installed in Smoke Control Areas.

Therefore, if you intend to use your stove for sleeping burning (i.e overnight burning) then it is important to choose a Defra Approved stove cannot extend your fuel supply as as a non-Defra model.

Smoke control regulations

DEFRA approved wood-burning stoves may be used in smoke-control zones (check online to see if you live in one). In areas with smoke control the emissions from log burners are controlled to avoid nuisance smoke. This prevents the release of harmful substances into the air that can upset neighbors and cause health issues for those living near. Making sure you use an DEFRA approved stove in a smoke-free area is essential to avoid a fine in the event that the stove is found to be emitting excessive quantities of smoke.

Smoke control zones are generally urban areas with a high population density, like large cities and towns. The primary purpose of smoke control regulations is to preserve standards for air quality by limiting the release of particulates into the air. Multi-fuel stoves endorsed by Defra comply with the regulations and have been certified to guarantee minimal emissions. This is essential to ensure the safety and health of the people who live in these areas.

It is important to remember, too, that smoke-free stoves must be used in conjunction with approved fuels, such as dry well-seasoned wood. It is against the law to burn damp or wet fuels in a smoke-control area as these can cause excessive smoke. Burning household waste such as old furniture, pallets, and fencing is also prohibited as they’ve likely been treated with chemicals that could release pollutants into the air when burned. To reduce the amount of emissions, it is recommended to choose firewood with an average moisture content of less than 20 percent. This will ensure that the stove is operated correctly and will prevent the emission of excessive amounts. Woodsure Ready to Burn is an excellent choice for purchasing firewood that meets this requirement.
