Clean Burn Technology

A large portion of the wood burning stoves we sell are Defra approved, meaning they meet stricter standards for emissions when used with wood and other approved fuels.

To meet the requirements of this standard, Defra-approved stoves have an upgraded top air vent that prevents the user closing the top vent completely. Closing the top air vent too far will restrict the flow of oxygen to the fire, which causes it to smolder instead of burning.

This is done by using stainless steel liners, as well as convection systems that force air down the chimney even after the fire has been extinguished.

A Defra Approved Stove also features an adjustment on the top vent, which prevents it from being closed completely. When you shut off the air supply to the stove it stops burning properly and begins to smoke and create excessive smoke. Defra approved stoves allow you to shut the vent just a little but not all the way so that the fire continues to burn at the lower temperature and be in compliance with UK regulations.
