However, if they are not maintained well or using wood of poor quality the smoke generated by them can contain fine particles (known as particulate pollution) that can cause irritation to the lungs and other organs. Carbon monoxide, toxic air pollutants like formaldehyde and benzene, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are also in the. Inhaling this kind of air pollution may cause lung irritation, coughing, wheezing and asthma attacks and may even lead to serious health conditions such as heart disease, cancer, or premature death.

Some people fear that using a wood burning stove could contribute to climate change, but this is not necessarily true. Wood burning is a carbon neutral energy source. Through the life of a tree, it absorbs carbon dioxide and when it is burned, the absorbed carbon is released back into the atmosphere.

Because the wood is harvested locally, it reduces the amount of pollution that is released during transportation. It is crucial to choose hardwoods that have been seasoned and of top quality. They will burn longer and more evenly than softwoods.

They also have particulate levels 60% or more below the DEFRA limit.

A wood burning stove with an acatalytic converter or fireplace hybrid unit could provide the most efficient low-carbon solution for heating. These units ignite gasses and particles that were ignited during the initial burning in a second phase by mixing them superheated air. The remaining gases and particulates are then pumped through a catalytic combustion unit to create a final and third combustion. This further reduces emissions to levels far below the standards set by the government.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel with the highest efficiency. This results in the emission of minimal particles into the air when burning wood. The air management system of the stove controls the intake and venting of gases to ensure the combustion process takes place in a sealed and controlled environment. It also regulates the flame's height to minimize emissions and increase the heat output.

This means that your chimney as well as the surrounding area will be cleaner than older stoves.

Air pollution caused by wood burning is an important factor in poor urban air quality.

Smoke from poorly combusted timber has fine particulate pollution and harmful air pollutants such as carbon monoxide, as well as other dangerous air pollutants such as nitrogen oxides as well as volatile organic compounds (VOCs), benzene, and formaldehyde.

Airborne dust can also damage surfaces in your home, giving them a gritty sensation.
