Leading manufacturers like Arada, Parkray, and Stovax have created a range of Defra stoves that are traditionally styled but come with the most recent in clean burning technology. These stoves can burn a variety of fuels, including smokeless coal.

Efficient Combustion

The wood stoves from Defra utilize the most advanced technology of combustion to ensure safe and efficient burning. They do this by ensuring that the fire is not starved of oxygen. This ensures that any combustibles which are not fully burnt will not escape down the chimney into the air which could cause pollution.

Reduced Emissions

A large portion of the Defra stoves that we sell are certified as 'Ecodesign Ready. This means they've been regulated to be as efficient and as green as the EU permits. The Ecodesign regulations have higher standards of efficiency and emissions than the government's 'clearSkies" scheme.

The primary benefit of a Defra approved stove is that it will produce much less smoke than a non-certified stove. The reason is because they are designed to ensure constant flow of air into the fire. This is accomplished by having a secondary, and sometimes even a tertiary air intake. This prevents the stove from being starved of air during the process of combustion and reduces the amount of black smoke it releases.

These modern stoves are also designed to emit less harmful particulate pollution than the previous models. This is crucial because particulate contaminants can enter the bloodstream. They are then carried around the body and lodge in the lungs or the heart. This could lead to serious health issues and even premature death.

Despite the fact that these stoves emit far less harmful pollutants than older models and emit less harmful pollutants, the EU is still seeking to reduce pollution from all sources. It has been associated with asthma and other respiratory ailments.

The government has released an Environment Plan draft to help achieve the new air quality goals. The plan is aimed at reducing average PM 2.5 concentrations in the UK to 10 micrograms per cubic metre by 2040. This will require the reduction of the emissions of domestic fuels, which includes wood stoves.

To achieve this, it will make it more difficult to buy and install stoves that aren't certified in smoke control zones. Stoves that aren't approved are likely to be fined by local authorities up to PS1,000 for each hour they emit smoke.

Some stoves have been fitted with a top air control modified so that it cannot be closed all the way. Shut off the air supply to a log burner to prevent it from burning and generating black smoke.

Stoves that are Defra approved also typically allow you to use a 5" flue liner with them when burning wood, while stoves that are not DEFRA approved require a 6" liner which is too large for a lot of UK chimneys.
