What is a DEFRA Wood Burning Stoves Approved Stove?

If you're planning to purchase a wood-burning stove and you live in a smoke-free area then it is important that you choose the DEFRA exempt or approved stove.

Smoke Control Areas are designated by local authorities and the main reason for them is to reduce the amount of smog from being released into towns and cities across the UK. In the past, people would use whatever fuel they liked in their homes. This resulted in heavy pollution in many areas and led to health problems for the inhabitants. In the past, there was no law to regulate this, but today we must adhere to the regulations.

Defra regulations were created to ensure safety for the public. They specify the stoves that are permitted in certain areas, and which fuels are allowed. This means that should you reside in a smoke controlled area then you should only use a DEFRA stove and only burn approved fuels like pellets, logs or Durable Stoves coal. If you buy a non-DEFRA stove and burn disallowed fuels then you could be punished up to PS1000.

A Defra approved stove provides the least amount of air needed for combustion which results in low smoke emissions. This is the only way to ensure that you are able to legally burn wood or other authorized fuels within a Smoke Control Area.

In order to be DEFRA approved wood burners and multi-fuel stoves have to have a moisture content of 20% or less to prevent excessive smoke. To achieve this the wood has to be seasoned and ideally sourced from the Forestry Commission's "Woodsure Ready to Burn' program.

If you are buying a stove to use in a Smoke Control Area then make sure it's got the Defra logo or a 'SE' in the middle of its name, which signifies that it is smoke exempt. The Defra logo is very easily identifiable and is widely accepted by the industry.

In compliance with Building Regulations

If a wood burning stove is DEFRA approved, it means that it has been rigorously tested and is in compliance with building regulations. This ensures that the stove is safe to use and that it has a correctly installed flue system. This helps reduce indoor air pollution and prevents fire hazards. This is especially important for those who live in smoke control zones, where it is illegal to use unauthorised fuels.

DEFRA stoves also comply with strict regulations governing the emission of smoke in areas that are smoke-controlled. These regulations are primarily designed to minimize the amount of particulate matter that is released into the air during combustion.

The latest DEFRA wood burning stoves have been specifically designed to achieve this through the use of advanced combustion systems that don't restrict the airflow inside the firebox. This allows the wood to be burned more thoroughly and quickly and reduces the release of particles into the air. DEFRA stoves also come with an additional combustion system that reduces emissions further by re-burning unburned combustibles.

It is possible to install an appliance that doesn't conform to DEFRA regulations, but this will require significant modifications to your chimney or flue. It will likely require a structural alteration which may require planning permission. In order to avoid this, we recommend always choosing a DEFRA certified stove when buying a new fireplace or wood-burning stove.

Reduced Emissions

The modern technology used in DEFRA approved wood burning stoves makes them more eco-friendly than older open stoves or fires. If used properly an appliance that burns wood is carbon neutral. This is due to the fact that trees absorb carbon dioxide when they grow, and release it back into the atmosphere when they are burnt. This is the reason they are a green alternative to fossil fuels to heat your home.

The most significant issue when using a wood-burning fireplace is the emission. The smoke that is released by a wood-burning stove contains ultra-fine particulates which can cause health problems. These particles can cause breathing problems, aggravate asthma symptoms and make you feel sick. They can also increase your risk of developing heart disease or cancer.
