This results in less smoke and less harmful emissions.

Another advantage of a wood-burning stove is that it's a low carbon source of fuel, which is great for the environment. Furthermore, by buying locally-sourced firewood, you're helping to support the active management of woodlands, which is a great option for wildlife.

If properly maintained, wood-burning fireplaces and fireplace stoves emit very little pollution when they are used with dry and seasoned wood. However, if they are not maintained well or using wood of poor quality, the smoke produced by them is contaminated with fine particles (known as particulate pollution) which can cause irritation to the lungs and other organs. Carbon monoxide, toxic air pollutants such as benzene and formaldehyde and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are also found in. Inhaling air pollution can cause irritation to the lungs and cause asthma attacks, wheezing, coughing and irritation of the lungs. It could also cause heart disease, cancer or premature death.

Many are concerned that wood-burning stoves can contribute to climate change, but this isn't necessarily true. The combustion of wood produces energy that is carbon-neutral. In the course of the life of a tree it absorbs carbon dioxide and when it is burned, the carbon absorbed is released back into the atmosphere.

Since the wood is sourced locally this decreases the amount of pollution emitted during transportation. It is also essential to select high-quality woods that are seasoned and seasoned as they will give an extended and more consistent burning time than softwoods.

Modern, EPA certified wood stoves and heaters (such as those manufactured by Charlton & Jenrick) have significantly lower emissions than older stoves. They have been tested and certified to meet 2020 EPA standards which are much more stringent than previous emissions limits.

All wood burning stoves should be fully vented to the outside of your home to ensure they do not create a haze of exhaust in your house. All of our DEFRA-exempt and clean burn stoves can produce extremely clear exhaust by keeping the flames in the vicinity of the wood logs and by using dry, seasoned firewood.

A wood-burning stove that has an acatalytic converter or hybrid unit can provide the best low-carbon heating solution. These units re-ignite gases and particles released from the initial combustion in a subsequent phase by mixing them with superheated air. The remaining gasses and particulates are transported through a catalytic combustion unit for a final third combustion. This further reduces emissions to levels far below the standards set by the government.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel at the highest efficiency possible. This results in the emission of a small amount of 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 flame height to maximise the output of heat and reduce emissions.

This means that your chimney and surrounding area will be cleaner than older stoves. Particulate matter, also known as particle pollution, from incompletely burned wood can trigger respiratory issues, such as wheezing and coughing, and contribute to heart diseases as well as stroke, diabetes and other serious ailments. Wood burning can also contribute to poor air quality in cities.

The smoke that is emitted from poorly combusted wood is a mixture of fine particulate pollution and hazardous air pollutants such as carbon monoxide volatile organic compounds nitrogen oxides, benzene, formaldehyde and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These particles can reach deep into the lungs and other organs, causing damage, discomfort and even death. Airborne dust can also contaminate the surfaces of your home, and can give the impression of a rough surface to rooms.
