Defra Approved Multifuel Stoves

Defra approved multifuel stoves are a great choice for people living in smoke controlled areas. They are very clean and can burn wood or authorised smokeless fuels.

The Defra logo is usually visible on the appliance, or is written in the specification to show it can be used in Smoke Control Areas. They also have an energy efficiency rating that is high and low emissions.

Clean Burn Technology

We offer a variety of wood burning stoves that are approved by the Defra. This means that they meet the strictest emission standards when used with wood or other approved fuels. The stoves have been independently tested and are designed to burn a range of fuels. A stove that is Defra-approved will feature features like secondary and tertiary burning that maximize the use of energy used and reduce harmful gasses.

Defra approved multifuel stoves are usually marked with a "SE" logo or the word SE (which is a reference to smoke exempt) after their name which indicates that the stove has been tested by an independent third party to confirm that it is able to be used legally in a Smoke Control Area with logs and other approved solid fuels. The process of testing will comprise an array of tests to test the stove's performance under various conditions and to confirm that the stove can produce at least 5 grams of particulates per kilogram when burning wood.

To meet this standard, Defra approved stoves come with an altered top air control which prevents the user from closing it all the way. If you close the top vent too far will reduce the flow of oxygen to the fire, causing it to smoulder rather than burn. If you were to do this with a non-Defra-approved stove, you would be in violation of the law and may be prosecuted for nuisance smoke offences.

To avoid smoke, buy DEFRA stoves wood that has been kiln dried or seasoned. This wood has been dried over many years which has reduced the moisture content to below 20 percent. A simple wood moisture meter can be used to determine the moisture content in your wood.

You can reduce the amount nuisance smoke generated by a stove that is Defra-approved by making use of dry, well-seasoned and well-seasoned logs that have been burned or kiln dried. Never burn damp, buy DEFRA stoves wet or unseasoned wood. This can cause a lot more smoke and could result in you being penalized by the local authority.

Smoke Control Area Approval

DEFRA approved stoves are built to meet the strict air quality standards that are laid out by the government. These stoves can use a range of fuels such as wood and a few 'approved smokeless fuels that are permitted in Smoke Control Areas (see DEFRA's indicative interactive tool here).

The smoke that is produced by burning untreated wood or other wet fuels in a fireplace that isn't DEFRA approved or exempt will cause a lot of irritation to your neighbors. It can also impact the local air quality if you reside in an urban area. You may be charged with a fine or even arrested if you burn unauthorised fuels in the Smoke Control Area or use an appliance that was not designed to use smokeless fuels.

Defra approved stoves are constructed with secondary and tertiary combustion systems which help burn fuel at lower temperatures which, in turn, produces less particulate matter (PM2.5). This is achieved by the use of stainless steel liners as well as an exclusive convection system which pushes air down the chimney, even after the fire has been put out. This lets the stove burn wood and other fuels more efficiently, while emitting significantly less carbon dioxide.

A Defra Approved Stove also features an adjustment for the top vent that prevents it from being closed all the way. If you shut off the air supply to a stove, it stops burning properly and starts to smoke and create excessive smoke. Defra approved appliances will allow you to shut the vent but not completely so that the flame can burn at a lower heat and still conform to UK laws.

When you are choosing a new Defra approved stove, it is crucial to think about the design and style of the stove and if it will fit in with the interior decor of your home. There are a variety of styles and sizes available including traditional fireplaces and inglenooks, to more modern designs that look great in open-plan living areas.

The majority of Defra approved stoves have a 5kW flue outlet so they are legal in Smoke Control Areas, which include the majority of UK towns and cities. This will also help reduce your installation costs, as the stove will only require a 5" flue liner instead of the more expensive 6" liner.

Aesthetics

A multi-fuel stove does not have to be a utilitarian feature in your home; you can choose one that has style and appeal. There are many models that come in a variety of styles that can be a perfect match for your decor, no matter if it's traditional or modern. They usually have sleeker lines and cleaner designs than wood-burning stoves. This makes them a better choice for any space.

When selecting a multi-fuel stove make sure that it is suitable for the space and is compatible with your chimney or flue system. Make sure that the stove is in compliance with local requirements for clearance from combustible substances. Check the manufacturer's instructions to see how far away you have to keep combustibles such as furniture, curtains, and walls from your stove.

Another option to consider when shopping for an all-fuel stove is the airwash system which keeps the glass clean so that you can enjoy the flame. Some multi-fuel stoves come with a grate that is removable to make it easier to clean and change the fuel.

Multi-fuel stoves which are endorsed by Defra are designed to reduce pollution and emissions and are therefore a sensible option for eco-conscious homeowners. They're also extremely efficient and allow you to use less fuel which can lower your heating costs.

Meanwhile, cylindrical stoves like the Opus Harmony and the ACR Solis have an elegant, rounded design that can sit on a hearth without taking up the floor space.

Many stoves are constructed in a manner that reflects the tradition of their maker. They could feature cast iron construction, or intricate details. These stoves are perfect for country cottages and other homes that have traditional, rustic feel. Some models are more contemporary in style, featuring simple lines and materials such as steel and glass. These models are ideal for homes that have minimalist design like those found in urban areas as well as modern homes.

Energy Efficiency
