Choosing a Defra Approved Or Smoke Exempt Stove

If you live in an area that is a Smoke Controlled zone, then selecting a DEFRA Approved or Smoke Exempt stove is crucial. DEFRA stoves ratings and reviews are not only compliant with the building regulations, but they also permit burning wood or multi-fuels within your home.

Stove manufacturers are constantly making improvements to their products using secondary and tertiary systems of combustion that reduce emissions as well as the user's carbon footprint.


Defra Approved

If you are in a smoke control area then you must make use of a defra-approved stove. The UK Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) has adopted laws that prohibit the emission of dark smoke in areas controlled by smoke, which includes most large towns and cities. Defra Approved Stoves have been thoroughly tested and inspected to ensure they are in compliance with the laws. They are designed to efficiently burn fuel and produce significantly less pollutants. This makes them a better choice for your neighbors and you as well, since the less smoke they produce means that nuisance levels of smoke will be reduced to the minimum. Stoves that are approved by the Defra will display the logo as well as the words SE (smoke-exempt) and defra exemption in their title and specifications.

Most of the wood-burning and multi fuel stoves we offer are Defra approved. This is because we endeavor to source top quality products and we want our customers to be capable of getting the most out of their stove. Defra-approved stoves are more efficient than non-approved models and produce less particulate matter. This decreases the amount of dark smoke that is generated. Defra approved stoves also have the most robust firebox which is another way in which they can help reduce smoke emissions.

Defra approved appliances will not only decrease the amount of smoke that is produced, but also ensure that the air that is used for combustion remains constant throughout the entire combustion process. This will prevent the stove from becoming starved of air and causing it to smoulder or emit dark smoke. Most stove manufacturers now build Defra Approved models into their product lines as they become increasingly popular.

Defra approved stoves aren't only a great choice for those who live in areas with smoke control They are also a great choice for anyone who wishes to improve the safety and efficiency of their fireplace, and also reduce the amount of toxins released into the atmosphere. They're an excellent choice for those who are considering having their chimneys lined with a stainless steel twin wall liner that is flexible. Most approved models by Defra come with a 5" outlet, which permits them to be used combination with a 125mm lining, instead of the standard 6" liner. This will save you money on the liner as well as the installation.

Some people prefer to sleep on the stove for a night by closing the top vent and letting it burn slowly. This can result in a buildup of soot and other tars that can block your chimney. A Defra approved stove will not allow you to shut the top vent down completely, as this could cause the fire to cease. It will also be more likely to send any combustibles not yet burned into the air, which is better for the environment and will be significantly less likely to block your chimney.

Defra Exempt

These appliances typically be able to achieve this status through strict testing and examination to ensure they have ultra low levels of emissions. This is achieved by using secondary combustion, where the waste products generated by the combustion process are re-burnt to reduce the amount of pollutants released into the air. This makes DEFRA Approved stoves the ideal choice for those who live in a zone that is smoke-free and want to be sure that they have a stove that is safe to use.

Defra exempt stoves are usually marked with a SE logo or are branded DEFRA Stove. This means that the stove has passed a test developed by the UK government's Department of Environment, Farming and Rural Affairs (Defra) to show that it emits only a small amount of smoke when it is used in a proper manner. This is why Defra stoves are the only wood-burning stove that is legal to install in Smoke Controlled areas.

A Defra-approved wood burning stove will keep your chimney and flue clean because they are engineered for a cleaner burn of wood than other types. This is because of an advanced combustion system that doesn't restrict airflow into the firebox, and allows for the process of slumbering. which prevents combustibles that have been partially burned from escaping up your chimney.
