10 Tell-Tale Symptoms You Need To Look For A New Defra Approved Multifuel Stoves
Defra Approved Multifuel Stoves

Defra approved multifuel stoves are an excellent choice for those who live in smoke controlled areas. They are extremely safe and can burn wood or other approved smokeless fuels.

The Defra Logo is usually found on the appliance, or written in its specification to show that it can be used for Smoke Control Areas. They also come with high energy ratings and low emissions.

Clean Burn Technology

Many of the wood burning stoves that we sell are Defra approved, which means they have been tested to meet stricter standards for emissions when used with wood and other approved fuels. This is due to the fact that these stoves are built to work with a variety of different fuels and have been independently tested to ensure they don't produce excessive smoke. Additionally, a Defra approved stove has features such as secondary and tertiary combustion that can help maximize the amount of energy produced by the burn and minimise harmful emissions.

The Defra approved stoves often have an 'SE' logo (which is distinctive for smoke exempt) or SE after their name. This means that the stove was independently tested and can be employed in a Smoke-Control Area with logs or other approved solid fuels. The testing process includes several tests to assess the stove's performance in different conditions, and to ensure that the stove produces a minimum of 5 grams of particulates per kilogram when burning wood.

To achieve this standard, Defra approved stoves come with an altered top air control that prevents users from closing it completely. The air vent at the top that is closed too much will reduce the flow of oxygen into the fire, which can cause it to smolder instead of burning. If you did this on the use of a non Defra approved stove you could be in violation of the law and could be prosecuted for violations of nuisance smoking.


To avoid the smell of smoke, purchase wood that has been seasoned or kiln dried. It is wood that has been dried for many years which reduces the amount of moisture to less than 20%. You can check the moisture content of your wood using a simple wood moisture meter.

You can reduce the amount nuisance smoke generated from a stove that is Defra approved by making use of dry, well-seasoned and well-seasoned logs that have been dried and kiln-fired or spruce. You should never burn wet, damp or unseasoned wood. This can create lots of smoke and you could be fined by the local authority.

Smoke Control Area Approval

DEFRA approved stoves are made to meet strict air quality standards which are set by the government. They can be powered by a variety of fuels including wood and approved smokeless materials in Smoke Control Areas.

Burning untreated wood and some other wet fuels without having a DEFRA exempt or approved stove will cause smoke that can irritate neighbors. This can also cause issues with the local air quality particularly if you reside in an urban area. You could be fined or prosecuted for burning unapproved fuels in the Smoke Control Area or use an appliance that is not designed to use smokeless fuels.

Defra approved stoves come with secondary and tertiary burners, which burn fuel at lower temperature. This results in less particulate (PM2.5). 5kw multi fuel stoves defra approved is done through stainless steel liners, and a convection system which forces air down the chimney after the fire is removed. This allows stoves to burn wood more efficiently and generate less carbon dioxide.

A Defra Approved Stove also features an adjustment for the top vent to prevent it from closing all the way. When you cut the air supply, the stove will stop burning properly, it will smoulder and then start producing smoke. Defra approved appliances permit you to close the vent, but not completely, so that the fire can burn at a lower heat and still be in compliance with UK regulations.

When choosing a new Defra approved stove it is important to consider the design and style of the stove, and whether it will match the interior decor of your home. There are a variety of sizes and styles to choose from that range from traditional fireplaces to inglenooks, to more modern designs that look stunning in open-plan living spaces.

Many stoves are designed to reflect the history of the manufacturer. They could have cast iron construction or ornate details. These models can be perfect for country cottages and homes that have traditional, rustic feel. Some models are contemporary with clean lines and materials such as steel and glass.
