Choosing a Defra Woodburner

To ensure compliance with the law, anyone living in a smoke-control zone must use a DEFRA-approved cooking stove. These are stoves that have been tested independently and proven to burn wood as well as authorised smokeless fuels in a way that is compliant with legislation.

From the outside, there is little difference between an DEFRA approved stove and an unapproved one. Many modern stoves can even be modified to become DEFRA approved with the help of the stove manufacturer.

Clean Burn Technology

A Defra approved stove will employ clean burning technology to minimise the amount of waste that is produced when fuel is burnt. This technology allows pre-heated, filtered air to be injected into the combustion chamber. The air is mixed with the gases released by the flame and is used to burn unburned hydrocarbons. This reduces the amount of smoke that escapes from a stove and also has a positive effect on asthma sufferers who suffer from respiratory issues.

A lot of modern wood stoves and burners use this technology, which is a major reason why they are more eco friendly than older stoves or fires. If you live in a smoke-free zone then to legally burn logs on a wood burning stove you will need a DEFRA exempt appliance that has passed the stringent smoke particle emissions tests to be considered a "clean burn".

If you have a luxury DEFRA stoves approved stove then to fully benefit from the technology to reduce emissions, it is best to use low moisture content wood. It is best to have the wood seasoned for at least two years in order to reduce its moisture content to less than 20 percent. You can check the moisture content of your wood with a moisture meter.

Using a DEFRA approved stove that has Clean Burn technology will reduce your energy costs and also help keep the environment cleaner. The patented clean burn system reduces the amount of smoke particles that are released and this can have a positive impact on those suffering from respiratory problems. It is essential to maintain your stove and flue to ensure that it is operating optimally and to avoid blockages.

Smoke Exempt Appliances

To be Defra Exempted, a stove must be able to pass a stringent test developed by the UK Government's Department for Environment, Farming and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) to ensure it can be used in smoke controlled areas. A stove that is DEFRA recommended stoves exempt is commonly referred to as a DEFRA or SE stove that has passed the tests that allow you to burn wood and authorised manufactured non-smoking fuels in UK Smoke Control Areas.

If you reside in a UK city or large town that is classified as a Smoke Control Area it is essential to have a Defra Exempt Woodburner in order to avoid violating the law and possibly receiving a hefty fine. This is because you are only able to legally burn wood with a Smoke Control Approved Appliance and only certain approved fuels (see our Defra List of Authorised Fuels for a complete list).

A Defra Exempt Stove will mean that your chimney and flue system will stay more clean for longer because the stove won't be emitting nuisance levels of smoke into the atmosphere as well. Even if you do not live in an area designated as a Smoke Control Area, a Defra stove is still a good choice because it's more eco-friendly and friendly to neighbours because it produces less smoke than a non-Defra-approved stove.
