Defra Approved

DEFRA Approved stoves or log burners are vital for those who live in a Smoke Control Area in the UK. Defra approved stoves have been tested and proved to emit very little smoke, they also pass rigorous emissions tests and comply with the government’s Clean Air Act requirements. DEFRA approved appliances are constructed and designed in a way that they can efficiently burn wood, resulting in minimal smoke. This is achieved by making sure that the stove has enough combustion-free air flow at all times. We offer a broad selection of wood burning stoves that are DEFRA approved in both traditional and modern styles.

If you’re planning to install a DEFRA-approved kitchen is a good investment whether you reside in a smoke control zone or not. Many of the modern stoves we sell come with a built in feature that prevents you from closing the top air vent all the way, this prevents the fire from reducing its effectiveness and causing it to burn and create more smoke.

DEFRA approved stoves are also more energy efficient. This means you can save money on fuel and keeps your home warm for longer. They produce less pollution than older stoves or open fires.

Clean Burning Technology

A Multi fuel stove Defra approved fuel stove is a great alternative for homeowners who wish to have a wood burning stove but don’t have a large enough space for storing logs. These stoves can be filled with logs or manufactured fuels, such as peat and coal. These stoves can usually burn both kinds of fuels more effectively than traditional wood burners. This is because 7kw multi fuel stove-fuel stoves have been made to burn a variety of fuels.

The grate of a stove that is raised designed to burn different fuels is typically designed to allow air circulation underneath the fuel. This is due to the fact that certain fuels, like peat briquettes and turf briquettes, require a huge amount of air to ignite and burn. The majority of 2 kw multi fuel stove fuel stoves feature an additional air flow that can be closed or opened depending on the kind of fuel you’re using. This will help keep the fire burning by supplying an additional supply of air to the stove. It can also improve the efficiency of combustion.

The primary and secondary air flow systems inside the stove can be utilized to adjust the height of the flame and the temperature of the fire. This is important because different fuels burn at different rates, and generate different quantities of heat. Maintaining the flame’s high and temperature within a certain range will ensure your stove is operating as efficiently as it can and generating the highest amount of heat from its fuel.

It is also necessary to remove the ash from your stove regularly and place it in a bucket or pan. This will stop too much ash from accumulating on the grate bars and prevent your fuel from burning properly. To avoid discoloration, you must clean the glass of your stove regularly. You can keep your stove looking new by using a soft damp scourer and a specific stove cleaner. To avoid any problems or damage it is crucial to follow the instructions of the manufacturer when cleaning and maintaining your oven.

Low Emissions

The best multi fuel stoves are made to be low-emission which means they burn smokeless coal, or a combination of both with low emissions. This is especially important in areas that have smoke control such as London where you would need to choose a Defra approved stove and only burn authorised fuels as part of the Ready To Burn scheme to meet local regulations and keep the air fresh.

A stove that is Defra-approved will usually include an automatic fuel feed and air supply control to ensure that the fire burns efficiently. This means that there is less smoke and a very high heat output, which is beneficial in smaller rooms where the stove could be the focal area.

If you live in a smoke-free zone, it is important that you make use of an Defra approved stove to ensure that you are in compliance with the regulations and avoid paying huge fines for burning illegally. There are many approved stoves by Defra available, but we suggest you choose a wood-burning fireplace that is Eco Design 2022-compliant. This will allow you to have a a clearer view of the flame, and be more efficient.

The AGA Ellsmere EC4 is an excellent example of an approved DEFRA Ecodesign stove that offers both aesthetics and efficiency.

An alternative to a traditional multi fuel stove is a pellet stove that makes use of biomass pellets or compressed wood to create a highly efficient fire that has a high level of heat output. The pellets are made from leftover materials like sawdust and other wood products, which makes it a very environmentally friendly option. The stoves are supplied with a hotplate and an oven, which means they can be used for cooking as well. They typically have a bigger flue outlet than the standard 6″ (150mm) but they can still be used with 5″ (125mm) liner to ensure safety. This is a great choice when it’s hard to install a 6″ (150mm) or if the chimney stack has some unusual bends.

Energy Efficiency

The combustion of fuels in a multifuel fireplace creates heat that is transferred to the room. It does this by radiation, where the hot surface of the stove reflects heat into the room, or through convection, in which it draws cold air from outside, heats it up and then directs it back to the room. The majority of modern multifuel stoves are designed to maximize the efficiency of their heat output, using secondary and tertiary air sources to reduce emissions and burn fuel as efficiently as possible.

An excellent example is the Stovax Go Eco 5kW widescreen multifuel stove, which is both Defra and Ecodesign approved. Its large square window provides great views of the flame. Its larger dimensions allow it to be able to fit into larger chimney openings. It also has an airwash system which keeps the internal glass free of soot. The stove is available in a range of six finishes. It could even be fitted with a top plate, so that you can cook on it also.

Multifuel stoves are also a great way to burn wood. But, you must follow the instructions provided on your appliance to ensure most efficient results. You should also have it regularly inspected by an expert. Choosing the right type of fuel is also crucial because different types of fuel burn at varying rates and produce different amounts of energy. You’ll need to decide if you want the fire to produce a lot of heat quickly or for those who prefer a longer and slow burn that generates an atmosphere of warmth.
