Defra Approved Multifuel Stoves

Defra approved multifuel stoves are a great option for those living in smoke controlled areas. They are very safe and can burn wood or authorized smokeless fuels.

The Defra logo is usually present on the appliance or written in the specification to indicate that it can be used in Smoke Control Areas. These appliances also have a high energy efficiency rating with low emissions.

Clean Burn Technology

A majority of the wood-burning stoves we offer are Defra approved, which means that they meet stricter standards for emissions when they are 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 tested by an independent lab to ensure they don't create excessive smoke. A Defra-approved stove will also have features like secondary and tertiary combustion, which maximize the amount of energy used and reduce harmful gasses.

The stoves that are Defra approved typically include an 'SE' symbol (which is distinctive for smoke exempt) or the word SE after their name. This means that the stove was independently tested and is able to be used in a Smoke Control Area with logs or other approved solid fuels. The testing process will include a series of tests to assess the stove's performance over a range of conditions and to verify that the stove produces five grams of particulates per kilogram when burning wood.

To meet this standard Defra approved stoves come with an altered top air control that prevents the user from closing it all the way. The air vent at the top that is closed too far will restrict the supply of oxygen to the fire, which can cause it to smolder instead of burning. If you did this with the use of a non Defra approved stove you would be breaking the law and could be charged with nuisance smoking offences.

The best way to avoid the stench of smoke that comes from a wood stove is to purchase kiln-dried or seasoned wood.

You could be prosecuted or fined for burning unapproved fuels in the Smoke Control Area or use an appliance that was not designed to use smokeless fuels.

Defra approved stoves come with secondary and tertiary burning systems, which burn fuel at lower temperatures. This means less particulate (PM2.5). This is achieved through the use of stainless steel liners and an exclusive convection system that forces air down the chimney - even when the fire has been put out. This allows stoves to burn wood more efficiently and generate less emissions.

A Defra Approved Stove also features an adjustment to the top vent, which prevents it from closing completely. If you cut off the air supply, a stove will stop burning properly, and smoulder a lot, and then start producing smoke. DEFRA Stoves Advantages approved appliances permit you to close the vent but not completely so that the flame can be burned at a lower temperature and still be in compliance with UK regulations.
