This permits you to burn smokeless fuels legally in a smoke-free zone. These stoves are often HETAS-approved and come with ClearSkies ratings that means they are in compliance with the strictest regulations for emissions. The stoves are designed with Clean Burn Technology to ensure that the wood is never removed from oxygen, which would cause it to smoulder or emit black smoke. This allows the stoves to maintain a low level of combustion up until the entire fuel is consumed. A defra-exempt stove is likely to include a secondary airflow system which ensures that the solid fuel and briquettes are burnt in a controlled manner which reduces harmful gases and particles. You'll be able to purchase an array of various styles of defra approved multi fuel stoves. There are many traditional and contemporary styles available. These stoves are ideal for installation in existing fireplaces. These models are manufactured by the top brands such as Arada, Stovax and Burley, and feature the latest technology for clean burning stoves.

To be compliant with building codes, a defra-exempt stove is required to be installed by a licensed installer. This installer can verify that the appliance complies with latest regulations and is suitable for use on a regular basis. We have a team HETAS approved installers at Choice Stoves who can install your new stove correctly and safely, assuring you comply with government smoke emission regulations. Low Emission Vehicles The UK government's Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs manages regulations and policies regarding the natural environment as well as food, agriculture and much more. One of the main areas that they oversee is smoke control, which restricts the emission of dark smoke from chimneys in urban areas (apart from certain exceptions). If you reside in a large or city town – also known as a smoke controlled area – you will require an DEFRA approved stove to burn wood and other solid fuels legally and be sure to not disturb your neighbors with nuisance smoke. DEFRA stoves are designed to pass strict emissions tests and reduce their output and are therefore more environmentally green than the older models. DEFRA multifuels stoves are more efficient and meet environmental standards better than open fires or wood burners. This means that you will heat your room faster with less wood and release fewer harmful gases into the air, thereby reducing the carbon footprint. Check for the DEFRA-approved logo when shopping for a multifuel or wood burning stove. This will appear in the stove's title or specification and will often be followed by a 'SE', which means Smoke Exempt. If you notice this, then you can be sure that the stove been able to pass the stringent DEFRA tests and is suitable for use in a smoke control area in the event of burning approved fuels. Many people believe that a multi-fuel stove approved by DEFRA can only be used with smokeless fuels such as firelogs or briquettes. This isn't the case at all. In reality, as long as you burn authorised fuels in your DEFRA stove and follow the manufacturer's guidelines for safe operation, then you can burn most solid fuels in the DEFRA approved stove, which includes wood that has been seasoned. To get the most value results from your DEFRA multifuel stove, you be required to only use dry, seasoned wood with a moisture content below 20%. Using wet wood will create excessive smoke and could void your warranty. Similarly, mineral fuels should have a sulphur content below 2 percent to avoid thick ash deposits. Versatility There are a variety of styles available to pick from. These are available in traditional designs that will fit into an existing fireplace or inglenook, to contemporary stoves which are perfect for homes that do not have an already installed surround. Multi fuel stoves that are Defra approved are equipped with a multi fuel grate, allowing you to burn smokeless coal and logs. This provides you with more heating options. If you are planning to make use of your stove as a slumber-burner (overnight), a Defra-approved wood burner is not suitable as it requires a continuous air supply. Convenience If you reside in a smoke control area, then a Defra Approved multi fuel stove is essential. DEFRA list stoves permit you to burn smokeless or wood and are designed to let this happen without releasing any harmful pollutants into the air. A stove that is approved by Defra will allow you to comply with local laws and avoid costly penalties. Defra-approved stoves use the most advanced combustion technology to burn wood and other solid fuels in a safe way. This is achieved by delivering the right amount of air into the firebox, which prevents fuel from being starved for oxygen. This stops part-burned combustibles like soot and ash from traveling up the chimney and then into the room. This can reduce the chances of a blocked fireplace and is also beneficial for the environment.
