Defra Approved

Anyone who lives in an area where smoke control is enforced must use a DEFRA approved stove or log burner. Defra approved stoves have been tested and confirmed to produce a minimal amount of smoke. They also have passed strict emissions tests and meet the government's Clean Air Act requirements. In contrast to standard wood burning stoves or multi fuel stoves, DEFRA approved appliances have been developed and constructed to burn wood in a way that minimal smoke is produced. This is accomplished by ensuring that the stove has enough combustible flow. Here at Bowland Stoves we offer a range of modern and traditional DEFRA approved wood-burning stoves in different styles.

Clean Burning Technology

Multi fuel stoves are a great choice for homeowners who would like to use a wood-burning stove, but do not have the space for storage of logs. These stoves can be filled with wood or manufactured fuels such as coal and peat. These stoves are usually able to combust both of these fuel types more efficiently than traditional log burners. This is largely due to the design of a multi fuel stove has been optimized to be able to burn a wide range of different fuels.

The raised grate on stoves that are designed to burn various fuels is usually designed to allow air circulation underneath the fuel. This is because some fuels, like peat briquettes or turf briquettes, require a huge amount of air to ignite and burn. Most multi-fuel stoves have an additional airflow which can be opened or shut according to the type of fuel. This will help keep the fire burning by supplying an additional supply of air into the stove. It can also improve the efficiency of combustion.

The primary and 349338 secondary air flow systems inside a stove can be used to adjust the flame's height and temperature of the fire. This is important because different fuels burn at different rates and generate different amounts of heat. By keeping the flame's the right temperature and height you can ensure that your stove runs at its most efficient level while producing the highest amount of heat.

It is also necessary to remove the ash regularly from your stove and place it in a bucket or pan. This will prevent the accumulation of too much ash on the stove's grates and will hinder your fuel from burning properly. To avoid discoloration, will need to clean the glass of your stove regularly.

Typically, a Defra approved stove will feature automatic fuel feed and an air supply control to ensure the fire burns at its maximum efficiency. This means that there is no smoke, and a high level of heat. It is a good choice for small rooms in which the stove could be the focal point.

If you live in a smoke control area it is important that you use an Defra approved stove to ensure you are in compliance with the regulations and avoid paying hefty penalties for burning illegally. There are a myriad of Defra approved stoves available on the market but we recommend that you choose one that is also Eco Design 2022 compliant as it will provide you with an improved view of the flame and also be more energy efficient, too.

The AGA Ellsmere EC4 is an excellent example of an approved DEFRA Ecodesign stove that offers aesthetics and efficiency. Its compact size makes it ideal for smaller rooms.

A good alternative to a conventional multi fuel stove is a pellet stove that makes use of compressed wood or 349338 biomass pellets to provide a very efficient fire with a high level of heat output. The pellets, 349338 comprised of sawdust or other wood products that were rejected, are an eco friendly alternative. The stoves come with an oven and hotplate, as well as an oven, so they can also be used for cooking. They usually have a larger flue outlet than the standard 6" (150mm) however they can still be used with a 5" (125mm) liner to ensure safety. This is a great option when it's hard to install a 6" (150mm), or if the chimney stack has a few odd bends.

Energy Efficiency

The combustion of fuel in a multifuel stove creates heat that the stove then distributes to the room. This is accomplished either through radiation, in which the hot surface of a multifuel stove reflects heat back into the room or convection, where it draws in cold air from outside, heats it up and then directs it into the room. Modern multifuel stoves are designed for the highest efficiency, and use secondary and third air supply to reduce emissions and burn fuel efficiently.

Stovax Go Eco 5-kW widescreen multifuel stove is a great example. It is endorsed by both Defra as well as Ecodesign. The large square window provides stunning views of the flame, and the fact that it's larger than the norm means that it can be inserted into a larger chimney opening. It also features an airwash system that keeps the internal glass free of soot. The stove has a choice of six finishes. It can even be equipped with a top plate, so that you can cook on it also.

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 produces warm air.
