Unlike traditional open fireplaces wood stoves are designed and optimised to burn firewood. This allows them meet stricter emission regulations.

Wood burning stoves emit glowing yellow flames that dance and warm crackling sounds. They also give a primal feeling of warmth. However the smoke they release contains carbon monoxide and toxic air pollutants, such as formaldehyde, benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

We recommend using only well-seasoned wood that has been dried over a period of at least one year, and in some cases, two years. The more dry the wood is more dry, the better it burns. This means lesser smoke and fewer harmful emissions.

A wood-burning stove also has the benefit of being an eco-friendly fuel source which is beneficial to the environment. Additionally, by purchasing locally sourced firewood you are aiding in the active management of woodlands which is a good thing for wildlife.

As far as maintenance is involved, the sole requirement for a wood stove is to regularly remove and scoop up the ash. It's somewhat of a hassle however it is worth it to get the best heat from every log. Furthermore, if you wait 2-3 days until the ashes completely cool and then reuse them as an eco-friendly and non-toxic ice melt. They can also be used to polish jewellery and remove odors.

When properly maintained wood-burning stoves and fireplaces emit little or no pollution when they are used with dry and seasoned wood. However, if they are not maintained properly or are made of poor quality wood the smoke that is produced by them contains fine particles (known as particulate pollution) that can cause irritation to the lung and other organs. It also contains carbon monoxide as well as toxic air pollutants such as formaldehyde, benzene, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Inhaling air pollution can cause irritation of the lung and lead to asthma attacks, wheezing, coughing and irritation of the lungs. It can also lead to cancer, heart disease or premature death.

Many are concerned that wood-burning stoves can cause climate change However, this isn't true. The combustion of wood produces energy that is carbon neutral. The tree absorbs carbon dioxide throughout its life. After burning the carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere.

As the wood is sourced locally, this reduces the amount of pollutants released during transportation. It is also essential to select high-quality, seasoned hardwoods as these will have a longer and more even burn than softwoods.

Modern, EPA certified wood stoves and heaters (such as those manufactured by Charlton & Jenrick) have much lower emissions than older stoves. They have been tested and certified to meet 2020 EPA standards which are considerably more stringent than previous emissions limits.

To prevent a build-up of exhaust in your home, all wood burning stoves must be vented completely to the outside. All of our current DEFRA-exempt, clean burn stoves can create very clear exhaust by keeping the flames above the wood logs and by using dry, seasoned firewood.

A wood-burning stove with an integrated unit or catalytic converter is the ultimate low carbon heating solution. These units ignite the gases and particulates that were ignited during the initial combustion in a subsequent stage by mixing them with superheated air. The remaining gases and particulates are then transferred to a catalytic unit for a final third combustion. This further reduces emissions to levels that are below the standards set by the government.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel with the highest efficiency. This results in minimal particles emitted into the atmosphere when burning wood. The stove's air management system controls the intake and exhausting of gases, ensuring the combustion process takes place in a closed, controlled environment. It also regulates the flame height to reduce emissions and maximize the heat output.

This means that your chimney and surrounding area will be a lot cleaner than older stoves. Particulate matter, also known as particle pollution, is a result of incompletely burned wood can trigger respiratory issues, such as wheezing and coughing, and contribute to heart diseases and stroke, diabetes and other serious conditions. Wood burning is also a contributor to poor air quality in cities.

The smoke that is emitted from poorly combusted wood contains fine particulate pollution and hazardous air pollutants such as carbon monoxide volatile organic compounds nitrogen oxides, benzene formaldehyde and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These particles can penetrate deep into the lung and other organs which can cause discomfort, damage and even death. Airborne dust can also harm the surfaces in your home, and can give a gritty feel to rooms.

Using a wood burner to heat your home can reduce your carbon footprint considerably in comparison to other fossil fuel sources like gas. Modern wood stoves and inserts are made to comply with EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) standards, which means they emit very little carbon dioxide. The more well-seasoned wood that you use the more efficient your stove will be. You'll require less wood to generate the same heat.

The fireplaces need some care and maintenance. They must be kept clear of materials that ignite and have a screen installed. Making sure the grate is free of ash and debris will allow airflow and will stop the fire from dying too quickly. Also, it will keep your indoors clean.
