When they are not maintained properly or make use of wood that is not of high quality the smoke produced contains fine particles, often referred to as particulate pollutants that can cause irritation to the lungs and other body organs. Carbon monoxide, toxic air pollutants like formaldehyde and benzene, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are also found in. Inhaling air pollution can cause lung irritation and lead to asthma attacks, wheezing, coughing and irritation of the lungs. It can also lead to heart disease, cancer or premature death.

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

The wood is local, which decreases the amount of pollution produced during the transport process. It is crucial to choose hardwoods that have been seasoned and of high quality. They will burn longer and more evenly than softwoods.

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

All wood burning stoves should be fully vented to the outside of your home to ensure that they don't cause a build-up of exhaust in your house. By keeping the flames in the vicinity of the logs and ensuring that you use dry, seasoned wood, all of our current clean burn and DEFRA exempt stoves can produce extremely clear exhaust and have particle levels of 60% or more below the DEFRA limit.

A wood burning stove equipped with an acatalytic converter or hybrid unit can provide the best low-carbon option for heating. These units ignite gasses and particles that were ignited during the initial burning in a second phase by mixing them with superheated air. The remaining gasses and particulates are transferred to a catalytic unit for a final and third combustion. This reduces emissions to levels well below the government standards.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel with the highest possible efficiency. This means that there are fewer emissions of particles into the air when burning wood. The stove's air management system regulates the intake and exhausting of gases, ensuring that the combustion process takes place in a controlled, sealed atmosphere. It also regulates the flame's height to minimise emissions and maximise the heat output.

This means your chimney and its surroundings will be cleaner than older stoves. Particulate matter, also referred to as particle pollution, resulting from incompletely burned wood can trigger respiratory problems, such as coughing and wheezing, and contribute to heart diseases as well as stroke, diabetes and other serious ailments. Wood burning is also a contributor to poor air quality in cities.

The smoke that is emitted from poorly combusted wood is a mixture of fine particulate pollution and hazardous air pollutants like carbon monoxide volatile organic compounds, nitrogen oxides, benzene formaldehyde, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These particles can reach deep into the organs of the lungs and cause discomfort, damage and even death. Dust particles from the air can also cause a hazard to surfaces in your home and give them a rough sensation.

It is important to select good quality, seasoned and dried firewood for your fireplace with a wood burner. The most effective woods for heating are hardwoods such as beech, ash, and oak. Hardwoods are dense and have a higher BTU than softwoods. They also provide more heat.

Fireplaces require some attention and maintenance. They should be placed away from materials that ignite and have a screen in place. The flow of air will be improved by keeping the grate clean of ash and other debris. This will keep the fire burning longer and your home clean. It is recommended that your chimney and stove swept at least once a year to prevent the build-up of creosote which could be a dangerous fire hazard and obstructions that could hinder circulation.
