They are independently tested to ensure the lowest emissions possible. Stoves that have this status are often branded with the 'Defra-approved logo on their specifications or name.

Approved for Smoke Controlled Areas

Many people believe that living in a smoke-free area means they can't use a fireplace with wood. This isn't the case. In reality, a majority of cities and large towns are within a smoke-free zone, but that doesn't mean you cannot use a stove, it just means you need to make use of an exempt device and only use authorised fuels (usually Briquettes) in your stove. The Defra approved stove is a specific type of wood burning stove that has been inspected to ensure it meets certain criteria in regards to the emissions that it produces when burning authorised fuels, and therefore, it can be used legally in smoke control Area.

The Defra Logo is widely used in the industry, and a lot of stoves feature the SE after their names to indicate that they are smoke-free. To be SE approved the stove must satisfy strict emission requirements. This means that you can be confident you are purchasing the top wood stove that is available.

If you are looking for a stove that burns wood that is Defra exempt or has SE after its name, you will often discover that the manufacturer has done things like ensuring that there are enough air intakes on the front of the stove to permit full combustion of the fuel and that the chimney outlet size is adequate to prevent soot build-up. This is crucial because it ensures that smoke from the wood stove doesn't escape through the chimney and into your home.

Another benefit of a Defra approved stove is that it generally permits you to use it with a 5" chimney liner, which complies with UK building regulations. However, stoves that aren't Defra-approved will have to be fitted with a larger 6" liner.

The distinction between a stove that is DEFRA approved and one that is not approved is usually very small. Modern stoves can be made DEFRA certified by an approved kit supplied by the manufacturer and fitted within a matter of minutes. This is because a Defra approved stove has to undergo very rigorous tests and must be restricted to the amount of smoke it can produce.

To ensure that these restrictions remain in place during the testing process, the stove will have to be able to limit the combustion air supply to ensure that it does not starve itself of oxygen, which may cause it to smoulder. This is accomplished through a mechanism within the stove that opens a small amount of air into the firebox during combustion which is often hidden inside the stove and beneath the base of the fire box.

Stove World UK offers a wide range of DEFRA approved stoves from some of the top manufacturers in the country, including Stovax, Arada and Burley.

A DEFRA approved stove, also referred to as a smoke-free wood stove is an appliance that can be used to burn wood in the Smoke Control Area. The stove will have the Defra approved symbol or the word 'SE' in the front of its name meaning it is only permitted to be used in smoke-controlled areas when you burn approved fuels.

The older wood stoves can release large amounts of particulate matter into the atmosphere that can trigger or contribute to respiratory problems, asthma attacks, heart problems and premature death. This is why it is crucial to purchase new wood stoves that meets the strict emission standards established by the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). Look for the "EPA 2020 Certified Label" which indicates that the stove is in compliance with the emission limits currently in place.

If you purchase a stove that isn't EPA-certified and you live in a smoking area you'll have to get it recertified before you can use the stove. It's time-consuming and expensive, but the law requires it. Homeowners who sell a home with a wood stove that is not certified may be liable for tax credits or fines that relate to pollution-free air.

The majority of modern stoves can be altered to become Defra approved with an adjustment kit or kit that the installer provides. The primary difference between DEFRA approved stoves and those that aren't is the combustion air control system, which controls the amount of air that passes through the stove when it is operating normally. Modifications are usually done to the base or side of the firebox that is underneath the stove.

Certain manufacturers will make two versions of their wood stoves, one that is Defra approved and the other that is not. This is due to the process of placing a stove through rigorous Defra tests is expensive in order to recover some of this expense they'll offer the non-approved version at a lower cost. The DEFRA approved version will have been able to have the modification to the combustion air included in the testing process.

Approved for Gas

Prior to the Clean Air Acts, residential homes were able to burn any fuel they wanted, leading to large amounts of smoke emissions. This led to health issues. To combat this, Defra established Smoke Control Areas. This means that residential homes can not emit any smoke unless their wood burners and multifuel stoves were Defra-approved for burning only authorised substances like manufactured smokeless coke and anthracite.

Defra approved stoves, also referred to as SE (Smoke Exempt) Stoves, have undergone rigorous testing to demonstrate that they are able to burn cleanly authorised fuels within a Smoke Control Area. The latest technology for combustion delivers an unabated minimum of secondary air into the firebox. This allows the stove to meet Defra standards for Smoke Control Areas even when it is used with authorised fuels like anthracite and manufactured smokeless coals.
