This means less smoke and less harmful emissions.

Another advantage of a wood-burning stove is that it's a low carbon source of fuel, which is great for the environment. By purchasing locally sourced wood, you can also help to promote the active management and conservation of woodlands. This is beneficial for wildlife.

In terms of maintenance concerned, the only requirement for a wood burner is to regularly remove and scoop up the ash.

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

Some people fear that using a wood fireplaces burning stove could contribute to climate change, but this is not necessarily the case. Wood burning produces energy that is carbon neutral. Through the life of a tree it absorbs carbon dioxide and when it is burnt, the absorbed carbon is released back into the atmosphere.

Because the wood is harvested locally, it reduces the amount of pollution emitted in the process of transportation. It is also important to select top quality woods that are seasoned and seasoned as they will have a longer and more even burn than softwoods.

Modern wood stoves, including the ones made by Charlton & Jenrick, emit significantly less pollutant than older stoves. They have been tested and certified to meet the 2020 EPA standards, which are significantly more stringent than previous emissions limits.

All wood burning stoves must be fully vented to the outside of your property to ensure they do not create a haze of exhaust in your house. By keeping the flames in the vicinity of the logs and ensuring that you use dry, seasoned and dry wood, all of our current clean burn and DEFRA exempt stoves produce very clear exhaust. They also have particle levels of 60% or more below the DEFRA limit.

A wood-burning stove with a catalytic converter can provide the best low carbon heating option. These units re-ignite the gases and particulates that were ignited during the initial combustion in a second stage by mixing them with superheated air. They then funnel the remaining particulates and gasses through a catalytic combustor to create the third and final combustion, further decreasing emissions to levels well below government standards.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves are made to burn fuel with the greatest efficiency that is possible. This results in the release of a small amount of particles into the air when burning wood. The air management system of the stove controls the intake and venting of gases to ensure the combustion process occurs in a sealed and controlled environment. It also regulates the flame height to minimise emissions and maximise the heat output.

This means that your chimney and the surrounding area will be much cleaner than older stoves. Particulate matter (also called particle pollution) from wood that is not fully combusted can cause respiratory problems like wheezing and coughing in people and can contribute to the development of heart disease such as stroke, diabetes, and other serious health conditions. Wood burning is also a contributor to poor air quality in cities.

The smoke from poorly combusted wood contains fine particulate pollution as well as hazardous air pollutants such as carbon monoxide volatile organic compounds nitrogen oxides, benzene, formaldehyde and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These particles can reach deep into the lungs and other organs and cause discomfort, damage and even death. Airborne dust can also damage surfaces in your home, giving them a gritty feeling.

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

Check with your local authority to find out if they have any rules concerning wood burning. They could include rules for nuisance or odor and visible emissions or smoke opacity limits.

It is important to keep the glass of a stove with an open front that is free of deposits and dirt. You can use a dry towel or oven cleaner spray to accomplish this. Alternately, you can add bicarbonate of soda mixed with a bit of water to the glass.

Regular maintenance is also important for your stove and chimney. This includes regular chimney cleanings to remove creosote as well as ensure proper operation of the flue. You should also mark the dates of your periodic inspections on your calendar. This will allow you to avoid costly repairs and prolong the life of your wood stove.

Fireplaces can also provide heat in the event of power outage, especially during winter storms, when branches of trees may fall and power lines may be ripped down.

Utilizing a wood burner for heating will reduce your carbon footprint substantially in comparison to other fossil fuel sources such as gas. Modern wood stoves and inserts are made to conform to EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) standards, which means they emit very little carbon dioxide. The more well-seasoned wood is the more efficient it will be which means you'll burn less to generate the same amount of heat.

They require some maintenance and attention, such as ensuring they are not in close proximity to burning materials and a screening is in place. The air flow can be improved by keeping the grate clear of ash and other debris. This will keep the fire burning longer and your home tidy. You should have your stove and chimney swept at least twice per year to prevent the accumulation of creosote which could cause a fire hazard or clog and hinder circulation.
