Wood stoves, in contrast to traditional open fireplaces, are engineered to use wood for combustion. This allows them meet stricter emission standards.

Wood burning stoves emit glowing yellow flames that dance and warm crackling noises. They also provide a primal feeling of warmth. The smoke produced is contaminated by air pollutants such as benzene, formaldehyde, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.

The moisture content of wood is one of the main factors that determines how efficient a stove that burns wood is. This is why we recommend only using wood that is seasoned, that has been dried for a minimum of one year, and more often two years. The more dry the wood is and the more efficient it is to burn. This results in less smoke and less harmful emissions.

Another advantage of a wood burning stove is that it's an eco-friendly source of fuel, which is excellent for the environment. When you purchase locally-sourced wood, you also help to promote the active management and conservation of woodlands. This is beneficial for wildlife.

As far as maintenance is involved, the sole requirement of a wood burner is to scoop up and dispose of the ash. It can be a bit of a hassle however it is worth it to get the maximum heat from each log. Furthermore when you wait for a couple of days until the ashes completely cool they can be used as a non-toxic and eco-friendly ice melt. They can also be used to polish jewellery and absorb smells.

Wood burners that are clean and efficient are one of the best ways to save the cost of logs while keeping your home warm. As an added benefit they can also assist in the local woodland management. It's a excellent way to help the wildlife in your area.

Wood-burning fireplaces and stoves create very little pollutant if they are maintained properly and operated with dry, seasoned firewood. If they aren't maintained properly or make use of wood that is not of high quality the smoke produced is a result of fine particles, often referred to as particulate pollutants, which can irritate lung organs and other body organs. It also contains carbon monoxide and toxic air pollutants such as formaldehyde, benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Inhaling this kind of air pollution could cause lung irritation, coughing, wheezing and asthma attacks. It could even lead to serious health issues such as cancer, heart disease or premature death.

Some people fear that using a wood-burning stove will contribute to climate change however this isn't necessarily true. The combustion of wood produces energy that is carbon neutral. The tree absorbs carbon dioxide over its lifespan. After burning the carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere.

As the wood is sourced locally, it reduces the amount of pollution emitted in the process of transportation. It is important to use hardwoods that have been seasoned and of high quality. They burn longer and more evenly than softwoods.

Modern, EPA certified wood stoves and heaters (such as those made by Charlton & Jenrick) have much lower emissions than older stoves. They have been certified to meet 2020 EPA standards, which are considerably stricter than earlier emission limits.

To avoid a build up of exhaust inside your home, all wood-burning stoves must be vented completely to the outside. By keeping the flames in the vicinity of the logs and ensuring that you make use of dry, seasoned wood, all of our current clean burn and DEFRA exempt stoves are capable of producing very clear exhaust and have particle levels of 60 percent or less below the DEFRA limit.

A wood-burning stove with a catalytic converter can provide the ultimate low carbon solution for heating. These units re-ignite gases and particles that were ignited during the initial burning in a subsequent phase by mixing them with superheated air. The remaining gases and particulates are transferred to a catalytic unit to create a final and third combustion. This reduces emissions to levels far below government standards.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel with the highest possible efficiency. This results in the emission of very small particles into air when burning wood. The air management system of the stove controls the intake and ventilation of gases to ensure the combustion process is conducted in a safe and controlled environment. It also regulates the flame height to minimise emissions and maximise the heat output.

This means that your chimney and surrounding area will be cleaner than older stoves. Particulate matter (also called particle pollution) from incompletely combusted wood causes respiratory problems such as coughing and wheezing in people and can contribute to the development of heart disease as well as stroke, diabetes, and other serious health conditions. Air pollution from wood combustion is an element that contributes to poor urban air quality.

Smoke from poorly combusted timber is a source of fine particulate pollutants as well as dangerous air pollutants like carbon monoxide as well as other harmful air pollutants like nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds (VOCs) as well as benzene and formaldehyde. These particles can get into the organs of the lungs which can cause discomfort, damage and even death. Airborne dust can also harm the surfaces in your home and create an unpleasant sludge-like feel to rooms.

It's important to use only good quality, seasoned and dried firewood when you use your fireplace with a wood burner. Hardwoods such as oak beech, ash, and ash are the best for heating. Hardwoods are incredibly dense and have a higher BTU content than softwoods. They also have more heat.

You should also check whether your local authority has any rules regarding wood burning. These rules could include rules regarding odors or nuisances and visible emissions or smoke opacity limitations.

It is important to keep the glass of a wood stove that has a glass front free of dirt and deposits. This can be done using dry cloths or oven cleaner spray. You can also add bicarbonate soda and water to the glass.

Regular maintenance is essential for your stove and chimney. Regular chimney cleanings are necessary to get rid of creosote and ensure that the flue is operating correctly. You should also mark the dates of your periodic inspections on your calendar. This will help you to avoid costly repairs and prolong the life of your wood burner.

Low Maintenance

Wood burning fireplaces are popular due to their natural warmth. This kind of fireplace requires a bit of maintenance and upkeep. If it is not maintained and cleaned regularly the chimney, flue and stove could all be fire hazards within your home. These fireplaces also provide heat in the event of an electrical outage, particularly during winter storms when branches of trees may fall and power lines can be knocked down.

If you use a wood stove to heat your home, you can reduce your carbon footprint when compared to other fossil sources of fuel like gas. Modern wood stoves and inserts have been designed to meet EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) standards, which means they emit very little carbon dioxide. The more well-seasoned the wood is and the better it is, the more efficient it will be which means you'll burn less of it to get the same amount of heat.

The fireplaces require some maintenance and care. They should be kept away from the combustible materials and have a screen in place. Making sure the grate is free of debris and ash will aid in the flow of air, which will prevent the fire from dying out quickly. It will also help keep your indoors clean. You should have your stove and chimney cleaned at least once a year to prevent the build-up of creosote, which can be a dangerous fire hazard and a blockage that can hinder ventilation.

It can take a while for a new homeowner to learn to ignite, light and maintain a constant fire in the fireplace. But, once you've achieved the art of creating and maintaining a fire in your wood burner, it can be a source of enduring enjoyment that provides heat and warmth for your home all year long.

Wood-burning fireplaces have been around in a variety of forms for over 500 years and they've gained a new following because of their effectiveness and sustainability, as well as the natural warmth and aroma of real wood.
