Anyone who lives in an area where smoke control is in place must have a DEFRA approved stove or log burner. Defra approved stoves have been tested and confirmed to produce a minimal amount of smoke, they also pass rigorous emissions tests and comply with the government's Clean Air Act requirements. In contrast to standard wood burning or small multi fuel stoves for sale fuel stoves, DEFRA approved appliances have been developed and constructed to burn wood efficiently, ensuring that minimal smoke is produced.

Multi fuel stoves are an excellent option for homeowners who'd like to have a wood-burning stove but do not have room to store logs. These stoves are able to be filled with wood or manufactured fuels, such as coal and peat. These stoves can usually burn both kinds of fuel more efficiently than traditional wood burners. This is due to the design of a multi fuel stove has been optimized to to burn a range of different fuels.

Stoves built to burn a variety fuels generally feature an elevated grate designed to allow air to circulate underneath the fuel. This is because some fuels, like peat briquettes and turf Briquettes, require a significant amount of air to ignite and burn. The majority of multi-fuel stoves have an additional airflow that can be shut or opened depending on the type of fuel. This can help keep the fire burning by supplying a second supply of air into the stove, and will also improve combustion efficiency.

The primary and secondary air flow systems of the stove can be used to alter the flame height and the temperature of the fire. This is important as different types of fuel will burn at different rates and will produce different amounts of heat. By keeping the flame the right temperature and height you can ensure that your stove is operating as efficiently as possible while producing the maximum amount heat.

This is a great alternative when it's difficult to install a 6" (150mm) or if the chimney stack has some odd bends.

Energy Efficiency

The combustion of fuels in a multifuel fire source generates heat, which is later transferred to the room. This is done either by radiation, where the hot surface of a multifuel stove radiates heat back into the room, or convection, which draws in cold air from outside, warms it up and then directs it into the room. Modern multifuel stoves are designed for maximum efficiency, making use of secondary and third air supply in order to reduce emissions and efficiently burn fuel.
