What is a Stove Defra?

Stove refers to a multi-fuel stove or wood-burning stove that has been approved for use in areas that have smoke control. This is a requirement for certain UK cities and towns.

These DEFRA stoves were designed and manufactured to meet specific legislation to be used in these kinds of zones. They usually have air vents that are not completely closed, which helps stop the stove from becoming lacking oxygen during the combustion process. This in turn reduces the amount of particulate matter released into atmosphere. They also have advanced combustion systems like secondary and tertiary combustion that help to reduce emissions even further.
