Choosing a Defra Approved Multi Fuel Stove

If you reside in a Smoke Control Area you must use a DEFRA (DEpartment of Environment Agriculture, Rural Affairs and Farming) approved wood burning or multi fuel stove. These are typically referred to as Defra Exempt Appliances and they will allow you to burn approved smokeless coal and logs, without producing smoke that is not considered to be nuisance.

Defra Approved

Anyone who lives in an area where smoke control is in place must use a DEFRA approved stove or log burner. Defra approved appliances have been tested to ensure that they do not emit any smoke. They also pass rigorous emission tests and satisfy government requirements for the Clean Air Act. Unlike standard wood burning stoves or multi fuel stoves, DEFRA approved appliances have been manufactured and designed to burn wood efficiently, ensuring that there is no smoke. This is achieved by making sure that the stove is equipped with enough combustion-free air flow throughout the day. We offer a wide range of wood burning stoves that are DEFRA approved in both traditional and modern styles.

If you plan to install a DEFRA-approved stove, it's a great investment, whether you reside in a smoke-free zone or not. A majority of the modern stoves we offer have an inbuilt feature that prevents you from closing the top air vent all the way, this keeps the fire from losing its effectiveness and causes it to smoulder and create more smoke.

DEFRA approved stoves are also more efficient in energy use. This means you can reduce your fuel bills and also keep your home warm for longer. They produce less carbon dioxide than older stoves and open fires.

Certain models are also Eco Design certified for 2022, a fantastic feature which helps you to reduce the amount of fuel, thus saving you more money. These stoves are designed to burn fuel more efficiently and use the entire source of combustibles. They also have primary, secondary, and tertiary controls.

We also have a selection of DEFRA multifuel stoves that permit you to burn any type of solid fuel including smokeless coal, peat or turf Briquettes. These stoves are ideal for those who wish to use a stove with various fuel options. They can also be employed in Smoke Control Areas.

Clean Burning Technology

A Multi Fuel Stove Defra Approved fuel stove is an excellent option for homeowners who want to utilize a wood-burning stove but don't have a large enough space to store logs. These stoves can be stocked with either wood or manufactured fuels like peat and coal Briquettes. These stoves are generally capable of combusting both of these fuel types more efficiently than traditional log burners. This is due to the fact that 10kw multi fuel stove-fuel stoves have been designed to burn a variety of fuels.

Stoves designed to burn a variety fuels usually have a raised grate that is designed to allow air to circulate beneath the fuel. This is because certain fuels, like peat and turf briquettes need lots of air beneath for them to be ignited and burn effectively. The majority of multi fuel stoves feature a secondary air flow which can be opened or closed according to the type of fuel you're using. This will help keep the fire burning by supplying additional air to the stove. It also increases the efficiency of combustion.

The primary and secondary airflow systems in the fireplace can be used to alter the height of the flame and also the temperature. This is important because different fuels burn at different rates, and generate different amounts of heat. Making sure you keep the flame's high and temperature within a certain range will ensure your stove is operating as efficiently as possible and generating the most amount of heat from its fuel.

In the end, you'll be required to remove ash frequently from your stove and place it in an ash bucket or ash pan. This will prevent too much of the ash from getting on the stove grate bars and also preventing your fuel from burning properly. To avoid discoloration, you will need to clean the stove glass regularly. You can keep your stove looking fresh by using a soft, damp scourer and a specific stove cleaner. It is also essential to follow the manufacturer's guidelines when cleaning and maintaining your stove to avoid damage or causing any issues.

Low Emissions

The best multi fuel stoves are made to be low emission which means they burn smokeless coal or a mixture of both, with minimal emissions. This is crucial in areas with strict smoke control such as London where you would require a Defra approved stove and only burn approved fuels that are part of the Ready To Burn scheme to meet local regulations and keep the air fresh.

A Defra-approved stove will typically have an automatic fuel feed and air supply control to ensure the fire burns efficiently. This produces minimal smoke, and produces a substantial amount of heat. It is a great choice for small rooms where the stove is the central feature.

If you reside in a smoke-control region it is crucial to choose a stove that is Defra-approved to ensure you're in compliance with regulations. This will help you avoid hefty fines if you burn in a way that is illegal. There are many Defra-approved stoves available, but we suggest you choose a wood-burning fireplace that is also Eco Design 2022-compliant. This will provide you with better views of the flame, and be more efficient.

The AGA Ellesmere EC4 is an excellent example of an Ecodesign and DEFRA approved stove that provides both design and efficiency. Its compact size makes it ideal for smaller rooms. It also has simple primary and secondary air controls. Its stylish looks would suit both modern and traditional settings.

Another alternative is the Stovax Blithfield which is a widescreen stove that has large square windows that gives excellent flame views. It comes in a variety of colors to fit your style. This stove is Defra and Eco Design compliant and can be supplied with either a clear arch or a Tracery version that adds dramatic Gothic arches to the door.

A great alternative to a traditional multi fuel stove is a pellet stove which makes use of biomass pellets or wood that has been compressed to create a highly efficient fire that has a high amount of heat output. The pellets, comprised of sawdust or other wood products that were rejected, are an environmentally friendly option. The stoves come with hotplates as well as an oven, so they can also be used for cooking. The standard 6" (150mm), but still compatible with a 5 1/2" (125mm) liner, is a common feature. This is a great alternative when it's hard to install a 6" (150mm), or if the chimney has a few odd bends.

Energy Efficiency

The combustion of fuel in a multifuel stove produces heat that the stove distributes to the room. This is accomplished either through radiation, in which the hot surface of a multifuel stove reflects heat back into the room, or convection, where it draws in cold air from outside, heats it up, and then directs it into the room. The majority of modern multifuel stoves are designed to maximise the efficiency of their heat output by using secondary and tertiary supplies to minimise emissions and burn fuel as efficiently as it can.

A good example is the Stovax Go Eco 5kW widescreen multifuel stove, which is Defra and Ecodesign approved. Its large square window provides an excellent view of the flame and its larger dimensions allow it to be fitted into larger chimney openings. It also has an airwash system that keeps the glass inside free of soot. The stove comes in a selection of six finishes. It could even be equipped with an upper plate so you can cook on it also.

Multifuel stoves can also be a very efficient way to make use of wood, however you will need to follow your appliance's guidelines for the best results, and make sure that it is regularly inspected by a professional. Choosing the right type of fuel is important too since different kinds of fuel will burn at different speeds and generate different quantities of energy. You must decide if you want your fire to produce lots of heat quickly, or if you are more interested in a long, slow burn and producing plenty of warm atmosphere in the room.

If you live in a smoke controlled area, it's important to know that only DEFRA approved stoves are permitted to burn authorised wood and smokeless coal. If you try to burn any other kind of fuel, it may cause a significant fine and will probably damage your stove too.

The Defra approved multifuel stoves we have in stock have 5" (125mm) flue outlets which can be fitted to an existing chimney stack or flue system. This is a more affordable option than installing a stainless steel twin wall liner, multi fuel stove Defra approved in particular if you do not need to go as far up the chimney.
