The more dry the wood, the more efficiently it burns, which results in less smoke and less harmful emissions.
Another great benefit of a wood-burning stove is that it's an eco-friendly source of fuel, which is excellent for the environment. Additionally, by purchasing locally sourced firewood you are helping to support the active management of forests which is a wonderful thing for wildlife.

When properly maintained wood-burning stoves and fireplaces emit very little pollutant when they are used with dry and seasoned firewood. If they are not properly maintained or when they make use of wood that is not of high quality the smoke produced is a result of fine particles, commonly referred to as particulate pollution, which can irritate lung organs and other body organs. It also contains carbon monoxide and toxic air pollutants like formaldehyde, benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Inhaling these types of air pollution could cause irritation of the lungs as well as wheezing, coughing, and asthma attacks. It can even cause serious health conditions such as heart disease, cancer, or premature death.
Some people are worried that wood-burning stoves can contribute to climate change however this isn't true. Burning wood produces energy that is carbon-neutral. The wood absorbs carbon dioxide throughout its life. When it is burned the carbon dioxide is released into the air.
Because the wood is harvested locally, this reduces the amount of pollutants released during transportation. It is essential to select hardwoods that are well-seasoned and of top quality. They will 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 tested and certified to meet 2020 EPA standards which are considerably more stringent than previous emissions limits.
All wood burning stoves should be fully vented to the outside of your property to ensure that they do not cause a build-up of exhaust inside your home. By keeping flames above the logs and making sure you use dry, seasoned wood, all of our current clean burn and DEFRA exempt stoves can produce very clear exhaust. They also have particle levels of 60 percent or less below the DEFRA limit.
A wood-burning stove with a catalytic converter is the ultimate low carbon solution for heating. These units re-ignite gasses and particles that were ignited during the initial burning in a second phase by mixing them superheated air. The remaining gasses and particulates are transferred to a catalytic unit for a final third combustion. This further reduces emissions to levels far below the standards set by the government.
Clean Burn
Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel with the highest possible efficiency. This results in a minimum amount of emissions of particles into the air when burning wood. The air management system of the stove controls the intake and exhaust of gases to ensure that the combustion process occurs in a safe and controlled environment. It also regulates the flame's height to minimise emissions and maximise heat output.
This means your chimney and www.0773781.Xyz surrounding area will be cleaner than older stoves. Particulate matter, also referred to as particle pollution, from incompletely burned wood can trigger respiratory problems, such as coughing and wheezing, and contribute to heart diseases and stroke, diabetes and other serious illnesses. Air pollution from wood combustion is a contributory factor in poor air quality in urban areas.
The smoke that is emitted from poorly combusted wood contains fine particulate matter and dangerous air pollutants, including carbon monoxide, volatile organic compounds, 0773781.Xyz nitrogen oxides, benzene, formaldehyde and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. These particles can penetrate deep into the lungs, and other organs causing discomfort, injury, and even death. Dust particles from the air can also cause a hazard to surfaces within your home and 0773781.xyz (www.0773781.xyz) give them a rough feeling.

These fireplaces are also an excellent source of warmth when power is out, particularly in winter when snow storms can cause branches to fall from trees and rip up power lines.
Using a wood burner for heating will reduce your carbon footprint considerably when compared to other fossil fuel sources like gas. Modern wood stoves and inserts have been designed to meet EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) standards, which means that they produce very low emissions. 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 produce the same amount of heat.
They require some maintenance and care, including ensuring they are positioned away from the ignition source and that a screen is installed. The air flow can be improved by keeping the grate clean of ash and debris. This will help keep the fire burning longer and your home in good order. It is recommended that your chimney and stove swept every year at least two times to avoid creosote accumulation, which can be a fire hazard and a blockage that can hinder circulation.
