If properly maintained, wood-burning fireplaces and stoves emit very little pollutant when they are operated with seasoned and dry firewood. When they are not properly maintained or use wood of poor quality, the smoke that is produced is a result of fine particles, also known as particulate pollutants that can cause irritation to the lungs and other organs of the body. It also contains carbon monoxide as well as toxic air pollutants such as formaldehyde, benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Inhaling these types of air pollution can cause lung irritation as well as wheezing, coughing, and asthma attacks. It could even cause serious health conditions such as cancer, heart disease or premature death.

Some people fear that using a wood burning stove can cause climate change, but this is not necessarily the case. Wood burning is a carbon neutral energy source. The tree absorbs carbon dioxide over its lifetime. After burning the carbon dioxide is released into the air.

The wood is sourced locally, which reduces the amount of pollution released during transportation. It is also important to select high-quality woods that are seasoned and seasoned as they will give an extended and even burning time than softwoods.

Modern wood stoves, including the ones manufactured by Charlton & Jenrick, emit significantly less pollutant than older stoves. They have been tested and certified to meet the 2020 EPA standards which are much more stringent than previous emissions limits.

All wood-burning stoves must be fully vented to the outside of your home to ensure they do not create a build-up of exhaust inside your home. All of our current DEFRA-exempt, clean-burn stoves produce very clear exhaust by keeping the flames at a distance from the wood logs and using dry and seasoned firewood.

A wood burning stove equipped with a catalytic converter or hybrid unit can offer the ultimate low-carbon heating solution. These units ignite the gases and particulates that were ignited during the initial combustion at a later stage by mixing them with superheated air. The remaining gasses and particulates are transferred to a catalytic unit to create a final and third combustion. This reduces emissions to levels far below the standards set by the government.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves are designed to burn fuel with the best efficiency possible. This means that there are fewer emissions of particles into the air when burning wood. The stove's air management system regulates the intake and venting of gases, making sure that the combustion process is conducted in a closed, controlled environment. It also regulates the flame's height to minimize emissions and increase heat output.

This means your chimney and the surrounding area will be much cleaner than older stoves. Particulate matter (also known as particle pollution) caused by incomplete combustion of wood causes respiratory problems such as wheezing and coughing in people and can lead to the development of heart diseases as well as stroke, diabetes, and other serious health conditions. Wood burning also contributes to poor air quality in cities.

Smoke from poorly burned timber has fine particulate pollution and hazardous air pollutant such as carbon monoxide and other hazardous air pollutants, such as nitrogen oxides, volatile organic compounds (VOCs), benzene, and formaldehyde. These particles can reach deep into the lung and other organs, causing damage, discomfort and even death. Dust particles from the air can also damage the surfaces of your home and create a gritty feel to rooms.

It is essential to use only high-quality, seasoned and dried firewood for your wood burner fireplace. Hardwoods such as oak beech, ash and are the most efficient for heating. Hardwoods are extremely dense and have more BTU than softwoods. They also provide more heat.
