Defra Approved Stoves
Defra Approved Stoves
You are not allowed to emit smoke from your chimney in many areas of the UK, these are known as smoke control areas or smokeless zones, unless you are burning an authorised fuel or using a Defra Approved appliance. A Defra exempt wood burning or multi fuel stove is fully approved for use in smokeless zones which are usually city, town and urban areas.
Defra Approved stoves come in a range of sizes and outputs. Additional options such as log stores, canopies, single or double doors and colours are available on many stoves so you are sure to find one to compliment your home.
Well-known and trusted brands such as Charnwood, Morso, Stovax and Mendip offer a large range of Defra Approved stoves. Some non-Defra stoves can be fitted with a Smoke Control or Smoke Reduction Kit to then become an approved appliance, these kits are specific to each stove.
