This permits the stoves to maintain a low level of combustion up until the all fuel is used up.

Low Emissions The UK government's Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs manages regulations and policies that concern the natural environment as well as food, agriculture, and more. One of the most important areas they supervise is smoke control, which restricts the emission of dark smoke from chimneys in urban areas (apart from certain exemptions). If you reside in a city or large town – also known as a smoke-controlled area you will require an DEFRA approved stove to burn wood and other solid fuels in a legal manner and keep your neighbors from being disturbed by noisy smoke. DEFRA stoves have been designed to pass rigorous emissions tests and minimize their outputs. They are, therefore, more sustainable than older models. DEFRA multifuels stoves are more efficient and conform to environmental standards better than open fires or wood burners. This means that you can warm a room more quickly and emit less harmful gas into the air, reducing carbon footprint. Make sure to look for the DEFRA approved logo when you are shopping for wood burning or multifuel stove. It is usually displayed on the stove's specification or title and is often followed by the letter “SE” which means Smoke Exempt. If you see it then you know that the stove has passed DEFRA's rigorous tests and can be used in a smoke-control area with fuels that are approved. Many people believe that a multi-fuel stove approved by DEFRA can only be used with smokeless fuels, such as firelogs or briquettes. However, this is not strictly correct. As long as you adhere to the instructions of the manufacturer and only burn approved fuels, you are able to burn any solid fuel on a DEFRA-approved stove, even wood that has been seasoned. To get the most value out of your DEFRA multifuel stove, you be required to only use dry, seasoned wood with an average moisture content of 20 percent. Wet wood can create excessive smoke, which can void the warranty. Mineral fuels with a sulphur level below 2% should also be avoided in order to avoid dense ash deposits. Versatility There is a wide selection of styles to choose from that range from traditional designs that will fit perfectly into the existing fireplace chamber or inglenook, to contemporary stoves that work well in homes that do not have a pre-installed fireplace surround. Many Defra approved multi fuel stoves also come with the option of adding an grate that can be multi fuel, meaning that you can burn wood and smokeless coal in addition to logs, giving you a variety of heating options. If you plan to make use of your stove as a slumber burner (overnight) then a Defra approved wood burner will not be suitable as it requires a constant air supply. Convenience If you reside in a smoke-free area, then a Defra Approved multi fuel stove is a must-have. These stoves are designed to allow the burning of wood and smokeless fuel without emitting harmful pollutants into the air. A stove that is Defra-approved will allow you to comply with local laws and prevent costly penalties. Defra approved stoves employ the latest technology for combustion to cleanly burn wood and other solid fuels. They do this by delivering the right amount of air into the firebox to prevent fuel being starved of oxygen. This prevents combustibles that have not been fully burned, like soot and ash, from being blown up the chimney into the room. This means you're far less likely to experience a blocked chimney and it's an environmental benefit too.
