The Ecodesign regulations provide higher standards for efficiency and emissions than the federal government’s “clearSkies” program.

A Defra-approved stove will produce less smoke than a stove that is not certified. The reason for this is that they are built to ensure a continuous flow of air to the fire. This is accomplished by having a secondary and sometimes even a tertiary air intake. This prevents the stove from being depriving of air during the process of combustion and thus reduces the amount of black smoke that it produces.

Modern stoves also produce less harmful particles than older models. This is crucial because particulate matter can get into the bloodstream and be carried through the body, eventually settling in the lungs and heart. This can lead to serious health issues, including premature death.

The EU seeks to reduce pollution from all sources, despite fact that the latest models emit less harmful pollutant. It has been associated with asthma and other respiratory problems.

The government has published an Environment Plan draft to help achieve the new air quality targets. The plan aims to reduce average PM 2.5 concentrations in the UK to 10 micrograms per cubic metre by 2040. This will require a reduction in domestic fuel emissions, including wood stoves.
