You may have noticed that on our website, several wood burning stoves are described as DEFRA exempted or DEFRA approved. These terms may appear to be an esoteric term to the average homeowner, but they are not.

DEFRA stands for Department for Environment, Food and Rural Affairs and they oversee policies and regulations regarding the environment, farming and food. Defra approved products have gone through rigorous testing to ensure that they meet the strict guidelines set by the government for smoke emissions when operating. They are designed to burn fuels like wood and coal more efficiently. This means they emit fewer pollutants.

It is good news for those who live in Smoke Control Area since the law currently prohibits smoke emissions in these areas, unless you use a DEFRA-approved stove with an approved fuel. In the past it was possible to install a non Defra approved wood stove in a Smoke Control Area, as long you used only approved fuels. However, from January 2022 the laws are changing and stoves that are not approved are not allowed to be installed unless they are fitted with secondary or tertiary combustion system which can drastically reduce the production of particulate matter, carbon dioxide, NOx and organic gaseous compounds.

Our Defra approved ranges are equipped with a mechanism that prevents you from closing down the top air vent completely. This could lead to the fire smouldering and emitting smoke into your home. The stoves have an adjustable air supply that allows you to open the top vent just a bit and still keep an efficient, safe burning.

Many of the Defra Exempt stoves we stock at Stove Supermarket are multi fuel stoves which allow you to use authorised smokeless fuels and seasoned wood. They are often referred to as Defra stoves or Defra approved woodburners and they are often abbreviated to SE.

Unlike older stoves, which are generally not suitable for use in Smoke Control Areas, the latest Defra multi fuel and woodburning stoves have secondary and tertiary air systems that ensure that the wood is completely burned before it exits the chimney.

They can be used in any smoke control area as long as they are burning approved fuels, such as pellets, briquettes, and logs. Stoves that are Defra approved will often be denoted with a 'SE' logo which stands for Smoke Exempt.

What is it that makes a Defra approved stove distinct from traditional multifuel stoves is that they have secondary air vents which pre-heat the air before it enters the firebox.

Defra stoves also come with internal baffle plates which help to control the flames and ensure an even heat distribution.

Defra could impose heavy penalties on anyone who uses appliances that are not approved by Defra in areas that are smoke-free.
