If they are not maintained properly or use wood of poor quality, the smoke that is produced contains fine particles often referred to as particulate pollutants, which can irritate lung organs and other body organs. It also contains carbon monoxide as well as harmful air pollutants such as formaldehyde, benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Inhaling air pollution can cause irritation of the lung and trigger asthma attacks wheezing, coughing, and irritation of the lungs. It may also cause heart disease, cancer or premature death.
Many are concerned that wood-burning stoves can contribute to climate changes, but this isn't necessarily true. Burning wood produces energy that is carbon neutral. Throughout the lifetime of a tree it absorbs carbon dioxide and when burned the carbon dioxide absorbed is released back into the atmosphere.
Since the wood is sourced locally this decreases the amount of pollution that is released when it is transported. It is also essential to use high quality, seasoned hardwoods as these will provide an extended and even burn than softwoods.
Modern, EPA certified wood stoves and heaters (such as those made by Charlton & Jenrick) have considerably lower emissions than earlier stoves. They have been certified to meet 2020 EPA standards, which are considerably stricter than previous emission limits.
To avoid a build up of exhaust inside your home, all wood-burning stoves should be vented to the outside. By keeping flames above the logs and making sure you use dry, seasoned wood, all our current clean burn and DEFRA exempt stoves are capable of producing very clear exhaust. They also have particulate levels 60% or more below the DEFRA limit.
A wood burning stove with a catalytic converter or hybrid unit can provide the best low-carbon heating solution. These units ignite gasses and particles released from the initial burning in a subsequent phase by mixing them with superheated air. They then funnel the remaining gasses and particulates through a catalytic combustion combustor for an additional and final combustion, further the reduction of emissions to levels much lower than the standards set by the government.
Clean Burn
Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel at the highest efficiency possible. This means that there are fewer emissions of particles into the air when burning wood. The air management system of the stove controls the intake and venting of gases, ensuring that the combustion process is conducted in a controlled and sealed environment. It also regulates the flame's height to maximize heat output and minimise emissions.
This means that your chimney as well as the surrounding area will be cleaner than older stoves. Particulate matter (also called particle pollution) from incompletely combusted wood causes respiratory problems such as wheezing and coughing and can lead to the development of heart diseases such as stroke, diabetes, and other serious health issues. Wood burning can also contribute to poor air quality in cities.
The smoke from poorly combusted wood contains fine particulate matter and dangerous air pollutants, including carbon monoxide volatile organic compounds nitrogen oxides, benzene formaldehyde, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons.
