Multi Fuel Stoves - Are They DEFRA Approved?

It is crucial to check all regulations before buying an appliance. This includes ensuring that the stove is DEFRA approved for use in smoke control zones when burning wood, and is approved smokeless coal.

The stoves come with separate air controls that supply the proper amount of air for both secondary and primary combustion. They also feature a removable grate and the ash pan to make cleaning easier.

Clean Burn Technology

Multi-fuel stoves can be used with a range of materials, including logs. Smokeless fuels, turf or peat briquettes, anthracite, and other materials are all suitable for use. In general, these kinds of substances emit less harmful emissions than logs do. A lot of our multifuel stoves feature clean burn technology, which decreases the amount of particles produced during combustion. Clean burn is also used to refer to other specific technologies that decrease emissions, such as pre-heated tertiary air or Ecodesign Ready.

A lot of our multifuel stoves feature a raised grate, or a central grate with asphan beneath it. This allows for the best combustion conditions.
