Cleaner Burning

The latest combustion technology is utilized to reduce emissions and smoke in Defra-exempt wood stoves and "clean burning" wood burners. Wood stoves accomplish this by using preheated secondary (hotter) air to make fuel burn more efficiently, while reducing harmful particles that are released into the atmosphere. The result is a cleaner, more efficient fire that emits less smoke and a more effective heating system.

Many manufacturers produced wood stoves that were not as efficient and high emissions. This was due to the fact that they were not EPA (U.S Environmental Protection Agency) and evaluated.

Nowadays, all new wood stoves must meet a higher standard of EPA emissions than their non-certified predecessors. The latest wood stoves, such as the Vermont Castings Defiant and Encore NC 1450 are certified to have an EPA rating of less than 1 gram per hour.

There is a lot of potential for further improvement in the manufacture of wood stoves.
