Defra Approved Back Boiler Stoves

When selecting the best stove for your home there are a myriad of things to consider. The allure of dual functionality is only one of many aspects to take into consideration.

Back boiler stoves that are approved by DEFRA are a great solution to these issues. They produce very little smoke because they use the absolute minimum amount combustion air.

Clean Burn Technology

If you're looking for a hygienic burning stove with a huge firebox that is able to warm your home and provide hot water to radiators, then a defra-approved back boiler stove might be just what you're after. These stoves come with an integrated steel boiler capable of heating the central heating system while the fire is burning within the stove. This is an efficient way to make use of wood burners.

The majority of our defra-approved back boiler stoves feature a pre-heated airwash system that keeps the glass doors free of soot and ash. The secondary combustion system re-burns any particles that were not burned during the initial burning. This keeps the flue gas clear, which leads to a more efficient burn and lower fuel costs, which can save you money on your energy bills.

Some of our stoves have been tested independently and deemed Defra SE (Smoke Exempt). They do this by having an adjustment on the top air vent to prevent you from shutting it all the way which will cut off the oxygen supply to the fire. This will cause it to smoulder rather than burn cleanly which results in more pollutants being released into the air.

Another important aspect is the moisture content of your fuel. This could be a major contributor to the amount of smoke released by an electric stove. We recommend burning only dried, seasoned wood with minimum moisture content of 20 percent to ensure your stove burns as cleanly and efficiently as possible. Most of our Defra approved stoves have a built-in moisture sensor that will adjust the burn rate accordingly when using wet or damp wood.

Some manufacturers have even gone one step further to enhance the efficiency of their stoves by including an advanced clean burn system, which is controlled by a chrome pull lever on the base of the stove that opens and closes the vent which draws air over the fire reburning the initial smoke produced during the initial burning process. Our DEFRA stoves ratings SE approved ranges are now even more efficient. You can save money on your energy bills.

Easy to Clean

A back boiler stove that is DEFRA accredited stoves-approved allows you to run both your central heating and hotwater from the same system. This can be accomplished by running a loop between the other taps on your back-boiler (there are usually two) and your hot water tank. Then, you can utilize thermosyphoning to bring heat into your home. This will also ensure that your boiler does not run out of hot water as it will be supplied from the tank.

To ensure that your stove is operating at its peak performance, you must clean it frequently. Start by ensuring that the stove is not hot to the touch. Then, wipe down the main body of the stove and the door with a clean and dry cloth. We recommend using a microfiber towel since they are less harsh.

It is a good idea after wiping down your stove's interior to clean the glass. Glass cleaners can be found in a variety of hardware stores and can be used to remove stubborn marks and stains. It is recommended to apply the glass cleaner only sparingly because too much could cause damage to the surface of the glass.

Over time, the seals that surround your stove's doors and glass may begin to weaken. This can cause gaps that could leak heat and therefore it is crucial to replace these seals once each year. Depending on the model that you select, this can be done easily with stove rope, which is available at most hardware stores.

If you have an Eco Design 2022-compliant back boiler on a defra-approved stove the combustion process will be much more efficient than traditional wood burning stoves. This is due to the fact that the most recent technologies have reduced the amount of part-burned combustibles that are released into the atmosphere. The stoves that comply with the regulations are more eco sustainable and also more affordable to operate.

Another thing to remember with a back boiler stove is that it will always be a bit more expensive than a standard multifuel stove, because it will produce more hot water than a normal multifuel stove. However, it's an extremely cost-effective way to heat your home, because you can power both central heating and hot water from the same system.

Easy to Install

Boiler stoves are able to provide both heat for the room as well as hot water to your central heating system, making them a stylish and efficient work horse that could be an effective and economical solution. Contrary to other 5kw multi fuel stoves defra approved-fuel stoves which must be connected to an existing gas boiler, a wood burner with a back boiler can be connected directly to your mains hot water supply and central heating system without the need for a secondary heating system.

Wood burning stoves with a back boiler are also an excellent option for those who wish to be eco-friendly. They also produce less emissions because they burn logs or pellets, than oil or gas heating systems making them an excellent option for those concerned about global warming.

Although many people might be confused about how a wood burning stove with a back boiler works installing one is relatively simple. It is crucial to ensure that the stove is properly installed and linked to your heating system, therefore it is recommended to have this completed by a licensed heating engineer. They can assist you in making sure that your stove is properly installed and connected to the correct systems, and also making sure that all safety features are in place.

Defra Approved stoves, or Defra Exempt Stoves, as they are often referred to they have met the Department of Environment, Food and Rural Affairs (DEFRA) standards for smoke emission levels. They can be used in Smoke Control Areas and have been tested and modified to provide a clean burning that is able to be used with both wood and smokeless fuels.

As so, DEFRA approved stoves, like the Defra Exempt Dunsley Yorkshire and our top-selling Hi-Flame Aidan are able to provide high efficiency and very low harmful emissions. They have been tested according to the new Eco Design regulations which limit the amount of particulate matter as well as NOx, CO2 and organic gases the stove produces in normal operation.

Perfect for Smoke Control Areas

Smoke Control Areas are in place in the majority of UK cities and towns. Burning logs on old stoves or open fireplaces may result in a fine if the smoke is deemed to be an annoyance. The good part is that Defra-approved back boiler stoves are exempt from these restrictions if you select the correct equipment for your home.

Wood burners that are exempt from Defra have been designed with Clean Burn technology, which ensures that fuel is burnt efficiently and produces little smoke. You can still enjoy a stunning fireplace if you live in a smoke-free zone, however logs should be restricted to smokeless mineral fuels.

The stoves comply with Defra standards because they have airtight chambers that are precisely controlled for airflow. They also use triple airflow systems that ensure that combustion byproducts are burned up before they reach the chimney. This helps not only stop any smoke from causing nuisance, but also helps to reduce the accumulation of soot, which can hinder the flue's flow and reduce gas efficiency.

It is important that you buy a Defra-approved, DEFRA recognized stoves-certified stove from a trusted local retailer who can make sure that the correct size stove is selected for your home to ensure maximum heating efficiency, and that it is properly installed by a HETAS-registered installer. They can also help you choose the best type of chimney liner for safe installation and provide advice on whether your home needs additional ventilation.

Modern DEFRA approved stoves are far superior to traditional open fires or wood burning stoves. They have a minimum of 75 percent efficiency, which is not only reduces your carbon footprint but also helps you save money. Additionally, Defra approved stoves can be used in a smoke-controlled area and they will require a minimum of 6mm stainless steel twin wall flexible chimney liner, which is cheaper than the larger 12mm liners required for Ecodesign stoves.

If you are in any doubt whether your property is located in a smoke control zone, contact your local council. They can provide you with the latest information. Most reliable stove manufacturers have a dedicated Defra exempt category of their product line so that you can easily recognize these appliances when shopping.
