A large wood Burner - www.longisland.com, May Release Harmful Particulates Into the Air

Wood burning stoves are fantastic to heat rooms, but new research suggests that they release harmful pollutants into the air. These tiny particles known as PM2.5 are linked to heart and lung issues as well as dementia.

This DEFRA Ecodesign stove is sleek and modern, heating rooms quickly and without any delay. This stove looks good in any space thanks to its large flame view, airwash system and sleek design.

The Blithfield

The Blithfield is an eco-friendly and DEFRA-approved very small wood burner stove that perfectly blends modern and traditional styles. It's got stunning fire visuals from its large porthole-esque window that's maintained clean with an airwash system. It's made to be used for burning logs and for cooking as it comes with a warming shelf and fiddle rail. It's also customisable with controls and handles available in brass or chrome in a variety of colours to match your decor.

All Clock stoves come with their unique 'clockwork' control which makes them among the most easily controlled in terms of heat output and flames on the market. This also means that they've been carefully engineered to meet the rigorous 2022 emissions level requirements of Ecodesign which is a UK-backed EU regulation that aims to improve the quality of our air.

This is accomplished by drawing in pre-heated secondary air from the bottom of the stove, and controlling the burning rate using an air control. This permits for extremely low emission. Coupled with a DEFRA-approved and Smoke Control Area exempt firebox and the capability to burn small wood burner with up to 20% moisture content this is among the best large stoves on the market.

Stovax has adopted the classic style of their Sheraton freestanding wood burner burning stove and paired it with a modern high-efficiency and low emission combustion system to create a log stove that can be easily integrated into an array of traditional and contemporary settings. The beautiful bevelled door frame and the cornicing add to the aesthetics while the sophisticated design of the firebox ensures exceptional purity of the burn, making it SIA Ecodesign ready and suitable for smoke control areas.

There are two variations of the Sheraton that are available: one that is a log store model that will sit flush within the chambered chimney breast, and a standard leg model that is ideal for fitting into an inglenook opening. Both models have a maximum heat output of 5kW, and offer great fire viewing from the large glass window. They're available in a range of finishes, including the matte black model shown and can be customised with a range of optional additional features like brass or stainless steel handles and a direct-air kit.

The Huntingdon

A large wood stove is an excellent addition to any home. It's also a great heating option, especially when it is engineered well and has a good seasonal efficiency. New log burners have to meet stringent environmental and health standards, for example, limit the emission of smoke to 5 grams of carbon monoxide per hour. To lessen the impact on your home, choose an appliance with an enormous flame image with a large window and an airwash system that ensures the glass is clean.

Stovax's Huntingdon is a huge traditional stove that fulfills all the requirements. The dedicated wood-burning and multifuel stoves are both DEFRA exempt and feature a high heat output. They also have an expansive viewing area that allows for spectacular flame views and the multifuel model comes with a unique riddling grates that can be closed burning logs. Both models come with a choice of clear or a tracery glass door which gives them a more gothic look. They are suitable for any space including country cottages to modern townhouses.

They are extremely efficient in terms of energy consumption and boast an A+ efficiency rating, ensuring your fuel is used as efficiently as possible. The Huntingdon has a second air-control feature that lets you adjust your fireplace to a continuous operating state, thereby reducing the cost of fuel and reducing emissions.

The multi-fuel version of the Huntingdon can be purchased with a riddling kit that allows for ease of cleaning and maintenance. Both models are available with either a black or graphite finish, making them easy to match with your existing decor.

All Ecodesign stoves are manufactured to a maximum of 5g CO2 per hour, which means that they are significantly less harmful than older models. This is a significant improvement as older stoves can emit up to 20g of carbon dioxide an hour. This can be dangerous to your health and increase the risk of developing respiratory problems.

The Chilli Penguin Defrost

The name implies the 4.7kW stove is designed to defrost windows after a walk in the winter or to cook the family dinner. This Ecodesign and DEFRA-exempt Stovax product incorporates three distinct features in its clean burn system to achieve its high efficiency. A combination of secondary heat-retaining glazing, combustion air jets and air flow diversion help to keep the internal temperatures high, resulting in a more complete burn of the gas produced by the fuel. This reduces harmful emissions, and also reduces the amount of particles released into the air.

The result is an efficient stove with an enormous glass window to see the fire. There are a variety of colored handles and a curved chrome pedestal to suit your interiors. The top loading stove comes with a large flat surface for the placement of kettles and pans.

Like all stoves built by Stovax, the Pengiun is compliant with the most recent Ecodesign regulations and has passed all necessary tests and inspections. It can only be used for the purpose of burning wood or smokeless fuels that have been approved by DEFRA. If you were to burn unauthorised fuels, you could be penalized up to PS1,000 an hour for the amount of particulates that are released into the atmosphere.

This is achieved with a new clean burning system that has been upgraded to include an air supply that is pre-heated that is introduced into the combustion chamber through jets and channels above the fire. The pre-heated air ignites the volatile gases created by the fuel which results in a more complete combustion and the reduction of harmful emissions. It also introduces an air cushion that is directed towards the glass, also known as an 'air wash' to give you an unobstructed view of flames.

The combination of these systems means that the new Penguin complies with the strictest emission limits and is classed as an 'Ecodesign' stove. It emits less than 20 mg/m3 of carbon dioxide if you burn wood, and 16 mg/m3 if you burn smokeless fuels.

The Go Eco

While old-style wood burning stoves are popular, research has proven that they emit microscopic sooty particles to the atmosphere. These particles are known to cause poor air quality that has been linked with heart and lung issues and dementia, as well as breathing issues. Fortunately, newer models have been made to higher standards and are DEFRA certified, which means you can still enjoy the relaxing effects of a fireplace in your home.

The Go Eco large wood burner is a wide version of the company's well-loved standard stove. It's also DEFRA exempt and SIA Ecodesign ready, which means it is already in compliance with European emission standards which will take effect in 2022. It has a large opening to enjoy the flames and an airwash system that keeps it clean. It boasts an energy efficiency of 80% rating and 5kW heat output. The larger model can fit into chimneys with larger openings and is suitable for various installation options.

Like the name suggests this is the ideal large wood burner for those who love to glamp, but is equally suitable for any home installation. This dual fuel stove comes fully equipped to heat water, cook and burn logs. It's a clearSkies level five stove, which means it emits 90% less pollution than an open woodburning fireplace, and more pollution than a stove that is older than 10 years.

The GO ECO is a DEFRA-approved multi-fuel stove that has an efficiency rating of 80% and 5kW of heat output. It's also a Level Five clearSkies stove, so it is ideal for smoke control areas and can be used with any type of wood including softwood and kiln dried timber. It's simple to operate, and comes with many different installation options like a bench, wall or pedestal. It comes with a porthole window that is kept clean by the airwashing system.
