It also contains carbon monoxide and toxic air pollutants such as formaldehyde, benzene, and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. Inhaling these types of air pollution can cause irritation to the lung, coughing, wheezing and asthma attacks and may even cause serious health issues like cancer, heart disease, or premature death.

Some people are worried that wood-burning stoves will contribute to climate change however this isn't true. Wood burning is a carbon neutral energy source. The tree absorbs carbon dioxide over its lifespan. When it is burned carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere.

As the wood is sourced locally, it reduces the amount of pollution that is released when it is transported. It is also important to select top quality, seasoned hardwoods as these will provide an extended and even burning time than softwoods.

Modern, EPA certified wood stoves and heaters (such as those manufactured by Charlton & Jenrick) have much lower emissions than older stoves. They have been tested and certified to meet the 2020 EPA standards, which are significantly more stringent than the previous emission limits.

These units re-ignite the particulates and gases from the initial combustion in a second stage by mixing them with superheated air. They then channel the remaining gases and particulates through a catalytic combustor for a third and final combustion, the reduction of emissions to levels well below government standards.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel with the highest efficiency. This means that there are fewer dust emissions into the atmosphere when burning wood. The stove's air management system controls the intake and venting of gases, ensuring that the combustion process is conducted in a sealed, controlled environment. It also regulates the flame's height to maximize heat output and minimise emissions.

This means that your chimney and the surrounding area will be much cleaner than older stoves. Particulate matter, also known as particle pollution, from wood that is not properly burned can cause respiratory problems, such as wheezing and coughing, and can contribute to heart disease, stroke, diabetes, and other serious conditions.
