When they are not maintained properly or use wood that is of poor quality, the smoke that is produced contains fine particles, often referred to as particulate pollutants, which can irritate lungs and other body organs. Carbon monoxide, toxic air pollutants like formaldehyde and benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons are also found in. Inhaling this type of air pollution could cause irritation of the lungs, coughing, wheezing and asthma attacks. It can even lead to serious health issues like heart disease, cancer, or premature death.

Some people are concerned 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 throughout its lifespan. When burned carbon dioxide is released into the air.

Since the wood is sourced locally, it reduces the amount of pollution that is released during transportation. It is also important to select top quality woods that are seasoned and seasoned as they will provide an extended and more consistent burn than softwoods.

A wood burning stove equipped with a catalytic converter or a hybrid unit can offer the ultimate low-carbon heating solution. These units ignite the gases and particulates that were ignited during the initial combustion at a later stage by mixing them with superheated air. They then channel the remaining gases and particulates through a catalytic combustor to create an additional and final combustion, further reducing emissions to a level much lower than the standards set by the government.

Clean Burn

Cleanburn wood stoves burn fuel with the highest possible efficiency. This results in minimal dust emissions into the atmosphere when burning wood.
